Till today i was very happy with my slimbox and with the slimserver ...
Well i'm still fine .. but well edgy + slim6.5 sucks ... Hi i tried to upgrade from 6.2 to 6.5 and i failed (simulateneously i moved to ubunty edgy from dapper .. probably it was too much). Everything seemed fine, but the web interface produce no output. First the skin was debian and i was ok, since that skin was ugly i decided to switch to default and then all output was gone. I tried to remove the package, and also to remove everything in /var/share/slimserver and /etc/slimserver and to install again .. No way. Worst i had to change the box firmware many times ... GOD typing my wep key is BORING ... is that so complicated to store it in a part of the box not affected by firmware change. Also, One script create a template directory, and there i don't know whoat the writter had in mind when calling a directory /template/home/user/ ... I really tripled checked that i was not removing my home directory. Well according to me 6.5 is just a waste, 6.2 is ok... I don't know why in software engineering the trent is always let's break what works and had some fancy things instead on working on the important bugs and problems. Anyway i had to rebuild 6.2 using the SlimServer_v6.2.2/Bin/build-perl-modules.pl script. Last i also had problems on ubuntu dapper reading ogg or with server not seing so files (even after rescan) ... ok i have like 12000 tracks but for a modern computer this is nothing. Well if you have ubuntu edgy and slimserver 6.5 (either test, beta or stable) working nicely let know. -- bretonfou ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bretonfou's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=30246 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
