Passing arguments to BOINC
Hello list,

I'm trying to get BOINC not to use the GPU on this machine, and it has a
command-line option --no_gpus. Looking at /etc/init.d/boinc, I see that it
allows for ARGS to have been set by the user. I've tried setting this thus:

ARGS="--no_gpus" /etc/init.d/boinc start

...but projects still tell it to use the GPU, and those I've checked don't
allow separate choices on separate machines.

I'll raise a problem with BOINC if I hear nothing here, but I just wanted to
check here. TiA.

Never mind. I've raised a couple of issues with them.

Sorry about the noise.
