I am also crunching Collatz (ATI GPU only, no CPU work), and I had an issue where 6.10.5 downloaded weeks of work. Since going to 6.10.11, I have not been able to download work at all. I thought that this was because I had so much work going over the deadlines, but now that it is on the last few tasks and the client has aborted all the others that were overdue, I am getting this:

10/3/2009 9:35:37 AM rosetta@home update requested by user
10/3/2009 9:35:41 AM rosetta@home Sending scheduler request: Requested by user.
10/3/2009 9:35:41 AM rosetta@home Not reporting or requesting tasks
10/3/2009 9:35:46 AM rosetta@home Scheduler request completed

Is this a flaw in the 6.10.11 client, or is Rosetta not supporting it? Or have I got conflicting preferences somwhere?

Thanks!

Never mind!

The work fetch routines with the BOINC client have been 'interesting' in most of the 6.x group.

Never mind!

You pretty much have to let it update on it's own. When I try the work fetch manually, all it did was request new work for the gpu. It just has to work fetch for the cpu on it's own. When I tried to overclock a little too much, my computer crashed while loading Boinc. Boinc disconnected from the project and lost all the work it was working on and had downloaded. After I reconnected to the project, it took half a day for it to request work for the cpu and not the gpu. I wasn't too happy but what can you do? I just downloaded some work from WCG and waited for some Rosetta work.
