Been looking around without much success for Linux only BOINC projects. Is there a list somewhere to be found?

Wanless is Linux and OSX only. Same with wildlife.

Also WEP-M+2 (Here (http://bearnol.is-a-geek.com/wanless2/)) Runs on Linux and Mac but counts as the Mac OS is a derivative of Linux/Unix.

And to stretch that definition even further T4T (Here (http://lhcathome2.cern.ch/test4theory/)) is Linux only. The VirtualBox Guest VM that does the actual work for the project is Linux though VirtualBox's Host client runs on many platforms.

Then there is OProject's sub-project Shor's Algorithm (Here (http://oproject.info/)) is Linux only.

Thanks FS. I have run T4T before. I'll look at the others. Is getting ATI drivers to run in Linux as hard as I've heard and read?

From all the stuff I've read, yes. Mumps would be a good source of advice. Also, Slicker and Zombie should have some good info.

Wanless is AKA WEP-M+2.
