I agree with the poster above. I'm running on Gentoo and also had to put in a considerable amount of effort (about 3 hours) to get 6.5 up and running (BTW, I'm been using Slimserver for a couple of years, so I'm used to doing a full blown upgrade).
It took a whole bunch of configuring to get MySql ready to accept connections from SS, however, the notations on the Wiki were extremely helpful. TIP: If you're upgrading on Linux and your /etc/init.d/slimserver start command isn't starting up slimserver, go into your local slimserver install directory and run the main slimserver script manually, via a ./slimserver.pl. By doing that, it'll tell you what it doesn't like and you can go ahead and fix it. Now that it's up and running, I'm very pleased with the improvements. Seems to be running much more efficiently on the server and web interface response is very nice. There are only two things wrong that I"ve noticed thus far: 1. A few albums are not being flagged with the MM for integration with MusicMagic (MusicIP) -- they are quite clearly shown as mixable on the MusicIP interface, though. 2. The mouse cursor disappears when positioned over the Softsqueeze interface -- makes it difficult to push the Softsqueeze buttons. *Bradley -- Bradley ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Bradley's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=46 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=27707 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
