Package: boinc-client Version: 6.13.1+dfsg-2 Severity: minor Tags: patch The boinc-client init script makes use of xhost, which uses the DISPLAY environment variable to get the default host and display to use. The init script should check for DISPLAY before attempting to use xhost:
Starting BOINC core client: boincxhost: unable to open display "" xhost error ignored, GPU computing may not be possible This trivial patch would fix it: - if [ -x /usr/bin/xhost ]; then + if [ -n "$DISPLAY" -a -x /usr/bin/xhost ]; then On the other hand, I'm not sure if this belongs into the init script at all. There's usually no display running at system init. Perhaps it would be better to drop a file in /etc/X11/Xsession.d, or add the entry to /etc/Xn.hosts. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.0.0-1 (SMP w/4 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages boinc-client depends on: ii adduser 3.113 ii ca-certificates 20110502+nmu1 ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.41 ii libc6 2.13-21 ii libcurl3 7.21.7-3 ii libgcc1 1:4.6.1-13 ii libssl1.0.0 1.0.0e-2 ii libstdc++6 4.6.1-13 ii libx11-6 2:1.4.4-2 ii libxss1 1:1.2.1-2 ii python 2.7.2-7 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 Versions of packages boinc-client recommends: ii ia32-libs 20110609 Versions of packages boinc-client suggests: ii boinc-app-seti <none> ii boinc-manager 6.13.1+dfsg-2 ii x11-xserver-utils 7.6+3 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
