Mesh on Ubuntu version of Scratch

I'm running the ubuntu version of Scratch and it's great.  One issue I have seen with Mesh though is that when you try to host a mesh your IP address shows as localhost or 127.0.1.1 which isn't the real IP adddress.  Local host is actually 127.0.0.1

Anyone seen this or have a workaround?  Right now I just host from a windows machine and the linux machine can join the mesh.

Re: Mesh on Ubuntu version of Scratch

Well, I would like to host from the Ubuntu version of Scratch.  That's what isn't working.

Re: Mesh on Ubuntu version of Scratch

I think that Mesh is as yet an experimental feature, which may be why.

However, I do find it odd that they think that localhost is 127.0.1.1. Not that it's common knowledge, but it's a big mistake.
