hey ahmet!
short update: i re-installed everything from scratch and it's working now!
GPUs are still not showing up in setings/devices (are they supposed to do so?) but are clearly rendering now. in the viewport it now says Gpu: 2/2 Slaves: 1. so, everything's nice now!
one question left: how do i control the priority setings of the netrender-GPUs?
thanks again for your support and please keep up the amazing work!

ok, that's great. Gpu section only displays your local gpus, so don't worry for that. You may set priority on client machines, but i don't know is it possible or not.

hi ahmet!
i noticed that my system crashes sometimes when netrender is activated. this is happening randomly and until now i couldn't figure out what it is all about... now i noticed that sometimes the text colour of the gpu info turns from green to yellow or even red (see picture), which seems to have an impact on the probalitiy of a system-crash. what does it mean if the text turns yellow or red? may this be the reason my my systems suddenly freezes?
thanks again!

Same thing here with 2.21.1 on 10.9.5 OSX, but I think it was like that in earlier versions as well. Will look out for GPUInfo color changes.
