The folks on mersenneforum.org and PG are making this work somehow. I haven't spent the time to read through the thread, and do it myself. Just FYI. And if anyone wants to figure it out and tell the rest of us how to do it, I am all ears. ;)

I got it working reading the forums, just change the notebook type to gpu and run this code.

import os.path
!apt-get update
!apt-get install boinc boinc-client
!cp /usr/bin/boinc /content
!cp /usr/bin/boinccmd /content
if not os.path.exists('/content/slots'):
!mkdir slots
if not os.path.exists('/content/slots/0'):
!boinc --attach_project "http://www.primegrid.com/" "youraccountkeyhere"
else:
!boinc
