It seems that the work preference "Do work while computer is in use" is ignored by projects that support GPU applications.

Please, advise.

There are now two preferences for "while computer is in use":
Suspend work while computer is in use?

and 
Suspend GPU work while computer is in use? 

Enforced by version 6.7+

I should have said that while BAM has a single preference, "Do work while computer is in use", BOINC projects that support GPU applications allow the CPU and the GPU to be suspended independently and then the BAM preferences do not propagate to those projects.

Which means I shall add the option That is, if the protocol supports it.

Willy,

The work preference to suspend the GPU when the system is in use is passed correctly to the projects, but not that to suspend the CPU.

Please, advise.

I guess you mean "run_if_user_active". It's passed to the projects just as the gpu setting ("run_gpu_if_user_active&quot.

Willy,

I set these preferences on BAM:

Code:
Do work while computer is in use? No
Use GPU while computer is in use? No

Which are passed to projects as:

Code:
Suspend work while computer is in use? no
Suspend GPU work while computer is in use? yes

Or am I missing something?

TIA

OK, made some changes.

Apparently the protocol was changed and the way the projects want to be told about "run_if_user_active" has changed.

Willy,

It looks good now:

Code:
Do work while computer is in use? No
Use GPU while computer is in use? No

Which is passed on to projects as:

Code:
Suspend work while computer is in use? yes
Suspend GPU work while computer is in use? yes

Thanks!
