Re: Waiting for shared memory

You mean, you manage to start the BOINC daemon [boinc] manually without "sudo" under mint, or did you go to root first [yikes], then start boinc? Looking at where the boinc data dir is in your log /home/m/boinc, not sure how you installed under Mint 12. Repository or from the .sh kit? On my Ubuntu system, if I do top -u boinc, it shows all the BOINC processes owned by this limited rights user.

P.S., yes you moved quick, from UK to SA and back between posts.

Re: Waiting for shared memory

I do things the windows way mostly ....mainly because I know no better

From the desktop I select the file system where I put a folder called BOINC.

Thinking that there may be some advantage in running the 64bit version I installed it there.

If I now open that folder I click on "run manager" and get the problem

If I open the folder as admin and otherwise do the same ; no problem

No sudo's here, I do this through the graphical interface.

When you have finished laughing perhaps you can point me at a link to the right way to set up 64 bit so that I can later easily remove it.

In a month or two I am going to spend some time on learning more linux. More specifically I want to use a Centos base. Meanwhile I am just using up the spare cycles on the MJ12 rig
