Ugh. Fuckin' mail clients. It mangled my ExecStart line (and is still

P.S. - With respect to the other bug 813728 where the log has a bunch
of "No protocol specified" messages, I'm still thinking about how to
handle that one. The
-client.
I can just do a poor man's timer with a decrement counter, only
retrying failing DISPLAYs every $number of minutes, which would ease
up on the amount of entries at least.
I'm going to keep mulling this over in case I can find out a better
way to handle this.

t dropping out of scope of the function in hostinfo_unix.cpp would
close the connection automatically. With this patch, I don't see the
boinc client pilling up X11 connections like it was before.

Howdy,
I'm almost positive this is a bug introduced by my pull request to add
XSS-based idle detection back into the boinc client:

Also factor the Unix HOST_INFO code into multiple functions.

Greetings,
Well, it certainly took longer than a weekend :) But winter break is
here and I can now spend some time hacking away at this. I've had some
progress debugging the problem. I'm still working on it, but it looks
like there is a tty sitting so

live-debug with gdb could get hairy, though I could always dive into
that if I had to.

boinc to believe the computer is in use. But I can't find any logs
