when I try to start boinc I get the following:
$ ./boinc_4.19_i686-pc-linux-gnu
2005-04-09 20:40:18 [---] Another instance of BOINC is running

However I cant find the process that should be the running client. is it possible that the client is fooled by a lock file somwhere?

Yes, in the same directory as the executable, see if there is a file called "lockfile", if there is, simply delete it.

such things just should not be writ so please destroy this if you wish to live 'tis better in ignorance to dwell than to go screaming into the abyss worse than hell
