A joggler is O2's brand name for an openpeak openframe - a 7"
capacitative touch-screen driven by an atom processor running a variant
of lpia ubuntu with the 2.6.24 kernel.

Yes I have tried setting each joggler to have a different name, the
only way I can achieve this is by ensuring only one is turned on at any
one time (if both are switched on then changing the name on one will set
the name on the other) ... however all this hard faffing is undone when
you switch them both on and try to connect to the squeezebox server
(the other picks up the name of the one with the shared mac address)

I did some digging about in the code and initially thought I'd found
something in the fact that the list of devices for the linux player to
pull the mac address from is hard-coded & while this is fine for a
wired connection (eth0) the wireless connection is unusually named (ie
not wlanX) ... so I tried plugging both into the router with a cable &
experienced the same problems.

Looking at the code I don't see how this effect could be happening, it
really 'should not' be possible ... sadly however it is :(

Right now I'm running the birds like wires binary of the
squeezeplayer/jive code, however I think I'm going to need to have a go
at compiling my own so that I can be sure it's using the same code as
I'm seeing in idea.
