thing; restart mysqld after it gets a signal other then TERM.

* Use the "role" slot of the interfaces table, instead of joining with
  node_type, to find the control interface. Must do this inside an
  inner Elab of course, since the node_types table does not reflect
  how assign selected the interface we use for the "control" network.

* Use !is_numeric() instead of is_string() to determine if the naming
  patter in alpha based instead of number based ("1" is a string).

  RobTransparentBase, just modified things to blink leds differently
(i.e.,
  toggle the yellow led on packet receive), and to
  dump original sender id, rssi, and AM type for any packet the mote
hears.
  There's an sflisten.c program that will decode and display these values.
  It requires several of the tinyos C sf header files and code.

ISUP or else they leave off at SHUTDOWN, which later confuses swapmod
(tbswap) which waits for them to reach ISUP, but of course they never
do. This is arguably a misfeature of os_setup, which should probably
not wait for nodes it didn't reboot, but I want to ponder that change.
Besides, doing this causes the nodes not to say SHUTDOWN in the web
interface.

Another change to add there (web interface) is to not say "possibly
down" for elabinelab nodes.

etc.

file if it does not exists, and then append to it. In our elabinelab
setup, there is always an existing root authkeys file, so we missed
this error.

negotiate:

# enabled=yes     port in use
# enabled=no      not used

# If a port is "in use" we assume it has talked to the switch and

# If the port is unused, we assume that the port will try to auto

# auto-negotiation on the switch to maximize the chance that we will
# sucessfully communicate with the card.

trunks for convenient checking against.

generate month by month files, and then a little index to include into the
php script.

I know, this is really important stuff! But, I was reminded to do this by a
message that Christopher Johnson (the young one) sent on April 29th about
his project. His code was quaint, but I did not think we needed a new
python script when it was much easier just to roll it into the existing
perl script that imports the commitlog.

table, if elabinelab_nosetup is non-zero, boss and ops setup will do
just enough to get the nodes into a state that hopefully approximates
what a real installation might look like before installing our stuff.
I do install the packages cause there is no point in waiting for that
to finish interactively.

From this point, you can log into the console(s) and run the setup
instructions verbatim, although I have not actually tried that yet.

The nice thing is that if you manage to get things properly setup, it
can function as a real elabinelab since the outer environment has been
setup. This is quite a bit different then how we tested during the
last release frenzy.

Its not quite perfect of course, since the images are not "clean", but
I think this is okay for testing.

is not running, and there is no locpiper to connect to. Pop up a dialog
box telling the user.

experiments can be auto fired during swapin.

inner boss and ops:

	namespace eval TBCOMPAT {
	    set elabinelab_tarfiles("boss") "/usr/site /foo/silly.tar.gz"

Ditto for "ops". You can specify multiple tarfiles of course in the
string, just as tb-set-node-tarfiles allows.

argument, treat it as a string and first split it apart. This is a
common error that many people make.

initial reverse file. Note that we still do not try to generate
multiple reverse files; that is up to the local site.

moving that robot!

new client connects, we can dump the current set to the applet. I'm
still holding off on putting them into the DB (really do not think
this is the right thing to do, but I can be convinced otherwise).

Change battery code in the locpiper so that if the data for a robot is
more then 10 minutes old, stop sending updates for that robot.

For the applet, add a little daemon thread that checks to see if
battery updates have stopped, and if so, change the color of the robot
to blue (cold and stale). This makes it more clear which robots are
working and which are turned off.

Fix collision detection code so that we test for the center of a robot
overlapping with an obstacle, rather then radius of the area it sweeps
(Tim said this was the correct thing to do).

the latter gives us one big argument with spaces, etc. escaped.

monkey around with autodetection to attempt to get carrier on
unresponsive interfaces.

Add topography as an event object type, we use this to notify applets
about dynamic obstacles.  Some event-sched fixes are also included.

	* lib/libtb/tbdefs.h, lib/libtb/tbdefs.c: Add TOPOGRAPHY object
	and CREATE event.

	* robots/emc/emcd.c: Some cleanup for the events that get sent for
	dynamic obstacles.

	* tbsetup/ns2ir/node.tcl, tbsetup/ns2ir/sim.tcl.in,
	tbsetup/ns2ir/topography.tcl: Add Topography's to the virt_agents
	table.

	* event/sched/error-record.c: Fix the format for the filenames
	generated by the program-agent.

	* event/sched/event-sched.c: Mark the start of TIME, change how
	rmcd/vmcd get restarted, and fix the ordering of some events on
	startup.

	* event/sched/simulator-agent.h, event/sched/simulator-agent.cc:
	Record when TIME starts, change how the report is generated, and
	the current time to log messages.

	* event/sched/rpc.h, event/sched/rpc.cc: Add the "virtual"
	topography name to the emcd.config, it's used when sending events
	concerning dynamic obstacles.

well tested, but will get tested now!

The gist is that Tim now generates TOPOGRAPHY events that define an
dynamic obstacle that is drawn in the applet and added to the list of
obstacles to be checked for collisons (when submitting moves).
