I have a program over here called Nelsis, which is a CAD setup. They released a Linux version, which apparently worked, but won't here. Unfortunately, they also didn't release source (growl).
I'm assuming this is a problem with either my kernel configuration, or an incompatability between the new kernel and a previous one. I'm running 2.1.26 right now, though this has happened all through the 2.1 series. I've always run into this bug, so I'm just assuming they didn't release non-functional software in the first place.
There is supposed to be a daemon running in the background called dmpd, which accepts network connections. I straced the daemon when I ran the client programs on another VT. This is what I get:
write(4, "DMPD: [RcErrorClass:50] Error cl"..., 77) = 77 send(6, "\0\0\0\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\1\0\0\0\1"..., 1024, 0) = 1024 getsockopt(6, SOL_SOCKET, 0 /* SO_??? */, 0, 0xbffffb7c) = -1 ENOPROTOOPT (Protocol not available) close(6) = 0
Can someone explain what protocol it's trying to access which isn't available, and how I can fix it? It ticks me off they didn't release source so I could fix it, but when I mail them a bug report about it it would probably be a good idea to have some clue how to fix it.
