Ah, so that's what's changed - thanks. |

I wonder why querying the status of a service requires the creation of |
| 38 |
directories under /sys/fs/cgroup. Also whether I can configure cgroups in the |
| 39 |
kernel somehow to allow an ordinary user to query a status, as used to be |
| 40 |
possible without throwing errors. This is indeed an openrc system, as you |
| 41 |
imply, there being nothing to push me towards systemd since I don't run gnome. |

That just leaves the mysterious stopping of BOINC to watch out for. |
