I\'m running the unix command line version on my intel core 2 duo macbook, but i\'m unable to display the graphics with the boinc_cmd tool. Anyone else having this problem? thanks

Which error message excatly do you get, when you connect with the BOINC cmd tool to the BOINC client ?




I don\'t get an error msg. I execute the command with boinc_cmd hit return and nothing happens, or I just get a wire frame (black and white) of the globe for a second then it just closes the terminal. I\'m using a macbook core 2 duo 2.0Ghz with 1Gb of ram. With s@h or s@h beta I have no problem viewing graphics with the command line client.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Kind Regards

Jaco

Hm, I could not reproduce your failure, because my Mac is at repair in the moment. After I get em back in the mid/end of this week, I will try to reproduce this failure.
Btw. why did you not running the graphical BOINC client on your Mac ? - The CPU and memory overhead of the GUI and graphic stuff is absoutly minimal, and the \"show graphics\" works very well.
Which BOINC version do you have running ?
