Additional packages to make available in the environment in which
BOINC will run. Common choices are:
-
pkgs.virtualbox:
The VirtualBox virtual machine framework. Required by some BOINC
projects, such as ATLAS@home.
-
pkgs.ocl-icd:
OpenCL infrastructure library. Required by BOINC projects that
use OpenCL, in addition to a device-specific OpenCL driver.
-
pkgs.linuxPackages.nvidia_x11:
Provides CUDA libraries. Required by BOINC projects that use
CUDA. Note that this requires an NVIDIA graphics device to be
present on the system.
Also provides OpenCL drivers for NVIDIA GPUs;
pkgs.ocl-icd is also needed in this case.
