The first one:
I installed Boinc this morning on my laptop. It works fine but it does'nt run with full speed.
Its a Mobile Pentium 4 with 2.4GHz but the max speed which I get is 1.6GHz (viewed via the system control panel). I set the energy restrictions to maximum power but I didn't get it. Has anyone else this problem?
The second one:
I made seperate prefs for Boinc on work and home. The Boinc client gets this prefs correctly and follows them in some ways. But all what I want is, that Boinc is idle if the PC is in use or in case of the laptop on battery but this dosen't work. Seems it to be a bug?
On the second question: The suspend type prefs seem to only work if they are your general settings and you have no venue specific settings. Yes it is a bug. I have been trying to gather data for a good detailed bug report but with the servers being spotty I have not been able to.

You may have a throttle-down feature enabled in the bios, that will slow down the cpu when not in use, in order to save power.
The throttle up an down problem is now resolved. I just installed a new bios version and now it works fine. Under full cpu load it now works with 2.4GHz, otherwise with 1.53Ghz or lower. I'm glad...
