You will have to adjust directory locations for your apps. If you have a desktop file, it is just like any other desktop file you have in /usr/share/applications and can be simply added to Startup Applications. So I made one so that I can Dock the Manager for easy access. That is one of the things I had to do when I transitioned from 16.04 to 18.04, I found that in 18.04 the BOINC desktop file was not created. desktop files? I would think so since is it Debian under the covers just like Ubuntu. It sounds like it is running correctly from your Start Menu selection. Normally, with Linux and BOINC, just starting the Manager causes the client to start. boinmgr both did work but start a manager that asks for projects (actually I killed the first terminal session "rudely" as the prompt was gone hopefully this did not kill the client too, as now it seems to be gone too) This means when a script helps to get it running on startup are there any available, as I've no idea (as usual).Įdit: the. When I start the manager from start menu it works normal and does its job, i.e. This did not work.Īlso tried out to first start the client and then with a few seconds delay the manager, but only the latter starts but is as described empty and does nothing (all options and buttons greyed out except quitting manager). I tried this by adding the boinc-client from the init.d folder to the startup applications, actually without script but just adding it manually by selecting the file in that folder (Mint offers this in the startup appl.). If everything works, just get the client running via a Startup Applications entry or make a script to start it via /etc/init.d. Then open another root Terminal session and start the Manager./boincmgr and you can see the log of the startup of the client in the Terminal window. Open a root Terminal session in /usr/bin and type. You can always start them manually in a Terminal session to prove things out first. It sounds like you already have a desktop object to start the Manager and the only thing wrong is the client is not started before invoking the manager. does it have something similar to Startup Applications like Ubuntu? If it does you can pass the startup of the client to the command shell via something like: I’m a bit of noobie, so sometimes it’s a bit of trial and error, but I hope this might point you in the right direction.Don't know anything about Mint. My credits from the laptop are now being added to my Rosetta Account, but I set up a BOINCstatsBAM account ( Boinc Account Manager), when I also installed the BOINC client software on my main home Windows PC. I assume it is an update that installs automatically. In the case of the RP3 & RP4, they updated without having to re-install the software. I’m not sure if the software will be updated in the future to replicate the latest Rasberry Pi GUI. This GUI is the same as your screenshot (without the additional buttons at top of screen). I have also connected an old Windows laptop which uses the “Generic x86_64” pre-configured image. Originally my software for the RP3 & RP4 didn’t have the additional buttons to change the Account Key, Shutdown or Reboot etc… I have a RP3 & RP4 connected using the pre-configured images, which now has the GUI as shown by bira’s screenshot.
