Hi, I have this problem with the BOINC GUI:
When I turn off my computer, I select to stop crunching.
When I start my computer ON, the BOINC GUI (BOINC manager, the BOINC graphic interface)
is Not Connected.
But my computer was also changed:
All crunching is operative with NO MODE to stop it, neither to brutally kill the process,
that restart immediately and automatically.
When I restart the computer all crunching start automatically.
The only means to see what happen is to use the BOINC TUI (boinctui, the BOINC text interface).
BOINC TUI do not permit to change the computing preferences.
I tried with complete BOINC reinstalling without success.
I run BOINC 7.14.2 on a Lenovo i5, 6 cores, 8GB RAM, with Linux Elive 64bit (a Debian derivative),
and I run only sixtrack works.
Thank you so much for all help!!

Can you stop BOINC from the terminal command: systemctl stop boinc-client or sudo /etc/init.d/boinc-client stop?

Hi, Thank you very much for help!
I solved my problem installing Boingtasks.exe and running it via wine.
I found Boingtasks on the BOINC web site.
The program offers a GUI different from BOINC, but offers more
controls and the same options as BOINC.
Again, Thank you very much!
