Does Boinc performs same as the seti ran at the command line ? Does Boinc 
has a command line mode ? I don't like all the screen saver stuff is there a 
way of not using it.

Thanks

Yes and no. Yes it works like the old in that it still processes
received radio stuff. No it looks MUCH different!
No it does not have a command line mode, although their is one
included, what happens is the gui calls the command line so their is
no advantage to running JUST the command line AND you can see how it
is going without all those /*** extensions. I run mine without the
screensaver exclusively. In the install it will ask you if you want to
install the Boinc screen saver by default, I always remove the check
mark and never have a problem.
