Steen, I have managed to setup my picoplayer without DHCP, that is, using a switch instead of a router OR connect my Pi directly to my PC via a LAN cable. You are welcomed to post it into your how-to if so needed.
Let's assume the following network environment: Raspberry Pi: I.P.: 192.168.11.100 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Gateway: 192.168.11.1 PC: I.P.: 192.168.11.200 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Gateway: 192.168.11.1 1. Set your PC's fixed I.P. address first. 2. Login to your picoplayer, type "sudo su" -> ENTER to get the administrative rights 3. Type ""vi /opt/bootlocal.sh" -> ENTER to edit the boot configuration using VI text editor 4. In VI, press "INSERT" key to enter edit mode 5. Press "DOWN ARROW" key to go to the beginning of the last line, the one start with "mnt/.........." 6. Press "ENTER" key twice to create two blank rows 7. In the first row, type "ifconfig eth0 192.168.11.100 netmask 255.255.255.0 up" 8. In the second row, type "route add default gw 192.168.11.1 eth0" 9. It should look like this, please see attachment. 15062 10. Press "ESC" key to exit edit mode in Vi, then type ":x" to save the changes 11. Type "filetool.sh -b" -> ENTER to permanently save the changes 12. Reboot If all goes without error, your LMS should detect your picoplayer after reboot. I am wondering if there is an improvement in audio quality if I connect the Pi with my PC directly via an LAN cable. No time to test it yet. But I could definitely tell you different router sounds differently in my previous tests. +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: 03.jpg | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=15062| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ fourwed's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=60662 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97803 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
