Hi all,
----------------------------------------It would be nice to have an option to run the program in console mode on windows and linux for those who don't really need the friendly ui, just to save some cpu power. thanks,
Team Taiwan

There is quite a bit about running BOINC on the command line. Start by looking at http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/help/viewTopic.do?shortName=boinc :
Do you have a startup script for the BOINC client on Linux? There are two common ways to have BOINC automatically start on a Linux system. The first will start BOINC when you log in to your Linux system. This involves placing code into your shell resource file (such as .bashrc). The second will start BOINC when the system is started. You can read more about this at the following sites: http://www.spy-hill.net/~myers/help/boinc/unix.html#start and http://boinc.berkeley.edu/autostart_dennett.txt Then read through this thread: http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/forums/wcg/viewthread?thread=4962#39605 For similar threads, just Search for nohup. This should get you started. mycrofth |

For the UD agent, you may want to consider running it as a service.
This solves a number of problems with multiple users, as well as removing the notification area UI. |
