The BOINC client software on Windows and Mac OS X includes a screensaver program,
|
|
which you can select as your screensaver
|
|
(on Windows, right-click on the desktop,
|
|
click Properties, select Screen Saver, select BOINC).
|
|
<p>
|
|
NOTE: BOINC runs even if you don't use the screensaver.
|
|
<p>
|
|
When active, the screensaver does the following:
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li> 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.
|
|
|
|
<li> If applications are running but non are graphics-capable,
|
|
the screensaver shows the names of the applications
|
|
and their fraction done.
|
|
|
|
<li> If the core client is running but no applications are running,
|
|
the screensaver shows that.
|
|
|
|
<li> If the core client is not running,
|
|
the screensaver shows that.
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Normally, if you press a key or mouse 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.
