Just install the DebianPts:boinc package. Then start the `boincmgr` application to join the project of your liking. <<BR>> <<BR>> The remainder of this page helps the maintainers of these packages to better organise themselves.

Debian supports many more platforms than any scientific group. And with Debian, you have confidence to see have a direct correspondence between the source Debian distributes and the application one runs. For SETI, we have hence packaged also their scientific application as DebianPts:boinc-app-seti. Desire for more such redistributions? Contact us.||

Ubuntu also provides backports to earlier versions.||

From the user's perspective, BOINC has three parts:
1. The external web server, run by the scientists, that manages the data flow. After the user's registration to a particular project this server is of interest only for power users who are interested to communicate with other users or the general progress of the individual project.
- 1. The BOINC core client that is commonly wrapped by the BOINC Manager (`boincmgr`) and the only program that is actually started by the user.

The speed of the processor is measured by the BOINC core client.
