Hi Moussa,<br>
<br>
The current stable version of StarCluster doesn't support the new<br>
cg1/cc1 instance types. The latest github code<br>
(<a href="http://github.com/jtriley/StarCluster" target="_blank">http://github.com/jtriley/StarCluster</a>) does have support for these new<br>
instance types. I recently created a new StarCluster HVM AMI for Cluster<br>
Compute/GPU instance types that has the same software stack as the<br>
paravirtual AMIs and also includes the NVIDIA Driver/CUDA<br>
toolkit/PyCuda/PyOpenCL for GPU programming.<br>
<br>
I haven't made the AMI public yet given that 0.91.2 doesn't support the<br>
new types but if you want to test the latest github code with the new<br>
HVM AMI, send me your AWS user id and I'll share the AMI with you. This<br>
goes for anyone else interested in testing the new Cluster Compute/GPU<br>
support as well.<br>
<br>
~Justin<br>
