Today I tried to shift a MC stack I've been developing onto a LinuxPPC box. I've managed to successfully install LinuxPPC Metacard, and get it to run. The stack complains about the small size of the x-window (640x480) - but it will still run (I've tried to get the linux box to run at a higher resolution but there are problems, and besides it's just running as a server so it isn't that important).
My stack makes extensive use of sockets (listening on a particular port and replying with information). The stack becomes unresponsive when sending/receiving requests. My question to those of you who are using MC on linux: are there any special things I need to consider in doing socket communication on a linux box? The box is running fine otherwise (I can connect to the internet, ssh in etc).... Any thoughts or suggestions most appreciated.
