Hey guys, please forgive the newbie...

   Installed hobbit yesterday, and very happy...  been fighting with big
brother issues for too long :)

   I keep ending up getting 'Status not available' messages when I click
on any of the icons to view the current state of a service... 
This indicates that either you're asking for a status that does not
exist, or the Hobbit daemon (hobbitd) is not running.
2005-02-11 14:02:19 Setting up network listener on 10.2.0.9:1984
2005-02-11 14:02:19 Cannot bind to listen socket (Address already in
use)
Sounds like something else (Big Brother ?) is now running and has
taken over port 1984.
   I also notice that hobbitd and it's accosiated services have stopped.

Any known issues?
This sounds mostly like a local setup problem, with Hobbit and Big
Brother struggling over the same ressources. If hobbitd cannot start,
then all of the other Hobbit tasks will not run either.
