BOINC Manager 7.18.1 Linux Computing Preferences page blank

That says it all. New install. Looks like everything is running but I can't adjust any settings. A search showed others with the same issue but no resolution. Tried restart, no luck. Any ideas?

Solved. The default install is the "simple view" under view. That was the issue, when changing to "advanced view" it displays the computing preferences page.

Thanks, and seeing the stats begs the question, what are you running?

Nice. Are these dedicated machines or you just run it in the background? Curious how many WCG wu's you do a day? I use to just pick old machines and run them 100% dedicated, in the last year researched building a dedicated high end machine optimized for just DC but may do stacking of raspberry Pi unless I can find a deal on a 16 core machine and time share it for personal use.

They all run 24/7, the Intel machines were all bought through the years when they were new. now they are all running Linux and just crunch boinc
The AMD machibes were bought after windows 11 made it necessary, two are used for HTPC the other one i use for editing movies.
