No Screen Saver
)
If you see graphics with 4.19 but NO graphics with 4.25, please post a bug report on the BOINC bug reporting page: http://bbugs.axpr.net/
This is a bug in BOINC, not in Einstein@Home.

The 'other projects' are typically using very old versions of the BOINC API library in building their graphics. We are using a version that's now about 3 weeks old (from mid-February).
Since we call the BOINC API as documented, and since the graphics DOES work correctly with the 4.19 client and earlier clients, I don't see how the problem can be in the application.
