6.0 will be required. The squeezebox 2 is totally new hardware, so it needs
special new code to talk to it.

3 hours seems long.  How many songs?

try running /usr/local/slimserver.pl --d_http --d_info --d_source

you'll see the web activity, song infomation handling and playback processing in
the terminal.  When/if the crash occurs, you can report the tail end of that
log.
