Received this from slim support

The best I can do is this:

http://www.slimdevices.com/downloads/

Each individual nightly build is not backed up.

Does anyone have the 5/22 or 5/23 6.5 nightly, if so could you send it
to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Thanks

Sorry I don't have a daily build for you, but if you are desperate for a
working 6.5 pre-instability, you can always use subversion to checkout
the exact version that you want.

Very basic instructions here-
http://www.slimdevices.com/dev_resources.html#subversion

You will want to checkout the 5/23ish revision, rather than top of
tree, and a quick perusal of the developers forum tells me that
revision is 7504. I think you can check that out with 

Code:

svn co --revision 7504 http://svn.slimdevices.com/repos/slim/trunk



I'm not going to give extended subversion support here (I'm not
actually that good with it), but if this gets you there then great...

cheers,
#!/ben

I was getting the 5/22 version here:
http://www.slimdevices.com/downloads/nightly/SlimServer_v2006-05-22/
but that brings up a Page Not Found error now.

Do they periodically remove the older versions? If so, it would be nice
if they could leave up one version of 6.5 from before the major changes
that made it unstable.

I have the 5/19 download but when I try that one the server starts and
then stops within seconds. Can't get it going - Do I need to remove
anything? Anyone with the 5/23 download? 

Thanks

2006-06-02 Thread bklaas

hi Peter-

let me see what I can answer for you...some questions will be easier
than others.

1) I run 6.5 and have never had a problem with the remote--did you
install the latest nightly? I've been holding on updating my slimserver
while they work out the kinks of some changes to the back-end database
support. Not sure why that would affect your IR remote, but consider
loading the 21 May nightly of 6.5 and see if you still have the problem
(sorry, don't have the link to it, but maybe someone else will supply
that)

2) There is no plugin for viewing album art, but you should check your
server settings for how you have slimserver setup to read album art.
Also, there is an open issue/bug in slimserver where new album art
added after the initial scan will not show up. In order to pull in the
new cover art you have to wipe the DB clean and rescan the whole thing.
A major pain that I hope our slimdevices development team will fix in
short order.

3) This one is easy-- from the browser menu, select View-Show Toolbar,
and unselect Fullscreen. That will do a lot to enhance your browsing
experience, esp. since all of my css is depending on you being in
fullscreen mode with no toolbar.

4) I'm pretty sure after you take care of 3) you won't see 4) as an
issue either. Let me know if that's not the case.

5) Firefox tells me it's a 300x150 PNG image.

cheers,
#!/ben

2006-06-02 Thread peterashby

I installed 6.5 on 5-31 I will see if it works this evening. 

I will incorporate all of your advice this evening as I have not been
able to log onto the wireless network here.

I am not sure I understand the Album art issue, so I will tinker around
and maybe post another question.

Another bug my wife just emailed me with. When she selects XM radio to
play in the internet radio button, nothing happens!

Any ideas?

2006-06-02 Thread bklaas

No clue on the XM thing...don't use it.

I expect you will get a lot better behavior of plugins and extensions
like XM if you back off to Slimserver 6.2. 6.5 works well for me but is
still pre-release, so the t's aren't quite crossed and the i's aren't
quite dotted. Of course, there is no Nokia770 skin in 6.2, so it's a
tradeoff. I'll leave that choice up to you, but be prepared for some
wait on having 6.5 do everything you want it to do.

cheers,
#!/ben

2006-06-02 Thread Siduhe

'This' (http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.cgi?AlbumArtwork) page from
the wiki may help you out on the Album Artwork issue.

And if you do back off to 6.2 or 6.3.0 (which is pre-release but a lot
more stable than 6.5), you may find the handheld skin is good enough
for use on the 770.

It's not as groovy as the 770 specific skin, but more than adequate for
daily use IMHO.

Please be aware that the 6.5b branch has just landed some massive 
changes and is currently in an unstable state.  IIRC, the latest build 
that will be usable for most of us is the May 23rd nightly.  Check the 
Beta forums for more information.
