Got Frustration?
1. Santa Cruz Weather Station
Mast sensors still broken
2. EPICS
no progress
3. Brini Tracker II
Buttons still work after twelve weeks week of runtime. GPS display update seems to be intermittent but is not working at this moment.
4. wktcolor
Use wktlib (from wktplot); wkt header needs c++ guard. Need a strategy to make unique vertices fro constructing faces.
5. ca-r
data file has returned, quality unknown. The data description page indicates that there are known problems.
6. AMDGPU
Started looking at AMD GPU programming after a five year hiatus. Still trying to get a working openmp toolchain. Updated kmtrun which now compiles, but it fails at runtime to initialize a work queue. Tried building tools with GCC, LLVM/Clang, AMD AOMP, and using AMD RPMs directly, and all show major problems of one sort or another. Frustrating. Is this why NVidia is ahead GPU-wise?
