Apply this patch, and run bbgen with the "--tooltips=always" option.
The patch will be included in the next snapshot (generated in a couple of hours).
Fantastic Henrik, I really appreciate you taking a look at this.
Unfortunately, it doesn't work, perhaps I have something misconfigured?
Here is what my setup looks like in hobbitlaunch.cfg:

[bbdisplay]
        ENVFILE /home/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg
        NEEDS hobbitd
        GROUP generators
        CMD bbgen $BBGENOPTS --report --tooltips=always
        LOGFILE $BBSERVERLOGS/bb-display.log
        INTERVAL 1m

I have also tried to toggle through all 3 settings and run the command
by hand with no change:

~hobbit/server/bin> bbcmd bbgen $BBGENOPTS --report --tooltips=always

There is nothing logged.

These are related, I think. It sounds like your hobbitd process is crashing from time to time.
You would think, but there is no core.  Regardless the snapshot runs
nice and smooth, error free minus the tooltips.
I am looking forward to using the next release, and probably will run
the snapshot version so I can restore our redundant hobbit servers.
