Yeah, its the plugins - I was using SlimCD for a while, but missed some of the plugins. Another problem is that the one machine (the one with the broken Ubuntu) still keeps trying to do stuff on the HD and grinds away continuously, even when running SlimCD with the internal HD unmounted! (music is on an external drive). I'm not sure what's wrong with it, but I can't let it run like that. I think I will look into installing SlimCD direct to the HD. Why do I need the IDE flash if I'm installing to the HD? -- nicketynick Wireless SB3, Denon DRA-F101, Mission M31 loudspeakers WinXP SP2 Slimserver, SMC WBR14g router http://www.last.fm/user/nicketynick/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ nicketynick's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1511 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36385 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
