Comment 3 Morgan Leijström 2023-03-14 14:52:49 CET
mga8-64 OK
Updated, rebooted.

__BOINC log looks normal, some points of interest:
Version change (7.20.2 -> 7.22.0))
CUDA and OpenCL detected (but i have no workunits to run)
Using account manager BOINCstatsBAM!

__Operating OK:
Work units resumed calculations
 including VirtualBox workunits.
Communicates with projects,
 downloads and uploads workunits.
Detects when "computer is in use" (mouse/keyboard)

__Not working - but no regression; did not work ever for me when tried

It does not detect other CPU load
It does not respect exclusive applications

__Not tested:

§ running as service; I start boincmgr in a self made script to start applications in optimal order, trigged by desktop (Plasma) login.

§ GPU workunits
