I switched yesterday as well, and am pretty impressed with performance as well.. No more pauses in randommix - yay ! :-) Few minor gripes though: Be nice to have better instructions on how to install MySQL itself.. Took me a while to suss that I had to login as root, create a new user, create the database, grant root permissions to use the database, grant the new user permissions, etc.. This was all with 4.1.. Maybe it's better with 5 ? Slimserver 6.5 kept falling over on startup as it turns out it needed some CPAN stuff adding.. Oh, also I had to upgrade my version of perl for 6.5 - kept giving a popup about some kind of memory thing not being supported.. Latest activestate build did the trick.. -- - Dr Lovegrove http://www.rusticrhino.com/drlovegrove _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
