    I would like to understand

    Lately I have been well, not quite well but well. I am very puzzled with this thing, I made some Edges tasks on the near passed with this OS and the computer exactly as it is now and what is my surprise that suddenly the project has no more tasks available for my computer.

    One of those days we will have to make a doctor degree to crunch boinc, the projects need to get more friendly (on the users point of view) if they want the help of new crunchers.

    But I would like to know anyway, why the project stopped having tasks for me?

    Thanks in advance for the explanation, in spite this is not the only project I am having problems, Docking is another example and I loved to crunch Docking.

    When having supply issues, you should first check the project's server status page. Also check if they have new apps and then check the news feed for any info related to the problem.

    Knowing what hardware you have would also help to answer your questions, plz list system. CPU, RAM, OS, BOINC Version...

    Duke, seems the project only has Linux work available right now so no go for you. If you know how to install/run VirtualBox then you can setup an Ubuntu guest to run this project.

    That explains the mystery, I had made some tasks (360 points) and then finish. Thanks F$, you are always very nice and a have a lot patience with me. I will not try to install Ubuntu VB for now.
