I recently started having a problem with the BOINC screensaver. Whenever it comes up, it just seems to spazz out. It will show the screensaver for one project for about 1 sec, then switch to the BOINC logo saying activity is suspended for about another second, then switch to the screen saver for another project for one more second, and it keeps doing that over and over. I have Intel's Core2 Duo, so there are two projects running at once, so I just figured that the two projects were trying to run their screensavers at once. Is that the case? If so, how do I fix it?

Which BOINC version is this with? If not 6.2.18, then upgrade to that version as it should be fixed in that one.

I was running 6.2.14. I'll try the upgrade and see what happens.
