I had the same issue. To fix I did sudo apt-get purge boinc sudo apt-get autoremove rm -r .BOINC rm -r .BOINC\ Manager rm BOINC\ Manager-myusernamexyz
I rebooted. then: sudo apt-get install boinc-manager Instead of launching boinc, I launched boincmgr. I think this made a difference. Added Project and User. When You see "Retrieving current status" Go to main menu (at top of screen) -> View -> Advanced View... Project -> Column Status should be blank then Issue was solved this way for me. But sure, this could depend on many things... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1516656 Title: GUI does not display properly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/boinc/+bug/1516656/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
