My Fedora Core 3 machine usually runs fine with docking, but I had a WU abort with the following in the log file:

My General preferences say
Do work while computer is running on batteries?
(matters only for portable computers) yes
Do work while computer is in use? yes
Do work only between the hours of (no restriction)
Leave applications in memory while suspended?
(suspended applications will consume swap space if 'yes') yes
Switch between applications every
(recommended: 60 minutes) 60 minutes
On multiprocessors, use at most 2 processors
Use at most 100 percent of CPU time
Disk and memory usage
Use no more than 100 GB disk space
Leave at least
(Values smaller than 0.001 are ignored) 2 GB disk space free
Use no more than 75% of total disk space
Write to disk at most every 60 seconds
Use no more than 75% of total virtual memory
Network usage
Connect to network about every
(determines size of work cache; maximum 10 days) 1 days
Confirm before connecting to Internet?
(matters only if you have a modem, ISDN or VPN connection) no
Disconnect when done?

Enforced by versions 4.46 and greater (no restriction)
Skip image file verification?
Check this ONLY if your Internet provider modifies image files (UMTS does this, for example).
Skipping verification reduces the security of BOINC. no
The only projects on that machine are Docking and LHC, each with a 100 share, but LHC doesn't have any work.
It's running Fedora Core 3 Linux and BOINC version "5.4.11 i686-pc-linux-gnu".
NOTE: This is NOT the RHEL3 machine that won't run Docking. This machine usually runs Docking fine.
