If we want to run BOINC at boot without need to login, we have to configure login manager (kdm/gdm/xdm/...) to accept connections. Maybe it's good to add firewall rule to block connections to UDP port 177 and TCP port 6000 afterwards (if you are on public internet) .
On Ubuntu (10.10) with GDM (default) create file /etc/gdm/custom.conf with following content: [xdmcp] Enable=true On any other distribution or login manager just google for location of config file and proper option to allow "remote" connections (xdmcp). Then edit BOINC init script /etc/init.d/boinc-client as suggested before (add to start() function): sleep 20 # wait for X server to start for sure export DISPLAY=:0.0 # maybe not necessary.. /usr/bin/xhost local:boinc &> /dev/null # add permisions for boinc to connect to X server -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/587426 Title: No GPU found -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
