I am planing to grab 10.6.0 on friday and wanted to know if BOINC will run. Also does anyone know when 10.6 specific features will be enabled. from better multi processing support and GPU support will be enabled. Thanks for any feed back anyone can give. ID: 26761 ·

The answer is NO, THE BOINC SCREENSAVER WILL NOT RUN with 10.6, it appears that no old screensavers will work at all. I hope BOINC will get on an update soon! The regular BOINC manager appears to run just fine. ID: 26859 ·

(Not even Apple's older screensavers work; Apple has updated them all.) I have fixed this in BOINC 6.10.0 and 6.10.2. But of course they are still alpha releases. 6.10.0 is available from here. 6.10.2 is available from here. ID: 26892 ·

It's project applications that would use those new features, not BOINC. ID: 26969 ·
