Re: Running BOINC Only While Idle

Had a sudden thought. Does the "Run always" in the Activity tab over ride the idle setting? Should it be set to Run on prefs? As you see from the XML file I have also got some custon run times to avoid problems with my son. So when he is not around I go to Run always rather than the prefs.
But I have been testing the idle setting with it set to run always....

:-)

Yes, "run always" really does mean "always". That was the problem the last time someone had this issue, too - I'll add a note to the FAQ.
