  It basically tells you what it's doing. Tourist info really. You can ignore.

  Problem was that they tried to start it from the terminal but monero-gui was already running the node

  I guess that "Failed to bind IPv4" message could be augmented with "some other process, possibly another monerod, might be already using that port", if someone wants their first commit in. It's coming up often enough.

  log level 1 shows more info when its an rpc conflict. Should probably show on lvl 0
