OK, thanks, I seem to have it running now.

"Scheduler request pending, Project initialization, Communication deferred..."

OK, I re-installed and have the advanced view open. I have seti entered as a project but am getting communication deferred statuses. The notice says a new version is avaialble and directs me to the http://boinc.berkeley.edu/download.php download page which wants me to download 7.0.28 for Linux x64 (2.95 MB). That downloads a shell script - do I need to uninstall boinc before running this script? What commands do I need after running the script?

I believe I had seti running a few months back when I had this machine built to be a debian machine. I didn't have any problems then...

No workey. I get a simple manager view that does not respond to keypresses and which says that it is unable to communicate with the core client.

I installed with the command:

sudo aptitude install boinc-manager boinc-client

Hi - I installed boinc on a new Ubuntu 12.10 AMD64 system and all I get is a simple view of the manager. Is there a way to get the advanced view? Also, I added the seti project and it says it is downloading stuff... but I have not way to see what it might be doing. Is there more to the installation that I need to do? Some config file to get it to show an advanced view? I need to be able to control when BOINC downloads stuff - I have a crappy Hughesnet connection that will time out if I download too much stuff.
