Hi Alfio,

thanks for the feedback. I actually was searching the internet and the list 
here (my archive does go back a few years) without luck. 

There was a reason why asked here as well: When you are using the toolchain 
you need to supply which type of GPU card you have, like the V100 for example 
in my case (see a recent posting of me). Thus, it could be that there is a 
problem with that specific tuning. It was a shot into the dark and I missed 
the target. 

In any case, thanks for your help!

All the best from a cold London

Jörg
