Went live an hour ago with a hobbit 4.3 snapshot on my prod network. Wish me luck! ;) For reference I'm using the snapshot I downloaded on 1/23/08 and is listed as version 4.3.0-0.20080103.
I did see one issue that I didn't catch in testing: systems listed the non-green view which have a DESCR tag in their bb-hosts entry are displayed using both the hostname and DESCR
For example, a server that used to look like this:
host1.example.com
now shows up like this:
host1.example.com (Dell server)
Obviously this is a cosmetic thing and not a big priority, but I wanted to report it nonetheless.
I'm still poking around to see what else needs attention and will share any other findings.

Tom,
You could try this setting:
hobbitserver.cfg:BBGENOPTS="--recentgifs --tooltips=never --subpagecolumns=2" # Standard options for bbgen.
man bbgen
I cannot rid myself of the descriptions fron the non-green view unless I hack the code, not what I want to do. It is cosmetic, but it also makes it unusable for us, since the non-green view is our primary monitoring page. Having to continually scroll the screen for long descriptions is a big annoyance.
We run Red Hat Enterprise 4 x386. Tom, if you manage to rid yourself of the descriptions on the non-green view through some combination of configuration changes please let me know?
