The difference is that if forgot to un-snooze, I wast precious CPU time.
But, If I select "run as in preferences" I don't waste time if I run aways of the PC and forgot to un-snooze.

No problem, I'm downgrading right now ;)

Sorry, I explain myself not right.
I always run boinc in "run always" mode, when I need more memory I switch to "run based on preferences".
I have setup that boinc only runs when I'm no using the PC.

So, if I suspend by switching to "run based on preferences", I can go away from my PC without starting boinc again.

Anyway, the previous right buttom menu in the tray was helpfull for me, but now it does not help me :(

Hi,
I just upgraded to Boinc 5.4.9 on WinXP and noted that the right buttom menu in the tray icon is not complete anymore.

It would be nice to have the "Activity" menu from the manager into the tray icon again.

I suspend/resume the aplication a few times per day, so it was handy.
Also, now that the new core in setiathome is out, using twice the amount of memory, maybe some people will suspend the aplication more when they need more memory, so the menu can help.

Thanks
Oliver
4) Message boards : BOINC client : Proxy error 100 and boinc error 500 (Message 3201)

Hi,
I have boinc for Linux 5.2.13 conected via a transparent proxy. I use squid as my proxy.

The problem I see is that in the proxy log I see an error number 100 and in the boinc client an error 500.

Here are the logs:

A working client:
1140608197.087 3022 192.168.1.1 TCP_MISS/200 248 POST http://setiboincdata.ssl.berkeley.edu/sah_cgi/file_upload_handler - DIRECT/66.28.250.125 text/plain

A not working client:
1140566460.404 2060 192.168.2.90 TCP_MISS/100 123 POST http://setiboincdata.ssl.berkeley.edu/sah_cgi/file_upload_handler - DIRECT/66.28.250.125 -

Why is the URL:
http://setiboincdata.ssl.berkeley.edu/sah_cgi/file_upload_handler
returning error 100 to my proxy?

Many thanks
Oliver
5) Message boards : BOINC Manager : Using boinc_cmd to get/set proxy info (Message 3183)

Hi,
I use boinc via command line in Linux.

I want to set a proxy for my boinc client using the boinc_cmd program.

The problem I have is that It does not seems to work.
I run:
$ ./boinc_cmd --get_proxy_settings
and get nothing

I run:
$ ./boinc_cmd --set_proxy_settings 192.168.2.10:3128 "" "" "" "" "" "" "" ""
$ ./boinc_cmd --get_proxy_settings
and get nothing also.

What I'm doing wrong?

Many thanks
Oliver
