When I try to access the screensaver functions that require CTRL + (other key) the function shows up for a second, then the screensaver exits. Can someone help me?

Hi,

If you\'re using the 5.4.9 version of the manager, I think this problem has been raised before (see http://boinc.berkeley.edu/, who maintain that part).

Most of us don\'t use the screensaver part of things anyway, we set screensaver = blank, and \'show graphics\' instead. There are a couple of reasons for this:

* Less likely to get an error from the graphics card drivers
* The screensaver is using CPU power which would otherwise have been used to run the model

I\'ve never been able to get the \"show graphics\" option to work. I changed the screensaver to blank, but none of my current WUs (One SIMAP, one CPDN, one Rosetta) can show graphics, because the button is grayed out.

Have you clicked on the currently running wu to \'select it\' as the model to view?

Yes, and even with a WU selected, the button is still grayed out.

Late question: Have you installed BOINC as a service? (Although if so you wouldn\'t be able to see the graphs at all...)

If you have installed BOINC as a service, I would suggest this: http://www.climateprediction.net/board/viewtopic.php?p=46712#46712
