Here are comments I copied from Ron Olson. It's essentially the same, using the command DNF to replace YUM. DNF is used in the VB2.4 Fedora version, but YUM still works too. One important thing to note is the last comment about updating VB using command line rather than the VB GUI button, and using the code indicated. Updating LMS nightly 2. Remove the VortexBox version of LMS: Code: rpm -e --nodeps logitechmediaserver logitechmediaserver-CPAN logitechmediaserver-vendor logitechmediaserver-firmware-ip3k 3. Restore the LMS server.prefs file: Code: cp -a /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/prefs/server.prefs.rpmsave /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/prefs/server.prefs 4. Install LMS from the Slim Devices nightly: Code: dnf install http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly/7.9/sc/34f10c2/logitechmediaserver-7.9.0-0.1.1463124735.noarch.rpm This is the latest version as of May 16, 2016. If you install on a later date, pick up the RedHat rpm version that's in http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly/?ver=7.9 5. Link required perl library: Code: ln -s /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/Slim /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/Slim 6. Restart LMS: Code: systemctl start squeezeboxserver 7. Check LMS status: Code: systemctl -l status squeezeboxserver 9. You will have to upgrade your VB 2.4 system from the command line to prevent the Slim Devices nightly LMS from being upgraded to the VortexBox version: Code: dnf clean all; dnf --exclude=logitechmediaserver* update ------------------------------------------------------------------------ jfo's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1135 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106668 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
