Mac problems, no work!

(moderation:
I am currently running the most recent boinc software on my 1ghz powerbook. For a week or so after I moved into to college, I could get work and send work back with no problem, but now I cannot receive anything. I do not remember when this happened, but I defiantly remember doing at least a little work while here.

I have never been able to receive LHC or Rosetta work and now I can't do anything. Does anyone know what’s up? Does it have to do with the network at my school?

From looking at your computers it seems like you have a few problems. However, it does seem like there is some communcation going on because one of your hosts last contacted the E@H server on the 17th.
First, there seem to be multiple entries for your Powerbook. If this is the case, you need to merge them. Someone else will have to talk you through merging, because I've never done it.
Second, you have a bunch of client errors. Everyone of your wu has errored out for this host. I think this is due to the known graphics bug. Do you run the screen saver? If this is the case (someone help me here), then you have two options. First is not to run the screen saver. This is what I do because it takes away from the cpu cycles for the science. Or you can download the beta science app. From what I've read on the boards, it's very stable.
Someone else with more experience will have to jump in now.

[edit]Thinking aloud... Does graphics bug problem and beta app apply to Mac, or just Windows?[/edit]
