• Right-click on the desktop.
• Click Properties, select Screen Saver, select BOINC.

• Under the Apple menu, select System Preferences.
• Click on Desktop & Screen Saver.
• Select BOINCSaver from the list of Screen Savers.

NOTE: BOINC runs even if you don't use the screensaver.

When active, the screensaver does the following:

• If a graphics-capable application is running, the screensaver causes that application to provide full-screen graphics. If more than one is running (e.g. on a multiprocessor) the screensaver cycles between them every few minutes.
• If applications are running but non are graphics-capable, the screensaver shows the names of the applications and their fraction done for the current work unit.
• If the core client is running but no applications are running, the screensaver shows that.
• If the core client is not running, the screensaver shows that.

Normally, if you press a key or move the mouse while the screensaver is active, the screensaver will exit. Some BOINC applications handle keyboard/mouse input. If you hold down the control key, any additional input will be passed to the application, and your computer will remain in screensaver mode. "; page_tail(); ?>
