boinc-amd-opencl 7.0.27+dfsg-5ubuntu0.12.04.1 (amd64 binary) in ubuntu quantal
The Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing (BOINC) is a
software platform for distributed computing: several initiatives of
various scientific disciplines all compete for the idle time of
desktop computers. The developers' web site at the University of
Berkeley serves as a common portal to the otherwise independently run
projects.
.
Regular users (rightously) often find it an unbearable nuissance to
care for the configuration of BOINC for the OpenCL-savvy AMD/ATI
graphics cards. This package adds a series of dependencies from the
non-free section to the regular boinc package. This also meant this
binary package to be redistributed in the contrib section of Debian.
.
This package is not perfect, yet. A major problem for the moment
is the availability of the OpenCL driver for 32bit binaries for
amd64. If this is planned, install the amd-app package provided
through the AMD developer forum.
