I'm having a problem keeping the preferences as I've set them.
After some time they auto-change.


Interrupt GPU if computer is in use : no becomes yes

Suspend work when non-BOINC CPU usage is above
0 means no restriction
Enforced by version 6.10.30+ 0% becomes 25% (Even tried 100%)

Skip verification : no becomes yes

and e few others also.

I gave al the preferences of al the boinc projects I participate in exactly the same but for some reason they will not stay that way. I normally do not use the local preferences.

Around the time they 'auto-change' do you add new projects? As that can reset the web-preferences. Or does the project, that BOINC says the preferences are used from, change?

e.g. wrote:
02/01/2012 19:21:25 | CERNVM/Vboxwrapper Test Project | General prefs: from CERNVM/Vboxwrapper Test Project (last modified 23-Dec-2011 18:12:52)
02/01/2012 19:21:25 | CERNVM/Vboxwrapper Test Project | Host location: none
02/01/2012 19:21:25 | CERNVM/Vboxwrapper Test Project | General prefs: using your defaults

Did you change venue, host location?

If you have one computer only, why not use the local preferences?
