At the moment, I am able to boot by command-line. This is, like, SOOOOOOO undocumented. I had to dig around
~/Library/PreferencePanes/ then down to ~/Library/PreferencePanes/SlimServer.prefPane/Contents/server and then run $ ~/Library/PreferencePanes/SlimServer.prefPane/Contents/server/slimserver.pl --daemon (that's all on one line in case the forum editor turns it into two). Sooo undocumented. So now the server runs. The preference pane that you normally use to start slimserver (you know, the icon in System Preferences) shows the server as running and gives me the option to stop it. I still don't know what is broken, but it's as simple as "clicking on this button does not produce the desired activation". Just for a lark, I clicked on "Stop Server" and sure enough, it stopped it. Then I clicked on "Start Server" again (hoping it'd been a bootstrap hiccup) but no, it still doesn't work. I don't know if booting up this way neglects some other startup script that should be running. These are the things that keep me from giving a squeezebox to my friends and relatives. My father would disinherit me if I told him to play his music by just opening up the terminal and typing $ ~/Library/PreferencePanes/SlimServer.prefPane/Contents/server/slimserver.pl --daemon Cheers, Ariel -- trebejo ------------------------------------------------------------------------ trebejo's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=730 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=22188 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
