Boinc

I.m not sure if this place is good to present the issue.
Boinc, a cloud server for contributing processor time for various science projects, does not 
allow a net connection for identification of a user of Boinc. Not so crucial but wanted to tell this anyway. I've  lately particaped a wgc project.
Also, when Xscreensaver is on, during a pause of work, it somehow gets stuck, not reacting a keyboard output. The computer needs a reboot via power switch, don´t know any other way to find back to continue with work.
EDIT: with dex, a program downloadable with apt, launching dex /usr/../applications/boinc.desktop at autostart fixed the problem.

No, Forum Bug Reports is as the presentation text says; for Bugs in Bunsenlabs.
So, I moved it here to BL & General Linux Discussion

Hmm, might even be an support question... If Xscreensaver is hanging only when boinc is loaded, it might be an bpoinc bug but if Xscreensaver always hangs, it might be lack of good firmware drivers or...
