1) Message boards : Problems : BOINC doesn't want to connect with Science United (Message 1382) Posted 29 Aug 2022 by Gort Post: I, too, have no luck getting any work. Been connected to Worldcommunitygrid for many years. I keep getting messages from Science United about no work reported. I did not turn off my computer for years except to reboot for updates. I run openSUSE linux and have since the very beginning.
2) Message boards : Problems : Leaving. (Message 207) Posted 29 Apr 2019 by Gort Post: The arrogance of this "project" and the people running it is stunning! "We'll decide what your computer works on, not you." I started running SETI so long ago, I can't remember when it began. Many years ago, I dedicated my computers to cancer research. I'm not the least bit interested in my computer being used for something else. I have always used BOINC and WCG. I don't remember how I stumbled into getting SU on my computer. I do know that ever since it appeared, my computer freezes up if I leave it alone for awhile. The mouse will jump around but I have to pull the plug to get control of the pc again! I have been reading about problems getting out of SU. I'm trying it now and hope I don't have to reinstall the OS to fix it.
