Hey, wow, Jussi, you have put in great effort trying to fix this! So I was just having this problem on Ubuntu 14.04.1LTS with boinc 7.2.42 and was disappointed to see how it doesn't look like this issue has been resolved. But, I think I just found a fix, and it'll need to bake a little longer to see if it really works. Basically, I installed xprintidle and restarted the boinc mgr and boinc client. Now, with it set to require 1 minute idling, it seems like it's working.
Install xprintidle: sudo apt-get install xprintidle Restart the boincmgr and boinc-client: sudo /etc/init.d/boinc-client stop sudo /etc/init.d/boinc-client start -G -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1274456 Title: BOINC is always suspended, if set to work when IDLE To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/boinc/+bug/1274456/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
