[Sussex] Ubuntu, Boinc, AMD CPU, Sudo

Afternoon,

I've got a AMD A10-6800K APU (CPU with Integration GPU) system running
Boinc on Ubuntu 13.10. I have an issue that Boinc seams to be unable to
detect the GPU until you have logged in. So I've got the system to
automatically login the user, and manually then do "sudo
/etc/init.d/boinc-client restart", now Boinc see the GPU.

The system is in a locked room so I don't mind it automatically logging in.

I've update /etc/sudoers so that this user can execute the command without
entering a password.

1) I guess my question comes down to, have other people seen this.

2) Is their a file that gets execute at GUI login, i've tried putting the
required command in .profile and .bashrc but neither resolve the issue.

Cheers,
John
