How to activate Render Slave

[Heelie]

Latest NVidia drivers. Latest Plugin and Standalone versions. I activated the Plugin on the slave machine

..(and had to wait one hour before i could reactivate it on the laptop - whats this waiting time good for?)

Anyway everything is up to date but in the devices tab it doesnt show any card. Its just blank.

Should be something is wrong on your installation. A few screen shots is million times better than lot of words. Please post some capture with Octane settings window + live viewer->octane log window. I'm not sure what's your last version. 2.16 or 2.20 RC2?

[Heelie]

My Version is 2.16.

Here are the screenshots:

I also tried 2.20. It looks the same.

I see cuda device errors. Looks like a driver problem. Are you sure that your nvidia driver is higher or equal to 344.xx?

[Heelie]

Driver is just recently downloaded and the latest. The Octane standalone detects the card without a problem like i said. So it seems that the plugin is the problem.

Maybe cause its a multi core GPU?

No, i can't think more reasons. If SA works and can render anything then plugin should work well. Of course installation should be correct. Try without other plugins. Even a clean reinstall can help.

Already tried to reinstall. No luck. I dont know what else I can do about it.

Last chance: are you connecting via remote desktop?

[Heelie]

Nope. I plugged in a monitor after I figured out the remote desktop messes things up. My Power supply died so no more testing before monday.
