my CPU cooler is very weak and in summer my CPU becomes to hot causing it to make that annoying "your-cpu-is-to-hot" speaker alarm...

You're going to tell us how you installed BOINC, right?

Thanks.

I'm not a *buntu person, but isn't there some sort of service/daemon manager in the GUI? Like in Fedora, it's called Service Management.

Try here or here for some ideas.

bootup-manager displays the service and allows me to stop it. however when i start boinc-manager it (obviously) gets no connection to the clients allowing me to resume them. alright, it seems what i really want is to have the boinc service be started "paused".

That should be accomplished by selecting "Suspend" from BOINC manager's Activity menu (in advanced view). Don't "Snooze", because that only lasts one hour.
