I verified that the host exists in bb-hosts. This is what I get in the log when I attempt to start hobbit. I've checked permissions and anything else I could think of, but nothing looks out of place.

Well that explains the display problem. Kick me for not checking the logs. So this is what I have in the hobbitlaunch.log:

Could be the same bug that's bitten quite a few people now: The hostname used in hobbitserver.cfg for the BBSERVERHOSTNAME and MACHINEDOTS settings is not listed in bb-hosts, causing hobbitd to crash after 5 minutes.
In that case, you should have a line "hobbitd terminated with signal 6" just before those lines in the logfile.
Make sure the hostname in BBSERVERHOSTNAME is listed in bb-hosts.
I checked the ~/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg and it has everything listed properly. This system does not have anything listening on port 1984. Any ideas? Shouldn't the binding IP address be what is specified in BBSERVERIP?
This error message is bogus, it happens because hobbitd attempts to restart too quickly after it crashes.
