As a Beta Test team, we are well aware of the change. As the beta test progressed this year, the address changed mid-season, and I've had to write code to auto-detect which scheme is in current use. The issue has no relation to how mDNS is functioning on Linux. I've been deploying code from Linux to the roboRIO successfully using both static IP addresses and mDNS for years. As far as I can tell, the issue is that the DriverStation running under Wine can't resolve the address of the roboRIO, and there is no way to give it a static IP address. If anyone else gets further, I'd love to hear how they did it. (I'd like to develop a custom joystick driver at some point after the season, and that will be much easier under Linux.)
