Greetings...

Not sure what is going on.
I wiped out Ubuntu Studio 14.04.01 LTS (was using boinc 7.2.43)
and did a fresh install of Ubuntu Studio 14.10.
I believe the default boinc for this version is 7.4.8.
I encountered the problem tehere and used the boinc PPA to install BOINC 7.4.23.
It also has the problem:

I use advanced view.
On the tasks page, if a select a task then select the suspend page,
the task status does not change to suspended until I re-click on the task.

If I click on the Projects Tab, nothing happens until I click again on projects.
But, if I do not click on any items on the page. the pages will chang on a single click on the tab.
If I do click/select an item on the projects or task pages, the first clcick is again lost.

?? Perhaps this is a wxwidgets problem with xfce in Ubuntu Studio??

Here is window environment/stuff...

I'm stumped. I don't know where to start - other than to log in with a different window manager.
I don't care for having all of the programs that get loaded with gnome -
That is the sole reason I chose Ubuntu studio - which uses xfce.
And there were no missing events in Ubunbtu Studio 14.04.1

Silly me. I thought upgrading to BOINC 7.4.23 would be easier in the new release if Ubuntu - where all of the packages were integrated...

Suggestions??

Thanks,
Jay E.

The present test-build from Berkeley is 7.4.25, as far as I know.
There are a bad bug or two that exist in wxWidgets which a new version of wxWidgets will supposedly fix. The BOINC developers will be able to do a release of the Linux build then. How the various distros schedule things like that, we do not know.

Ah-Hah!

Thank you!!

I can work around it - just annoying.
Very glad to hear that its probably not something I messed up -
(I'm very good at that.)

I'll keep a lookout for a newer BOINC PPA..

Many thanks to Locutus of Borg....
