Unix/Linux :
Show Graphics button gives no response
(Message 25835)
Posted 4 Jan 2007 by old_user213155 Post: I also have the problem that the \'Show Graphics\' button gives no response. Problem Solved! See http://wiki.debian.org/BOINC Quoted Below... Graphics Graphics are supported, but they won\'t show up by default. The X display needs to be accessible to the BOINC graphics processes in order to see the interesting graphics for, e.g., Einstein@Home, and it isn\'t by default. Your X display can be made accessible to all local UNIX socket connections, including the ones from BOINC, by running xhost +local: This is generally safe on single-user machines, though not ideal. It is a bad idea on multi-user machines, so don\'t do it there. Then, the \"Show graphics\" button in boincmgr, or the --result ... graphics_window option to boinc_cmd, will actually work. Unfortunately, when it doesn\'t work because of failed X authorization, it does not report the error back to boinc_cmd or boinc_mgr, and the only trace of the error is in some log file in the result directory /var/lib/boinc-client/slots/<whatever> |

Posted 3 Jan 2007 by old_user213155 Post: I also have the problem that the \'Show Graphics\' button gives no response. I am using Debian Linux \'Etch\' release. The BOINC client and server are otherwise working fine, doing their calculations and reporting the results. (BOINC manager version 5.4.11) I would still like to see the visualisation graphics though. NB: I have tried doing Run \"xhost localhost\", but this did not affect things. Has anyone else managed to get the graphics working under Debian Linux? Regards, Nick Lee |
