Open a console and from your home directory, create a boinc installation directory. I call mine 'boinc'. Move the .gz file from your desktop into this new boinc directory. In your console, cd to the boinc directory and unpack it, e.g., 'gunzip boinc_4.13_i686-pc-linux-gnu.gz'. This will leave you with an executable. Make sure it's got the proper rights: 'chmod 744 boinc_4.13_i686-pc-linux-gnu'. Now, use locate or find to determine where all your account*.xml files are located and moved them into your new boinc directory.

Got it at long last. Thanks, Trane.

Been a long time since we met. You still in Tokyo?

Click twice on the .gz file on the desktop

Click twice on the gnu program in the .gz file

copying to /tmp/XandrosFM

and the Boinc program starts running in the /tmp/XandrosFM
path

start console

/tmp/XandrosFM

ls

returns the folder *project*, six .xml files, one .html
file, and lockfile.

No Boinc program is listed under that name.

The only running Boinc program is the program within the
.gz file on the desktop.

What step(s) do I need to take that I have not taken?

gets me nowhere as in type

./boinc --help

at the console prompt in the folder where the
downloaded boinc .gz file unpacked the program

and no information gets returned.

path is

/tmp/XandrosFM

Typing dir at the console prompt shows me a number
of .xml files associated with the LHC project, but
none of them is a Boinc file.

cd to the /projects folder

dir produces lhcathome.cern.ch, which is an empty folder

Sixtrack was running, which means that Boinc is present
on the system. But where?

Searching for Boinc using find program or folder also
comes up with no results.

I can start Boinc running by unpacking the .gz file
but by no other method.

I'm confused.

16 work units lost when the Boinc software detached itself from the project without
prompting.

Does anyone have a listing of commands
for the Linux Boinc software?

./boinc --help gets me nowhere.

It appears that I've got all processing reporting to
the one account now.

Thanks for the information.

Boinc on my Windows machines has a Projects tab.
Projects listed under that tab can be detached
locally.

The Linux client for LHC has no Projects tab.

I don't want the List Admin to do it. I want to
do it locally.

How do I call up the Projects tab for the
Linux client?

Somehow I ended up with two accounts at LHC.

The account on a Windows machine has been
working with no problems.

I set up a new Linux system today, and I think I chose the other account by mistake.

How can I detach from the project in Linux
and reattach with the same account as the
Windows machine?
