[SlimDevices: Unix] Vortexbox ( Fedora release 14 (Laughlin))
I have vortexbox running on a home server and have no problems playing my own music, however I'm unable to get the server to access the outside world. On checking the logs I get Couldn't resolve IP address for: www.mysqueezebox.com I can ssh into the vortexbox server and ping www.mysqueezebox.com I've set the vortexbox with various configurations to resolve this, believing that its a DNS issue. I've set it with static IP using the gateway address as the DNS, Static with blank DNS and also DHCP. Rebooting the server each time. Neither configuration has worked. I should also apparently be able to get into the box via \\vortexbox however this doesn't work and I can only access it via the ip address. Does anyone have anything to recommend? -- chn68b Source: Squeezebox 3 Amp/Speakers: Meridian M30 Phones: Grado SR-60s Headphone Amp: Pro-ject Headbox II HP Proliant Microserver running Vortexbox Squeezebox Server http://www.last.fm/user/chn68b chn68b's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21902 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86566 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
[SlimDevices: Unix] Vortexbox or Windows Home Server
I'm about to take delivery of a HP server and wonder what I should put on it. This will be used for the squeezebox and for serving videos and photos around the home network to XBMC and an Andriod device. Will Vortexbox be suitable for this or would Windows Home Server do the job better? -- chn68b Source: Squeezebox 3 Amp/Speakers: Meridian M30 Phones: Grado SR-60s Headphone Amp: Pro-ject Headbox II http://www.last.fm/user/chn68b chn68b's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21902 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86410 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
[SlimDevices: Unix] Album Art and Linux
I'm building a pc for a mate to run his Squeezebox Duet from and he only wants to browse the net and read email from it other than this, so I'm thinking, for the purposes of speed and viruses (his kids keep installing all sorts of rubbish), Ubuntu may be a good idea. I haven't dabbled with it (Ubuntu) for ages as I built a HTPC using Windows 7 (due to a video relay issue with the video card in Ubuntu) and haven't looked back. His PC is going to be far less specced than mine, his pc will be a 2.8mhz processor and 1Gb of ram. I think it'll be good for everything, however, it must update Album art easily. This is extremely important to him. At the moment he's using Itunes on an XP machine and its all working well, just painfully slow doing anything and the kids... Is there a quick an easy way to get Album art on a Ubuntu based machine now, as I seem to remember it being a bit hit and miss? -- chn68b Source: Squeezebox 3 Amp/Speakers: Meridian M30 Phones: Grado SR-60s Headphone Amp: Pro-ject Headbox II http://www.last.fm/user/chn68b chn68b's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21902 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=80413 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] SCC 7.4.1 can't see my USB drives?
this is a real pain I can mount the drive, but every time I reboot, it cannot see the library unless I go into the library settings, point it to another location (on the mounted drive as it still see all the other folders), hit clear library and scan, then abort and point back to the music folder and rescan all over again. -- chn68b Source: Squeezebox 3 Amp/Speakers: Meridian M30 Phones: Grado SR-60s Headphone Amp: Pro-ject Headbox II http://www.last.fm/user/chn68b chn68b's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21902 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=71700 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] SCC 7.4.1 can't see my USB drives?
to get this to work so far I've done this: into terminal then: sudo fdisk-l this returned the drive info I needed, my usb drive being sdc1, then I needed to find the uid details for the user squeezeboxserver which is the default user id for the program, to do this do the following: id squeezeboxerver this returned a uid of 113 and a gid of 65534 (needed for squeezecenter to have permission to see it) I unmounted the drive from the desktop then back into terminal sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /media/external -o uid=113,gid=65534,utf8,dmask=027,fmask=137 Reopened squeezebox and had to point it to a new location initially (don't know why) started a scan on the new folder (with no music in it) aborted the scan and then pointed it back to the usb drive and it worked fine. -- chn68b Source: Squeezebox 3 Amp/Speakers: Meridian M30 Phones: Grado SR-60s Headphone Amp: Pro-ject Headbox II http://www.last.fm/user/chn68b chn68b's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21902 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=71700 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] SCC 7.4.1 can't see my USB drives?
I think that theres a problem with automounting and squeezecenter. I added this to my fstab when I was having the same problem: /dev/sdc1/mnt/media/music vfat users,umask=1000,rw,noauto 0 0 where the plural users gives read/write access to all users and it disables the automount of the USB drive. Probably not secure, but I use the drive for watching movies as well and if I set it to mount using the squeezeboxserver user id it stopped my xbmc accessing the drive as well. -- chn68b Source: Squeezebox 3 Amp/Speakers: Meridian M30 Phones: Grado SR-60s Headphone Amp: Pro-ject Headbox II http://www.last.fm/user/chn68b chn68b's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21902 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=71700 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

[SlimDevices: Unix] Where is my usb drive?
Hi Just installed ubuntu 8.10 and its all up and running, downloaded and installed squeezebox server and just going through the setup...when it asks for the music folder I cannot for the life of me find my USB drive in the list and not sure what to put into the path? Its mounted and shows on the desktop as FREECOM HDD and the folder I want is simply named music. The Mount Point listed in the volume tab for the usb drive is /media/FREECOM HDD which doesn't seem to work, so I'm assuming the path should be /media/FREECOM HDD/music, but in the squeezebox list media only shows the 2 cdrom drives. I can access the drive fine from the deskop and places. Any ideas? -- chn68b Source: Squeezebox 3 Amp/Speakers: Meridian M30 Phones: Grado SR-60s Headphone Amp: Pro-ject Headbox II http://www.last.fm/user/chn68b chn68b's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21902 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=70439 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
