Posted 3 Jan 2011 by Ricky Laplace Post: Hi John, Thanks you very much for your elaborate response. I have followed the instructions as you indicated. The Boinc growing graphics screen saver still does not display. After the time for the screen saver to activate passes I just got a blank screen. After the last changes were made (including screen saver changes) when the screen saver kicked in I got a blank screen with a green bar at the top. Also not sure where you change the parameter for "PM suspend work if non-BOINC CPU load exceeds 30 %" as I do not see that value anywhere in my settings. Finally I recently got the following error messages at the top of the Edit Computing Preferences screen. "Notice: Undefined variable: prefs in /disks/ptolemy/c/home/boincadm/projects/sah/html/inc/prefs_util.inc on line 172" and "Notice: Trying to get property of non-object in /disks/ptolemy/c/home/boincadm/projects/sah/html/inc/prefs_util.inc on line 172" I saw that the value for "Disk: Use at most" in GB as well as % was empty, so I filled in a value for the % parameter. |

Posted 1 Jan 2011 by Ricky Laplace Post: Hi Gundolf thanks for your prompt response. I see now in the messages that there was indeed interaction despite the message to the contrary in the Boinc Manager when I pressed "Update". I have somehting else though, which is that processing was going great with the Boinc sc.saver growing graphics earlier today. When I checked the screen a moment ago I found only some static stars on a black background. Just changed number of stars and speed to 0 as a trial. Ricky |

Posted 1 Jan 2011 by Ricky Laplace Post: Has SETI been experiencing difficulties why I keep getting "Communications Deferred" and my settings summary in the messages window keeps showing the old values rather than the newly entered ones? |
