Re: How to query the computer's ip address?
Rob wrote: Hi, Silly question, maybe, but is there a simple command to query the computer's ip address? Something similar to 'hostname' for finding the computer's hostname. I need the four dot-separated ip numbers. I can analyze the output of 'ifconfig', but isn't there an easier way. Thanks, Rob. If reading the output of ifconfig is really too much trouble for you, then I would suggest writing up a small script or alias to grep the output of ifconfig.

With mplayer and xmms, usually a couple of tries and the sound will work again. fstat | grep dsp will never output anything when the sound isn't working so I don't think anything else is blocking the soundcard plus I have 4 virtual channels set up so that shouldn't be possible anyway. The problem is hard to cause or predict so I can't really provide more specific situations, but I'm hoping that this has happened to someone else before. I think this has something to do with malloc(9) returning NULL. (with M_NOWAIT flag) Therefore dsp operations which requires memory allocation or realloc will fail if there is not enough memory free to immediately fullfill the alloc requests. The driver will then return ENOMEM. I've seen debug messages here indicating a return value of 12 (ENOMEM) from, I think it was some feeder init functions, but can't recall and couldn't find it in the logs anymore, sorry. Is there a diagnostic path I can take to try to find out more or should I just plug in my SoundBlaster? Also is this I should approach the driver developer about?
