Hav'nt....had some "real" mess to clean up... where were we? I downloaded the script...it needs more stuff, you wanted to use the 64 bit, so, does that one run?
I'm experimenting with WebGL here, it's...messy at best...some more info wold have been nice

I got troubles sorting out the dependencies...

I did'nt find the libnotify.so.4...this is a downer...

You're speaking greek. I've got no idea what you are doing.
If I did, I'd probably be doing it myself.

Well...it's not really greek - every program needs some "support" fro some shared things/libraries. BOINCtasks needs libnotify.so.4 and it camnnot find it...hence, I cannot start up the script...
Meditation should help us find the light, or...someone has to turn on the light...that's usually faster

...I'm gonna do something silly and try to run the exe file anyway...

edit - forget that, my box takes the installer apart ...

Okay, ehmm...I just used CrunchBang (a derivate from Debian, Mint is one too) but, okay, lemme try to find a Mint CD and install that...

no DVD in the house...this may just have to wait, sorry...

Sounds like you're having fun.

turning in for the night...early shift tomorrow...

edit

well, Linux is ... educational (to put it mildly) in that there's always yet an other hurdle...I've set the reminder in my phone to get a stak of DVD's so I can install Mint on the testbox...perhaps there's some stuff CrunchBang does not ship with...dunnow...

Just stumbled accross this page...maybe something witht he combo Mint/BOINCtasts?

Frodo, my laptop, only has three errors to his name and those all occurred from 4/19/2013 to 4/21/22013 with zero CPU time. Besides my issue is not errors, but CPU busy time.

But, thanks for the link.

Ooh, okay...
Let's see what is running, allow me to delve into the previous posts here to look at your TOP optput...
frankly, I may be out of my league here :/

If you have set up your box like my laptop is set up, you should have similar results unless it's the laptop that is causing the CPU Busy indicators.

Okay, just out of the blue, how about setting a higher priority for your program? You'd use renice for that...

...and the snag is: this *** box does'nt understand DVD's... :5
I doubt Mint is at the center of this, Mint is Debian based, as is CrunchBang...so there should be no significant difference...safe from the shipped bits-n-bobs...
