Now I've got a real squeezebox, this is becoming far more of a problem.
The error I'm getting is being generated by slimserver.pl at line 974
(rev 3144).  Could someone give pointers about exactly what would be
causing the error and what it's trying to say - from my output, it
looks like some bits are missing.  I've checked and double checked
permissions, and it's starting as root anyway, so I'm stuck!
