any help is greatly appreciated. ‹ How does one go about setting up a permanant Gen 244 display @ home? [Linux]: ERROR: [...] pango_layout_check_lines: assertion failed › Fri, 01/04/2013 - 05:28 — makncal Still happening_ I have been having this problem, too. Am running the 2.7b34 version. Sometimes I can connect; next time - not! Just now it showed me logged in under the options button, ( I am on Mac OSX 10.6.8); but when I went to engage the sheep, checked F2 it said that dreaded "error connecting to the server". Check back under the options and get "the server is unreachable". Odd!?

If you don't want that your screen goes black, go http://community.electricsheep.org/node/323 to Energy Savings preference in System Preferences and play with "Put the display(s) to sleep..." setting. Set it to "Never" if necessary. Hope this helps. About F2. Are you running it on MacBook, MacBook Pro? You may need to press Fn key at the same time as F2 to do really F2. It depends on your settings in Keyboard preference panel. Otherwise please tell me what is your machine and your operating system version. Thanks Tue, 10/06/2009 - 22:21 — spot you can prevent your screen you can prevent your screen from going black with the power settings, under system preferences. does F1 work? do you have Direct Draw mode on?

Sun, 10/04/2009 - 06:46 — nonzero where is it in xp I can't find silent_mode in config.xrc or with a text error connecting search of the ElectricSheep folder or in the HKLM software registry section. Where is it? Sun, 10/04/2009 - 16:20 — spot the config file is named the config file is named ElectricSheep.cfg and its location depends on your operating system, see the release notes. In a future release it will be accessible in the advanced config options, but before then we will probably have the authentication server working again. Sun, 09/13/2009 - 12:46 — xyegore Edit error connecting to the .cfg file 1) Open and edit the .cfg file in Notepad (or other text editing program). 2) Look for the silent mode field 3) Set to "true" (without quotes) [also make sure there is still a comma after it] 4) Enjoy the program without messages Note: this work-around will stiffle all messages and notifications Sat, 09/05/2009 - 09:40 — PXeuda hmm, it's seems that i found hmm, it's seems that i found a trick. unchecking the HTTP download option and render frames. No electricsheep runs for about 1 hours without the "Error connecting to server, using free one" message. bye and thanks Sat, 09/05/2009 - 07:55 — punkthink Under the Advanced tab in the Under the Advanced tab in the config try unchecking the HTTP download option. That "might" do the trick, I'm not sure though. Please report back if it works like that. Sat, 09/05/2009 - 08:06 — PXeuda i unchecking the HTTP i unchecking the HTTP download option. But i got always the same message. The message is displayed after 10min ca.. thanks Sat, 09/05/2009 - 08:35 — punkthink I guess it might be something I guess it might be something they could possibly address in a future release. Perhaps an Offline option in the config you can tick so it makes no connection attempts. Sun, 10/03/2010 - 05:34 — Rebel I assume
almost 24 hours, and all I get is "Server Request Failed, trying free one." followed by "error connecting to server." IS there actually a server out there to connect to? I am new to this, but I do like the images, What is the server IP? If I could Ping it I could make sure my PC is not blocking it, and what port does it use? Or is it just that the server is very low on bandwidth, or what? Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Thanks for the replies. I must say I find many of the "sheep" very pleasing to watch as they are displayed.
