I tried viewing graphics (not screensaver) on an ABPS-wu on BOINC 6.4.7 on Fedora 10 x86_64. Looks good, but when closing the graphics window, screen went black for a second and I was logged out. Reproducible every time. "Normal" GW-wu's graphics don't have that problem here.

Thank you very much for the report, the devs are analyzing this issue at the moment.

FWIW, GW graphics crash the

FWIW, GW graphics crash the manager consistenly for me on F10 x64. It doesn't go all the way into crashing X tho. I don't have any ABPS to check.

I'm not sure if it's a E@H thing or a BOINC thing. I'm going to see if maybe Eric will release some Pirates work for testing.

If anyone knows of a project with (relatively) short WUs *and* Linux graphics, let me know. I know CPDN has graphics, but I'd rather not do a whole model just for this.

Try QMC@home, they have Linux graphics on stock apps, not on ORCA Alpha apps.

Pirates Cube graphics crashes

Pirates Cube graphics crashes the manager (both 6.6.20 and 6.6.29).

Most of the problems come (I think) from the graphic app looking for graphic libs in one place and them being in another place on my system.
