    I'm just starting out with the current source tree on a Mandrake 8.1 box.  Everything build, and I linked the libraries.  But, when I try to run the fonttest demo, I get could not bind port 10000 at line 392 in mothership.py.  Everything looks fine to me there.  I just want to setup a single test machine to verify the compatibility of some software.  If anybody has any suggestions, I'd be grateful.

      You might want to run "netstat -l" to see if there are any other processes currently using that port. If there are, you should change them or add an integer number as an argument to cr.Go() specifying an alternate port (i.e., cr.Go(9999) would use port 9999). This means that your CRMOTHERSHIP environment variable should be set to "YourHostname:9999" when you start the crserver and appfaker.

      Most often, the mothership can't bind to the port when another instance of the mothership is running.
