After upgrading from 1.3.35 to 1.3.41 I noticed my ircII client no longer
works. It will connect to a server, but then timeout waiting for
something to happen.
Since some of _my_ code to talk to irc servers works fine, I did some
checking, and the difference seems to be that my code uses fread/fwrite
to talk to the server (after doing an fdopen() on the socket descriptor),
whereas ircII 2.8.x uses send() and friends.
i know this used to work when I temporarily had 1.3.37 running (but I had
other problems and backed down to 1.3.35), so the break occured somewhere
between 1.3.38 and 1.3.41. unfortunately I'm not familiar enough with the
code to help much beyond this.
At least /dev/audio is working correctly with my SB16 now though. :-)
