Problem with OpenCL PS3 Fedora 12

Post by aprettz »

Hi All.

I have just installed Fedora 12 on my ps3 following this guide
http://www.elliptique.net/wiki/doku.php?id=fedora12-ps3

and the section "OpenCL Dev Kit 0.1" for the OpenCL kit installation.
I have skipped "The Cell SDK" section, because I think the necessary packages to get are just in "OpenCL Dev Kit 0.1".

So, the julia example works, it compile and it runs.....but only on the CPU, not the accelerator, if I try whith --accel option, give me "CL_DEVICE_NOT_FOUND" or something like that..
I have downloaded the program written by carlosn in the other post (http://home.earthlink.net/~carlos_neto/).
It works, but it give me only ONE device, the CPU and not the accelerator.

The spufs is mounted correctly, I see all spu[0-5] folders in the sys filesystem etc..
I tried a simple program written with libspe2 and it works.

Any idea ??
Thanks in advance.
