Anansi 1034_0 does not show as completed in the history panel, instead it shows as updating only and reporting OK.  It never completes. As you can see in the messages panel everything looks like it completed okay.

What does CPU % mean exactly and what does it mean when you get a CPU ratio warning?

Also what does it mean when there is no CPU % for a running task ?

Just installed version 2.5 Color preferences not being carried forward from older version.

What does the color mean that appears in the share % column on the project panel?  It only appears on projects running on my wireless laptop, not on any of the desktops.

In version 1.24, linking to the various projects does not always display the possible links.

EXample:

World Community  works fine.
Aqua@home  shows an thin empty selection box.

Otherwise everything is working that I have tested.

Thanks for the time being added to the message log.

How about a color setting available for task that execeed their completion time? 

Is their some other solution such as automatically aborting them?

A download failed and the WU appeared in the task Panel as a download failure, but it does not appear in the transfer panel.

I can download it, but when it comes to installing it, Norton pegs the file:

setup_boinc_tasks_0_2_2(1).exe as a high risk and removes it from the system before it gets executes.

Any ideas on how to get around it?  I turned off the firewall and added it to the do not scan list to no avail.

I finally solved this by going into Norton and turning off Sonar temporarily.

I can not change the color for GPU running.  All the rest work.  Verion 021.


Thiis works in version 022.

When I am in the display projects screen and right click mouse to look at properties, I get the wrong URL for the project I have selected.  Ex.  Selecting WCG project and look at properties I get Distrrtgen projects URL.  It seems to be random as to what URL it picks to use.  I am running in one window for each computer.

Exiting the BTB and restarting it makes not difference.  Sorting by project or resorting does not make any difference.

#4 Yes I use the combined mode most of the time.  It seems to work in the uncombined mode. 

I aee it works when you select a project that is physically on the computer selected.  The problem here is that  you need to know what projects are on what computer.

It would be better is only the projects that are on the select computer were display for selection.  The  way  around this is to always select all the computers in the combined mode (Maybe this should be the default) then regardless of which project selected it would display in stead of guessing which projects are on the selected computer.

Presently it useable but must be aware of the above problems.  This could be combersome if the user has a large number of computers and projects.  Also I do not have all the  same projects assigned to each computer.

In the uncombined mode, when you select projects, it would be nice if only the projects for the current window (computer) were displayed.  Because again you need to know what projects belong to what computer and I run approximately 42 different projects spread accross three computers.

Thanks for you help.  The more I use BoincTasks the better I like it.

1. Time is not appearing for each message in the message panel.

2. The scroll bar does not stay where you want it to in order to read earilier messages.  It keeps jumping back to the bottom of the panel.

3.  Charting does not seem to work.  Screen flickers a couple of times and then nothing.

Would it be possible to select a task and be able to go to its corresponding website?  This would prove handy when you are running lots of projects as you do not have to remember the URL address.

COmbined Panel:
 I would like to see the multiple computers merged together so that all the same status are together across all computers.
 
The ability to sort the tasks via the status as to what is shown first instead of alphabetically.  Example: I would like to see all tasks that are running at the top, followed by the task waiting to start, followed by all tasks ready to report, etc. This would have to be individually controled in preferences.  Some thing like the color scheme is.

Individual Panel:
   The ability to sort the task via the status as to what is shown first instead of alphabetically.  Example: I would like to see all tasks that are running at the top, followed by the task waiting to start, followed by all tasks ready to report, etc. This would have to be individually controled in preferences.

Overall:
Wish that we could issue commands to the BoincMgrs such as add a project, update project, suspend project, etc.  All the commands that the BoincMgr can issue.  This way the user does not have to go to each individual machine to effect those tasks on said machine.
