Diet BOINC is a no-graphics, lightweight alternative XScreenSaver module
for the boinscr screensaver.
If the Boinscr module in XScreenSaver is showing
a black screen with the words 'boinc not running'
or similar, Diet BOINC may be able to replace it with
a working alternative.
For Linux only
Dependencies:
- XScreenSaver
- BOINC software
- Python 2.x
Tested in CentOS & Ubuntu Linux. Should work in other Linux if you can run these three items.
Features
- - explicitly avoids libraries not included with default Linux or Python
- - is no-graphics, none are used beyond what XScreenSaver is already using
- - looks only for BOINC data, not the client which creates it
- - attempts to find your BOINC data without anticipating a default location
