As in title.
The exception is when I terminate boinc and run again. Then claimed credits is higher, however only time before term is counted.
Under my winXP it's fine.

log says:

[---] schedule_cpus: must schedule
schedule_cpus: time 3600.015800

but don't know if it has anything in common.

This really shows, that there's something wrong in communicating boinc - core
under wine.

Hello wijata,

In my opinion/experience so far with wine it is best to keep the wine client as dumb as possible with the least graphical stuff as possible, so if you want to avoid any experimenting and just want to crunch go back to the 4.19 client.
My win98SE client did over 80 WU's without a single problem (I don't run it any more now) with 4.19 under wine.
It's a bit of a dull advise but as long as no better Linux client is availabe it's still the most economic way to crunch with the least headaches provided you want/could run wine.

Greetings,

John,
