Message 666910 - Posted: 26 Oct 2007, 11:10:55 UTC

I have been running BOINC Manager 5.10.8 with SETI@Home on Ubuntu 7.10 for some days now without any problems. That is, downloading/uploading and computing go well. But when I select a running task and press "Show graphics", nothing happens. Does anyone know what could be wrong?

Thanks!

Wrong. I have graphics with SETI@home. Running Fedora 7 x86_64, 32-bit BOINC 5.8.16.

Remy, are you running an optimized app or just the stock/default one? What version of BOINC? Linux 32 or 64 bit?

Got the same Problem :/

I'm using Ubuntu Dapper Drake LTS (6.06.1).
I've installed from the ubuntu repository packet boinc-client and bionc-manager packages.
They contain boinc-mgr version 5.4.6 and bionc client version 5.4.9.

I'll try some other projects.

No graphics with 5.4.9 because it's too old.
5.8.16 and 5.10.21 are shown on the download page as the current stable versions.

I have graphics with 5.8.16, but never use them because, (a) pretty pictures are not a reason to run (or not to run) any project. And (b) graphics waste valuable cpu time...

Okay ... I admit I should have looked up the latest stable version.

Don't worry ... I've got one desktop system (3Ghz) and two linux servers (2Ghz) at home.
They are all woking for seti@home while I'm at school.
So I think I can waste some cpu time for pretty pictures ^^

Thx a lot for your quick answer.
