I haven\'t been able to change the screen saver settings. Any key that I touch exits the screen saver. Any one experience this same behavior? |

It affects everyone. The proceedure is supposed to be to use CONTROL + the key, but this stopped working several versions of BOINC ago. BOINC now doesn\'t pass the CONTROL key function to whatever needs it. If you need something changing permanently, then change it in the preferences on your Account page. If you just want a temporary change to look at different views, then use the Show graphics option in Tasks. Just for the record, the screen saver uses up cpu clock cycles that can be put to better use creating the model. This is because the ss is being constantly created \'on the fly\', unlike the OS supplied screen savers. Backups: Here |
