1) Message boards : BOINC Manager : Boinc Manager in Linux - shortcut? (Message 2706)

Post:
You can set a Shortcut-Icon on your desktop, by pulling the boinc_manager out of the Directory it is (with konqueror or something else) and put it on the desktop, if it asks, say shortcut.
or you link the boincmanager to a directory where it could easily beeing startet:
say your manager is named boinc_magager and it is in /usr/lib/boinc/, then go to that direcotry on the terminal and do that as root: ln -s /usr/lib/boinc/boinc_manager /usr/bin/boinc_manager
then you can start it by pressing Ctrl+F2 and typing boinc_manager (you can rename the link in /usr/bin/ by sayjing eg "ln -s /usr/lib/boinc/boinc_manager /usr/bin/boincmgr"

Update: it seems to happen after a scheduler request with a trickle-up-message to CPDN...

Hi there

On my Debian 3.1 machine, the projects clients are normally all nice-processes with a nicelevel of 19. so i change the two threads manually at startup to a nice-level of 0 or 4. Yesterday, the two sulpurs became user-processes. This happend several times before, without causing damage to any WU. I use Crunch3r's SSE2-Client, but it also happens with the official client.

I see, it happend ones again: the two sulpurs changed to user-processes. my machine:
CPU: P4 3GHz@3299MHz, HT
OS: Debian/GNU Linux 3.1
CC-Version: "Boinc 5.2.8 P4 SSE2" from http://www.guntec.de/Crunch3r/boincx86.html

It happens mainly with CPDN's sulpur, but also with LHC and Rosetta. After a Project-change (every 60 minutes), the clients sometimes run as nice, but mainly as user. At the moment, I run two sulpurs, all other projects are suspendet.

Could there be a problem with my start-stop-script? It's a bit long, so i'll post it if it is needet.

nice day
