Due to the issues with Venues not working properly I'd like to see a venue_debug option added to cc_config to show differences in preferences when swapping between projects.

Some users use different venues to have different preferences per project and I KNOW that this isn't currently working. When starting up Boinc this would reveal the actual settings, and when swapping projects it would debug the differences. For instance when currently swapping projects even though it might have a different location it isn't showing in debug that different general preferences are being used.

More power to end users to be totaly satisfied that all BOINC is working as they would like. 5.6.x - <venue_debug> option

We've had a bug report on Gentoo trying to build boinc-6.12.42 with automake-1.12 (1). Automake died with:

/usr/share/automake-1.12/am/depend2.am: error: am__fastdepOBJCXX does not appear in AM_CONDITIONAL
/usr/share/automake-1.12/am/depend2.am:   The usual way to define 'am__fastdepOBJCXX' is to add 'AC_PROG_OBJCXX'
/usr/share/automake-1.12/am/depend2.am:   to 'configure.ac' and run 'aclocal' and 'autoconf' again

I thought I'd poke my head in upstream and see where the current development efforts. It looks like you added AC_PROG_OBJCXX (2), but then decided to only use it for Darwin (3). I think the problem has to do with automake versions, not Mac-vs-Linux.

In a somewhat-related issue, I think your AC_LANG_PROGRAM quoting is off in boinc/m4/libcurl.m4 and boinc/m4/boinc_check_fcgi.m4 (4). See that section of my patch on the Gentoo Bugzilla for a fix (5).

Apologies for the outdated Gentoo version. I'll see what I can do about getting a version bump :p.

When trying to use my computer while BIONIC is running, video is very laggy and glitchy,

Manually and additional option in the right click menu of the BIONIC client icon for the task tray that would suspend just the GPU core, as use of the CPU processors does not as drastically effect operation of the computer.

Automatic modes- Maybe a "use GPU only when computer is idle" setting? Maybe "Use GPU when screen saver is active only" Mode?

I am not sure about the GPU programming package but if there is a way to tell if the monitor is off (powered off or in sleep mode) and use that to control the GPU portion of the client. Having a few seconds longer wake up time is acceptable, but trying to use the computer I currently have to suspend operation of BIONIC client to allow "normal" computer functions to take place.
