The bug seems to be in client/hostinfo_unix.cpp.
According to documentation, right after XOpenDisplay call, there should be
XScreenSaverQueryExtension call.
See http://linux.die.net/man/3/xscreensaverqueryextension .
So this:
disp = XOpenDisplay(NULL);
// XOpenDisplay may return NULL if there is no running X
// or DISPLAY points to wrong/invalid display
if(disp != NULL) {
xssInfo = XScreenSaverAllocInfo();
}
Should continue like this:
if (XScreenSaverQueryExtension(disp, &event_base_return, &error_base_return)
== false ) //Undeclared variables are integers.
//Error handling here!
I would have investigate and test this by myself, but compiling documentation
of BOINC is incorrect and workarounds presented on forums didn't help. I don't
have the patience.
