To run 6.5 you'll need MySQL 4.1.x or later, but maybe you already have that.
build-perl-modules.pl does what the name implies: it's a perl script that builds some of the necessary perl modules for your architecture (PowerPC processor). That's because SD doesn't compile binaries for oddball -- sorry, 'unsupported' -- platforms like Kuro HGs <g>. But the perl script does it. I'm surprised that you don't need to run it, but if it works for you, that's great. If you need to run it, slimserver usually gives you an error message telling you so when you try to start it. While your start/kill routine may work fine, let me know if you'd like a script that enables basic start/stop/restart operation. I have one based on those in the Gentoo instructions that you might find useful. -- aubuti ------------------------------------------------------------------------ aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=27546 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
