Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] 6.5 trashed my setup - where did I go wrong?

2007-05-15 Thread ioncube
Thanks for the replies again, and I suspect that you're right about the scope of changes for 6.5. Backing out a new version had always worked previously when required so I never thought twice about that. I actually never specified any command line args when starting, and the default was to keep t
