Are Linux WUs available? Applications page shows they're running.
I tried Reset. Then Update. Update.
Win7 computers getting steady supply of WUs.
Checked Preferences & Nvidia GPU selected. No CPU.
Latest Nvidia driver.

What's the trick to get Linux WUs ???

If you mean you're trying for just GPU tasks then I have the same issue.

My problem is that I have a new GPU (RTX2080S) and the application tells me to update my drivers to get tasks.

I'm already on the latest Linux driver I can find but it's less than the Windows one so no work :(

Can you please update project now? There was only windows version for new GPU till today and I released linux version sometime after your post so you should be getting some work for GPU by now.

I checked your computer with RTX2080S but unfortunately you don't have the latest nvidia linux drivers. Your BOINC client reports 440.26 but minimum required version is 440.33 and the latest version is 440.82. So you really need to update nvidia drivers.
