 Hi  I have installed boinc package on Linux Mint Debian Edition. it works but I have a problem with the computing setup. The only time Boinc consider the computer busy is when I use the consol… any other application is not taken into account, stop the computing resume… Do you have any idea on how to solve that? Thanks |

 It is actually not that, I have tried. While typing this message Boinc continue to compute. I do have to open or type in a console to have it suspended … Any other idea? Thanks |

 Are you running BOINC with Activity -> Based on preferences, or another option? If at Run Always, set it back to Based on preferences, as Run Always will ignore preferences such as these.  |

 It doesn't really interfer but en terms of noise… Noise when i am not in the room is not a problem, but when I am working it is not fun… if doing it manually, I will never restart it… Boinc manager 6.12.33 and Boinc:6.12.33+dfsg1.1 The activity is based on preference. And actually it works perfectlly when I am busy with the console. It stop and restart after 3 minutes as set. |
