That's brilliant, thanks Paul. I don't really see the benefit of the udev approach over your approach. Your script is leaner, and doesn't require any 'installation', other than to call it from a User Command. If this was StackExchange, this should be the top answer to the question "How do I start/restart Squeezelite when I plug in my USB DAC?" I'm left with a couple of nagging doubts. 1) If I'm remembering and interpreting correctly, I think Bogg also reported that his system would not start squeezelite via the start-stop-daemon. That was the reason I implemented a copy of the 'start' approach in my script. It would be interesting if Bogg could uninstall the old udev script and give this one a try, to see if that's still the case. 2) Your script uses the 'restart' option of the init.d script, which simply does a behind-the-scenes 'stop' then 'start'. It would probably be safer for your script to explicitly do a new-style 'stop' followed by an init.d 'start', although I recognise that it should never get to the state that causes this problem, i.e. where the DAC has disappeared just before the script does a restart, without the script explicitly doing a new-style stop first. I hope that explanation is not too muddled. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ chill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10839 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113661 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
