I'm working on implementing this now, thanks for the suggestion. Given
that opencl stuff doesn't work for the test yet, I'd like to prep for
when it does work. Right now when built for opencl/cuda I get the
following error:
OpenCL error (UNKNOWN ERROR :() in file (common-opencl.c) at line (321)
- - (Error querying for platforms)
Is this caused by my build user not having access to the device or
something else?
thanks,
Zero
