I just installed Boinc (Manager version 7.2.33) running SETI@home and Rosetta@home on a new Mac Pro, which has two AMD graphics cards. The SETI graphics show up in the screensaver just fine, but the Rosetta graphics do not. The graphics flash on screen briefly now and then and that's that. I am going to go out on limb and guess that it is because SETI@home is hogging the GPUs, not leaving enough cycles for the Rosetta graphics. Could this be the case, or is there some type of incompatibility with my graphics cards (AMD FirePro D700)?

Thanks!

Are you sure that Rosetta has a graphics application for its science application on the Mac? Perhaps best ask at the Rosetta forums first.

The only advice I can offer is to check that you have OpenGL drivers installed. But it being Mac OSX, I would think so.
