Does that title apply?
(Does Boinc have the ability to run as a screensaver in Linux, specifically, Freespire?)
If not, what is a typical usage setup for a very average PC? (I also have Boinc running as a screensaver in XP on the same machine, but it is dual boot, and I want to run different projects in the two OS'es.)

As far as I've been able to tell, you can not use BOINC graphics as a screen saver in *nix.
