Don't know if this helps or not, but you might try dynamically linking to pthread and see what happens. ;)

About getting a box closer to a backbone, great, but who will pay? and In what country. US located box are not interesting for European because of the trans-atlantic lines.

But its a fake value, because I'm sure aa server in cali arent connected on such a fast pipe as google, ICMP packet are processed differently than TCP and UDP. -ph Mm, forgot to mention. G...

Now the question is, could the bright mind who compiled the list take the job to fix a few of the items. Lets say the ones within his reach, cause even the devil his bound by the speed of light and other pestive nuisances.... ;) -ph Would love to, with the minor problem that AA is already beyond my...

Make sure DEDICATED_IDLE is set to 0 in settings.cfg to keep the server from exiting after it is idle for a while. It's set. Maybe there's another problem? Is there a log somewhere I can look at? edit: nevermind, I figured it out. ;) I still have a /etc/armagetron directory from when I had mandrake...

Hmmm, is it possible to connect in spectator mode so we can watch, and possibly heckle between rounds? ;) On another note, I just restarted the armagetronad server on my computer, apparently I need to fix some settings 'cause it keeps shutting down when players don't connect. ;( Anyways, for those o...

server side lag can't be solved by getting a better somputer, only a better server/more bandwidth for the server's connection. Respectfully disagree. ;) Server side lag can be caused by any of the following problems (and more that I haven't mentioned): 1. Bad scheduler. Running the server under Lin...

Don't know which is the problem, but have u tried switching to a raw console with CTRL+ALT+F1, login and do a killall -9 armagetronad? This way at least you will not have to reboot... I don't know if he's suffering this or not, but SDL does have a nasty habit of locking up X when it's running full ...

Blah, I don't want it if I have to give you my soul for it. What's wrong with having pride in your own work for a bit? Nothing at all. I don't mind leaving the "Written by tank" badge on there, what I mind is the "no redistribution" bit. Much of my own work for free software you...

Once I slap a written by tank sticker on it somehow, and work out the last design flaws you can have a copy of it as long as u dun remove the written by tank sticker & u don resdistribute it, ok? Not for me, then. Here you sit playing a game that's GPL, and posting on forums that are also GPL, ...

Mmm, I looked in there and didn't find quite what I was looking for. ;) I wound up copying some boilerplate init.d script for Mandrake 9.1 and adding the commands to it to make armagetronad work, with a pretty important caveat. Armagetronad, running in the --daemon mode, doesn't properly detach from...

Another test and comments

Ok, I don't have any idea what sort of sound you guys are looking for for a soundtrack, if anything, so here's a little something for an opening theme (not intended to play during actual gameplay), if you're willing to break it up into several themes like this. Comments? I'm interested in hearing ab...

Is this the DBers vs Non-DBers?

If so, I probably shouldn't play because I'd only make *their* case. ;) IN any case, if there's a shortage of players, I can probably play in the late Sunday match, the one for 12am PST Sunday Night(monday morning). You can schedule N+1 for that one, and if you get enough besides me I don't mind duc...
