Lightweight alternative to XScreenSaver's boincscr screensaver module
...If the Boinscr module in XScreenSaver is showing
a black screen with the words 'boinc not running'
or similar, Diet BOINC may be able to replace it with
a working alternative.
For Linux only
Dependencies:
- XScreenSaver
- BOINC software
- Python 2.x
Tested in CentOS & UbuntuLinux. Should work in other Linux if you can run these three items.
PyPowerMan shall be a replacement for KPowersave which is not further supported by Ubuntu.
At least it should manage the powerstate of a laptop using different profiles.
