[visionegg] Re: ephys_gui

Dear Joe,

Your error from ephys_server indicates some problem with networking, and I second Ethan's suggestion of checking your firewall settings.

It is certainly possible to run ephys_server and ephys_gui on the same computer.

As far as this error:

I guess this has something strange to do with how the hostnames are resolved by the Vision Egg code when running in Windows... Once you have the server running, try entering "127.0.0.1" or "localhost" or "whatever.your.computer.name.is.edu" as the hostname.

Finally, Python 2.3.4 should be OK with the ephys_server and ephys_gui. I've updated the webpage to clarify this. I now recommend using it over Python 2.2. Sorry for the confusion.

Cheers!
Andrew
