I am not new to it, at least not to Boinc.
I use Boinc and Seti@Home since 2001 and the Gridcoin Research wallet is synced for almost one week now. Only the coins came in today.
But it should start mining or at least showing it has connection to Boinc and list my data, shouldn´t it?
My current Boinc RAC for Seti@Home is 29612
In your wallet go to helpCode:
list mymagnitude
, or alternatively
list rsa
. This should show what is being owed to you and your BOIINC Cross Project Identifier.
