http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/checkins If you're keen on offering feedback and reporting bugs, then you may also want to go the extra mile and install SVN so that you can check out revisions as they happen and not have to wait for the nightlies. There are other advantages to doing this, the main one being it makes updating to the latest rev much faster and requires less bandwidth. All you'll be downloading once you've done the initial checkout is the files that change since you last updated. It also gives you greater granularity in that you can pinpoint which revision might have caused a problem, rather than just being able to say that some nightly between last Wednesday and last night's caused a bug. If you're running Windows this entails installing ActiveState Perl and something like TortoiseSVN. Then you'll run the perl version of the software instead of the compiled EXE version. The perl version can also be set up to run as a Windows service, though it takes a little extra effort. I believe there are instructions in the Wiki on getting everything running under Windows. -- JJZolx Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=21602 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta
