On the Boinc client all the menu items are greyed out, except changing the view to advanced and the help menu, and the first page in ‘other options’. *I shared this how to in spanish in my blog]( ) * There I choose Rosetta.Īnd create and user login. Choose computer and in the window fill: localhostĪnd in the key the key we copy in step5 1.Check the content of the file with: sudo cat gui_rpc_auth.cfg.If is stopped then run: systemctl start boinc-client.Test the status of the task with: systemctl status boinc-client. That’s how I solved in my machine powered by Tumbleweed: Then you create file for service for example /etc/systemd/system/rvice Of course do this with system commands not pasting my passwd line. Set its home directory to /var/lib/boinc or etc you want.īoinc:x:455:455:BOINC Client:/var/lib/boinc:/sbin/nologin On my opensuse there was not service boinc, so i created it manually instead of running it as a process.įirst create boinc user without loging in. To run boinc client you need first start boinc server. I’d really like to get this working in opensuse as I don’t want to move to another distro right now because I enjoy using opensuse. Although it would really be good if BOINC would just open and run automatically - I’ve tested it on other distros like Ubuntu and it works normally. If this is the way to run boinc I’d be grateful for some assistance. I’ve pasted the user’s recommendation at the bottom of this post. To be honest, his/her instructions are beyond me as I am new to Linux/Opensuse and have no experience with this level of technical ability. I posted the problem into Reddit, and an Opensuse user recommended I need to run boinc manually. The result is the same: I click to open the BOINC Manager, it opens and says ‘retrieving current status’ - stays like this for several minutes then I get an error message saying it can’t connect or something. I’ve tried several times installing/uninstalling, and using instructions from Fedora installation on the World Community Grid website (found here: ) Boinc does not run/connect to the client after installation on a normal user account in opensuse. Afterwards I started having trouble with applications in the root account, so created a normal user account. When I first installed suse a few days back I accidentally didn’t create a user account, and started installing software etc into the root account, including BOINC. One of the main applications I use is BOINC to run distributed computing projects on my computer 24 hours a day, and i’m a bit behind because I’m having great trouble getting the client to run. I think it’s a really beautiful distro and seems to be capable of a lot. I decided to use Opensuse a few days after doing the distrochooser test and this distro was at the top of the list - and I liked the colours and the feel!Īnyway, I’m really enjoying it. 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.I’m brand new to OpenSUSE, and Linux. 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.
