Re: [slim] what to use to run squeeze
Mnyb wrote: Maybe time has moved one and everything is aviable for the arm architecture ? Personally, I'm still on the fence on this one. Sure, for a client, ARM is the way to go. But for a server, it's more difficult. On x86, Atom is an option that's certainly on par or better performance-wise than ARM. (Part of the reason is that most SBCs use fairly outdated SoCs.) And even ultrabook processors (Haswell or Broadwell microarchitecture) like the i3-4005U are interesting options. You get massively more performance than with ARM. But their power consumption is quite low. E.g., the aforementioned i3-4005U has 15 W TDP but uses far less (more like 5 W) in real life. And Broadwell reduces power consumption even more. So I'm really contemplating putting my LMS on a Broadwell-based Intel NUC. They are expected to become available by the end of February. I prefer to put my data on a NAS, though. It gives me redundancy, comfortable backup solutions, and a stable, secure platform that's heavily optimized towards file storage and file server needs. poing's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=63617 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=103069 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] what to use to run squeeze
My pow . Use something x86 based ,use internal SATA drive one separate drive for the OS ( not just its own partition ) other drives for the music . The OS drive can be an SSD . Use vortexbox or some linux OS on your own , preferably annOS wihtout Desktop ( GUI ) a server OS . You will admin it trough web interfaces and ssh anyway . My HP Microserver is fast enough , today I would have opted for more RAM as the later LMS 7.9 can take advantage of that . So basically in my pow a dual core atom or better is sufficient as a server . And the good old x86 architecture has good FPU and supports most of the helper ap's that LMS uses ,this will mean that you're guaranteed to be able to use LMS fulll potential . Maybe time has moved one and everything is aviable for the arm architecture ?

Re: [slim] No sound from SB2 and SB Classic.
This sounds like a basic networking issue. Agreed. although it's specific to the Squeezebox. I can stream netflix and pandora on other devices with no issues. my WHS shows no issues with DNS or DHCP. Is there a network tool I can run to dig deeper? rmassey's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1495 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=102983 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
