This worked for me up until now. I now have a weird problem.
For several reasons I had to re-install my ubuntu system as a true dual-boot OS on my PC (previously it was a installed within the windows file system). This is 12.04, 64 bit. Installing the tarball did not go as smoothly as before. First it claimed it could not find libjpeg.so.62. synaptic was no help, since it seemed to be already installed, so I downloaded it again from http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/i386/libjpeg62/download and reinstalled it. That problem went away. I then struggled to find a way to add a startup shortcut to my desktop, or a menu, or anywhere.... ubuntu 12.04 has been cut back to remove a lot of things which I used first time round in 11.04 (and also under Debian). I eventually solved this - another story. I did the no pulseaudio fixes, and set the sound devices and got squeezeplay to start cleanly, except..... When ssqueezeplay starts it quotes a pin number at me, and asks me to enter it a jive.squeezenetwork.com. There is no way to proceed without doing this. Starting squeezeplay from a terminal so I can see what is wrong, it says the squeezeplay is regeistered to another account: Code: -------------------- 20120518 22:38:15.162 WARN net.comet - Comet.lua:888 Comet {mysqueezebox.com}: _response, /1X6612add31542f581b3c34c089c2e4eb9X0016176e1066X0X1337380694X02b33af2/slim/request id=3 failed: This player is already linked to another SqueezeNetwork account. -------------------- What's this all about? I have no idea what is happening. I used to be able to install this tarball and connect to my SB (now a Vortexbox) and to my SB account, but it now gives me no chance to do this. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ PasTim's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41642 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=93505 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
