I am running bionic on a family pc and would like to know how to get it to run when other users log in. Instead of just running when I am logged on. Any help appreciated.

Install as a service, then it runs even if no one is logged in.

Or (if it is never going to be sitting at the logon prompt) use the multiple users install. However, all users must have sufficient rights to the BOINC directory tree to actually do the work. This also may not play well with fast user switching.
