Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: piCorePlayer 8.0.0
Did an in situ upgrade on a pi zero and it worked well with the exception of having to reset the alsa configuration, hdmi audio. Out of curiosity, what is the issue(s) with hdmi audio? In my ignorance I would have thought that the built-in interface would be the easiest to use. v2k's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=71576 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114828 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

Versioning of Linux distribution releases can be a bit confusing, usually LaG applies but there tends to be more to it than that. If you take Ubuntu you'll get more up to date, feature wise, software with the latest release but also a shorter support cycle and have to upgrade every 9 months if you want patches vs LTS releases that are supported for 4 years. Other distributions use a rolling release cycle where there is only one version, the one you're running right now. But they can still maintain a stable and unstable branch. If you are happy with Lubuntu stay with it, upgrades can usually be done in place like MacOS and Windows. v2k's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=71576 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114791 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Picoreplayer v7000, Benchmark DAC2 HGC, Rpi4, USB no sound
This might be completely unhelpful as it is a "works for me" on different hardware. Anyways, curious as I am I checked alsamixer for my DAC (micromega mydac) on a separate system and got the same bars as the OP. I plugged it into a piCore player on a rPi3+ and got the same four bars, aplay output is also similar. To get sound through the DAC all I did was change output device to USB audio, reboot and then turn off build in audio and reboot. That was it! I did not have to change any other values, my "Output settings" is blank and "ALSA settings" 80, 4, blank, 1, blank. Sorry OP if you are still trying to get this working and have tried the default values. v2k's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=71576 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114588 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

If memory serves the UID/GID mapping is for the local system, the one doing the mounting, the remote system still uses its own permissions and the login username can be separate from them. You can use it when user don't match or you can use the 'noperm' option. v2k's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=71576 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109402 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

I don't know how long you have been running Linux but two laptops seems dedicated :) Anyway, for my part all you need to take with you is that things that look like they should work, like the network browser, doesn't always work in Linux. Should you find yourself in such a situation and there is a command line way of doing what you want then try that.

I haven't read the whole background so I'm just making things up as an example. If you installed pCP on a raspberry Pi, connected via SSH and then decided to reinstall pCP you would get new ssh-keys but since it is the same hardware and the network card has the same MAC address your DHCP server (likely home router) will assign it the same IP-address. I hope that makes sense, its a bit late here. Samba and SSH are not related. Connecting to samba shares via the file explorer in your DE is hit and miss with emphasis on miss, you are much better of using the command line. One possible reason for one of your laptops failing to connect could be that the cifs-tools package is not installed. v2k's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=71576 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114532 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

It sounds a bit like my efforts to get LMS running in Ubuntu on a RPi (and failing miserably), it would show a + for the service but I couldn't connect.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Need Help getting LMS to run on Ubuntu on Pi 4
I'll have to bow out and leave it to the man in the van. I've tried installing a bunch of perl modules but so far without luck but at least it got my memory working. My installations of LMS 8.1.1 and their results: Ubuntu server 20.04 and 18.04 on intel - LMS and local player plugin works. Raspberry PI OS (current...) - LMS works, can not get local player to output audio, works if I manually start the bin. Ubuntu server 20.04 and 18.04 on raspberry - can not get LMS to work. I don't have the PI OS install any more but the ubuntus run perl 5.26.1 or 5.30. It is probably related to perl somehow but I don't know enough about it to tell.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Need Help getting LMS to run on Ubuntu on Pi 4
I just did this but still can't remember much :) My issue was that LMS was seen as running but I couldn't connect to it. It turned out that a bunch of perl libraries was missing. If you stop the service (sudo service logitechmediaserver stop) and then run it manually (squeezeboxserver) it ought to tell you what's missing. How did you have to change the filenames? As far as I know Linux filenames are quite forgiving. v2k's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=71576 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114477 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
