Description (Last modified by Nicolas)

Einstein shows the no graphics window still, I only see the logo. See http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v289/Ageless/BOINC/einstein.png for what I mean.

Got this through 6.1.14 to 6.1.16 and now at 6.2.1. Using Einstein Power User application 4.36 for Windows.

From Rom Walton:
It sounds as though some of the applications need to be rebuilt against the latest API.

I fixed a bug awhile back:

Rom Mar 13 2008 - API: Include 'Global\' in the shared memory segment name for worker and graphics applications so that the memory can be shared across terminal server sessions.

This check-in also allows to different user accounts to access the same shared memory segment, boinc_project (worker) and user account (graphics).

The latest WCG apps should be working as far as the graphics and worker app communication goes
