The purpose of this page is to collect individual experience reports and learn to know what hardware / driver combination work with nona-GPU.

Individual Reports

  • IMPORTANT: before reporting, make sure you were using nona-gpu. When stitching from Hugin, set it in the Preferences -> Stitching tab -> activate the checkbox "Use GPU for remapping". When stitching from the command line, add the -g switch to the nona command line.
  • identify your video card. http://www.techarp.com/showarticle.aspx?artno=88 should help. select your GPU manufacturer's full list and note the exact name. The more precise you are, the better it is for everybody. Note that this is not your video card manufacturer / brand. Today most video card manufacturers get their GPU from either nVidia or ATI.
  • identify the exact driver you were using. Do so before upgrading driver, collecting reports for older drivers is useful. If you do upgrade later, make a second report for the upgraded driver.
  • copy the template below.
  • based on your video card and operating system, select the appropriate section to edit below.
  • Edit the section and append your report at the bottom of the list (but above the lines terminating the table).
  • The developers may contact you to follow up on your report.

Thank you!
