1) Message boards : Questions and problems : BOINC always "Suspended - computer is in use", when not in use Message 98530 Posted 15 May 2020 by Germano	...
2) Message boards : GPUs : Is there a way in Linux Mint 19.1 to delay boinc start at boot? Message 91860 Posted 17 Jun 2019 by Germano	Keithsplace could you try this fix. As root add file /lib/udev/rules.d/01-boinc-gpu-plugged.rules with content ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="drm", RUN+=systemctl --no-block restart boinc-client.service then run # udevadm control --reload-rules and reboot. Can you still experience the problem? Thank you P.S. This is just a workaround because a final patch will be implemented by using libudev rather than udev rules.
3) Message boards : GPUs : Is there a way in Linux Mint 19.1 to delay boinc start at boot? Message 91834 Posted 14 Jun 2019 by Germano	Among people experiencing this problem, does anybody have a Fedora/RHEL/CentOS distribution? I am going to produce a patch prototype to fix this problem
4) Message boards : BOINC client : Repeatable error in BOINC Client for CentOS Message 91586 Posted 21 May 2019 by Germano	Hello, I am the BOINC comaintainer on Fedora / CentOS / RHEL. Instead of erasing /var/lib/boinc/gui_rpc_auth.cfg, just run as root echo > /var/lib/boinc/gui_rpc_auth.cfg And it will be fine
5) Message boards : BOINC client : Boincmgr auto-launches boinc client Message 91585 Posted 21 May 2019 by Germano	I solved this problem on Fedora / RHEL / CentOS https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/boinc-client/blob/master/f/prevent_manager_from_starting_client.patch I will not make a pull request to include it into upstream BOINC. You may want to contact your Linux distribution BOINC maintainer to ask him to add the patch to your Linux distribution reporisory. Have a nice day
6) Message boards : BOINC client : Fedora 29 - Boinc 7.14.2-16 Message 91569 Posted 20 May 2019 by Germano	Hello, I am the BOINC Fedora comaintainer. I'm guessing that some sort of bug has been introduced in the packaging process and you will need to report your findings to the Fedora packagers. I'm guessing they will be the only ones able to sort out the problem. No in reality I am introducing a lot of patches to improve Linux integration, and I am filling upstream pull request where is possible https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/boinc-client/tree/master From line 38 of following spec file you can read which patches are active and their related documentation https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/boinc-client/blob/master/f/boinc-client.spec I would like also to stress out that problems regarding Fedora platform should be reported to official bugzilla https://bugzilla.redhat.com/ Thank you
7) Message boards : GPUs : Is there a way in Linux Mint 19.1 to delay boinc start at boot? Message 91560 Posted 19 May 2019 by Germano	This problem is going to be addressed upstream on Github, among BOINC issues. Thank you
8) Message boards : GPUs : Is there a way in Linux Mint 19.1 to delay boinc start at boot? Message 91558 Posted 19 May 2019 by Germano	Don't see much useful in that file I do see instead. I had to understand if that happened even with BOINC upstream systemd unit file. Can you also show us the output of # systemctl status boinc-client # lsmod
9) Message boards : GPUs : Is there a way in Linux Mint 19.1 to delay boinc start at boot? Message 91555 Posted 19 May 2019 by Germano	I have been told that on Ubuntu systemd unit file should be under /lib/systemd/system Please find boinc systemd unit file and paste it here
10) Message boards : GPUs : Is there a way in Linux Mint 19.1 to delay boinc start at boot? Message 91553 Posted 19 May 2019 by Germano	BeemerBiker, could you please show us the output of # cat /usr/lib/systemd/system/boinc-client.service
11) Message boards : GPUs : Is there a way in Linux Mint 19.1 to delay boinc start at boot? Message 91521 Posted 16 May 2019 by Germano	Hello, could you please provide following infos: BOINC client version Videocard name, driver version, where you downloaded the driver output of # cat /usr/lib/systemd/system/boinc-client.service Thank you
12) Message boards : GPUs : Fedora 25 GPUs sometimes there but reported missing Message 78685 Posted 6 Jun 2017 by Germano	Hi there, I am the BOINC co-maintainer for Fedora / RHEL / CentOS. I found out your topic because I just managed to fix GPU detection issues on AMD Radeon, and I wanted to test it on nVidia too. By the way you seem to have fixed your troubles on your own (CUDA), in a different way than I should do to enable OpenCL. I haven't yet pushed an update, I am still doing some polishing work, and I would need your help to get the best results (I do not have a machine with a nVidia card installed) Could you please provide output of: # dnf list installed \| grep nvidia # dnf list installed \| grep boinc # lsmod \| grep nvidia Thank you

17) Message boards : GPUs : [Linux] Trick to use AMDGPU-Pro OpenCL capabilities without installing the whole propertary driver stack Message 76015 Posted 18 Feb 2017 by Germano	I think that BOINC should be able to run OpenCL working unit even if the host is not running an X org server

19) Message boards : BOINC client : Please keep Github BOINC releases page up to date Message 75700 Posted 3 Feb 2017 by Germano	https://github.com/BOINC/boinc/releases looks like it is not maintained Actually, it is maintained and up to date. The 7.4 versions on the first page are Android bug fix releases. At the moment 7.6 releases start from third page. With newest branches on older pages? The releases pages are badly sorted.
20) Message boards : BOINC client : Please keep Github BOINC releases page up to date Message 75618 Posted 2 Feb 2017 by Germano	Yes, I did notice the branches on GIthub, but it is not an optimal way to provide sources versions. A package maintainer should be able to quickly find the sources of a specific (and even old) version
