We are now on client version 7.6.6 and Ubuntu version 15.10, and BOINC still cannot detect user activity. No matter what my settings, BOINC will start running, and will not stop when I use my computer until I manually snooze computation. Will this ever be fixed? Is it even on the to-do list anymore? Or is my installation somehow broken? |

It is being worked on currently. 7.6.20-ish from LocutusOfBorg's PPA should be patched to have a partially working idle detection. Please note that to have the detection working in that version you need to restart BOINC client after logging in to the desktop. |
