The blunt instrument approach to stop slimserver daemon is to use "kill"
but first you need thr process id PID.
Use the command to get the PID
Code:
--------------------
ps -ef | grep slimserver
--------------------
This will list the slimserver process - note the process id PID.
Then use the "kill -9" command for example if the slimserver process
is 1079
Code:
--------------------
kill -9 1079
--------------------
To run slimserver from a shell command prompt - it is the same as the
startup command but no "daemon". So "cd" to the directory that
contains the file slimserver.pl and then issues the command
Code:
--------------------
./slimserver.pl --prefsfile /mnt/slim-data/slimserver.pref --cachedir
/mnt/slim-data --d_source
--------------------
Regarding pre7 mplayer. Wait until you get AlienBBC working before
changing mplayer. Then the quickest way to rebuild would be to apply
the pre7 patch as this only involve one file to be compiled and a
relink. "make" the directory containing the patch files (or the next
level up if there is no makefile in it). Then make from "main"
directory as only a relink will now be needed not a complete
re-compile.
Longer term using the latest CVS will be best as it msan bug fixes and
it has an inbuilt RealAudio codec as well as the option which speeds up
starting non-live RealAudio streams.
