You could save yourself a lot of trouble and install VortexBox. It will install Fedora 10, SqueezeCenter, and an automatic CD ripper. You will be up and running in about 1/2 hour. -- agillis rip, tag, get cover artÂ… All you do is insert the CD! http://vortexbox.org ---

I'm not really sure what's going on here. I admit that I haven't personally tested the latest SC with F10, but I'm not aware of any changes in either SC or SELinux that would break things. This is also the only report of this specific failure that I've seen. I'll have to install F10 and test, b

SELinux shouldn't cause any problems on F10. You're right about the firewall being an issue, but the firewall should just block access, not prevent SC from starting, so I still think there's something else going on here. -- Fletch ---

The firewall and/or SELinux could be what are impeding you. I'd try disabling SELinux and then check the firewall. I'm not sure if the SC rpm opens the appropriate firewall ports for you or not. I always manually open the appropriate ports when I setup a Fedora box for SqueezeCenter. I don't u

Thanks. As you say, I believe squeezecenter is running in the background. However: 1. Firefox says it cannot connect to http://localhost:9000. I understand localhost should be 127.0.0.1, so also tried http://127.0.0.1:9000, which also failed. 2. /sbin/service squeezecenter stop resulted in me

The RPM doesn't add anything to the GUI menus because it is installed as a system daemon and not as a user program. If everything went correctly, it should have been started as part of the RPM install and you should be able to check by going to http://localhost:9000. It should also be configured
