Are you using baselayout-2 and openrc by any chance? If so I think I've possibly spotted it - could you try editing the file /etc/init.d/squeezecenter and changing the --name slimserver.pl \ line to --name squeezecenter-server \ (remember that trailing backslash). If that doesn't work could you

Excellent - thanks for letting me know. I'll get that fixed in the ebuild. Yes - I believe the --name parameter is there to support the baselayout-2/openrc changes. Our original SC7 ebuild didn't include it and the maintainers asked us to add it. I forgot to fix that for the new SC7 ebuild

My suggestion would be to get an Atom board, use your existing PCI RAID controller, and purchase a SATA/CF adaptor and a 1 or 2Gb CF card for the OS. Your existing ATX power supply and case will be fine. -- joncooper

Check permissions. Search this forum, but I think the command is sudo chmod -R 755 at a command prompt when you're at the top of the directory. You want to give everyone read and execute access, and owner write and delete access. I believe you can also use sudo chmod -R a+rwX to accomplish

Hi Mark, thanks for your response, but that is not what I mean... I have a second ext2 formatted disk of 750Gb. I created folders on it called mp3, data, playlist, pictures and so on. Within Samba I shared those folders, so I can fill them from my Windows XP workstation. But the disk is

I can remember having that problem at one time. I can't remember how I solved it. I think it went away after I mounted it to /home/music/ . /media/ is a special folder I believe. However the scanner will ignore everything but music files and it won't slow down the scan, so you can safely scan

Softsqueeze can run headless--I have a similar setup (receiver in living room; headless server in exercise room which runs Softsqueeze to give music in that room). Others have reported no problems, but I have a problem with my Controller losing contact with the server. Good luck! --Dean L.
