I wonder if it would be possible to patch the firmware, I think the uuid
is read from the hardware and set in
/usr/share/applets/SqueezeboxJive/SqueezeboxJiveApplet.lua in the init
method.
I don't have my broken Controller charged at the moment so I can 't try
exactly how to do it, but possibly it might be possible to generate a
uuid based on the mac address or something similar if it can't be read
from the hardware.
