Originalnachricht |
Name : boinc-client Product : Fedora 19 Version : 7.2.33 Release : 2.git1994cc8.fc19 URL : http://boinc.berkeley.edu/ Summary : The BOINC client core Description : The Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing (BOINC) is an open- source software platform which supports distributed computing, primarily in the form of "volunteer" computing and "desktop Grid" computing. It is well suited for problems which are often described as "trivially parallel". BOINC is the underlying software used by projects such as SETI@home, Einstein@Home, ClimatePrediciton.net, the World Community Grid, and many other distributed computing projects.
This package installs the BOINC client software, which will allow your computer to participate in one or more BOINC projects, using your spare computer time to search for cures for diseases, model protein folding, study global warming, discover sources of gravitational waves, and many other types of scientific and mathematical research.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Update Information:
*Updates Boinc to 7.2.33.
*Remove the "Can't connect to boinc-client" notify at startup.
*Fix "GPU not detected" problem.
*Fix security vulnerability #957811
**Please note for "GPU not detected" bug**
If you still have this problem after updating, you need to run boinc with your user, not with boinc user.
To do that, add your user to boinc group:
'useradd -G boinc <your_username>'
Disable boinc daemon:
'systemctl disable boinc-client.service'
'systemctl stop boinc-client.service'
Change directory and files permissions:
'chmod -R g+rw /var/lib/boinc'
'chmod g+rw /var/log/boinc*'
Logout and login again.
Now run boinc using this command (under your user):
'/usr/bin/boinc_gpu'
If you want to autostart boinc after login you need to configure your DE to do that. See instruction specific to your DE on how to do that.
