Try stopping apparmor with the command sudo service apparmor stop. When I try this I get sudo: service: command not found. I looked for service using the synaptic package manager and couldn't find it. Also, I'm not sure that apparmor is running on my system. I do ps ax | grep apparmor and the only thing that comes back is a process for grep apparmor. Restart squeezecenter with service squeezecenter restart Squeezecenter is now apparently starting whenever I boot linux. It starts and goes into its infinite loop. (I see this happening in the log in /var/log.) Is there some way to stop it? Check System Administration System Monitor - you should see the squeezecenter processes. It doesn't show up in System Monitor, but I do see it when I do ps ax | grep squeezecenter with similar results as I posted in an earlier message. The fix for the apparmor problem is not included in SC 7.0, and you will have to upgrade to 7.0.1 to make SC run with apparmor. To install 7.0.1, do I just repeat the process that I went through with 7.0 using a different source as described in the wiki? Do I have to remove 7.0 first? If so, could you tell me how to do it?

I tried sudo /etc/init.d/squeezecenter start and it did say Starting SqueezeCenter Audio Server, which it did before when I ran the command without the sudo. However, Firefox still gives me page load errors. Same blue light on my receiver. Also, I looked at the Processes tab in the System Monitor and I didn't see anything that looked like squeezecenter. I did the ps command and got the following: 113 5697 0.0 0.0 17864 1644 ?S19:46 0:00 /bin/bash /usr/sbin/squeezecenter_safe /usr/sbin/squeezecenter-server --prefsdir /var/lib/squeezecenter/prefs --logdir /var/log/squeezecenter/ --cachedir /var/lib/squeezecenter/cache 113 7710 0.0 0.0 10704 1632 ?S20:12 0:00 /bin/bash /usr/sbin/squeezecenter_safe /usr/sbin/squeezecenter-server --prefsdir /var/lib/squeezecenter/prefs --logdir /var/log/squeezecenter/ --cachedir /var/lib/squeezecenter/cache 113 8943 0.0 0.0 10704 1636 ?S20:37 0:00 /bin/bash /usr/sbin/squeezecenter_safe /usr/sbin/squeezecenter-server --prefsdir /var/lib/squeezecenter/prefs --logdir /var/log/squeezecenter/ --cachedir /var/lib/squeezecenter/cache 113 10076 0.0 0.0 10700 1624 ?S20:55 0:00 /bin/bash /usr/sbin/squeezecenter_safe /usr/sbin/squeezecenter-server --prefsdir /var/lib/squeezecenter/prefs --logdir /var/log/squeezecenter/ --cachedir /var/lib/squeezecenter/cache 113 10243 4.8 1.8 152724 74640 ?S20:58 0:00 /usr/bin/perl -w /usr/sbin/squeezecenter-server --prefsdir /var/lib/squeezecenter/prefs --logdir /var/log/squeezecenter/ --cachedir /var/lib/squeezecenter/cache 113 10251 34.0 1.8 152724 74640 ?S20:58 0:00 /usr/bin/perl -w /usr/sbin/squeezecenter-server --prefsdir /var/lib/squeezecenter/prefs --logdir /var/log/squeezecenter/ --cachedir /var/lib/squeezecenter/cache 113 10256 68.0 1.8 151496 74472 ?S20:58 0:00 /usr/bin/perl -w /usr/sbin/squeezecenter-server --prefsdir /var/lib/squeezecenter/prefs --logdir /var/log/squeezecenter/ --cachedir /var/lib/squeezecenter/cache 113 10261 0.0 0.8 108072 34900 ?R20:58 0:00 /usr/bin/perl -w /usr/sbin/squeezecenter-server --prefsdir /var/lib/squeezecenter/prefs --logdir /var/log/squeezecenter/ --cachedir /var/lib/squeezecenter/cache geoff10264 0.0 0.032856 pts/0R+ 20:58 0:00 grep squeezecenter -- MadCityGeoff MadCityGeoff's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17429 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=47494 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix

My desktops are Ubuntu, and ubuntu is based on debian, so its nearly all the same.

can you find the log file? They are probably in /var/log/squeezecenter The log shows a zillion entries like this: [08-05-10 21:27:23.7110] Slim::Utils::MySQLHelper::createSystemTables (433) FATAL: Couldn't connect to database: [Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/squeezecenter-mysql.sock' (2)] [08-05-10 21:27:23.7116] Slim::Schema::forceCommit (1363) Warning: Trying to commit transactions before DB is initialized! 2008-05-10 21:27:23 SqueezeCenter died. Restarting. I wonder if I've got a runaway process here. I looked at my System Monitor and the memory usage is steadily climbing.
