All I've found is to go to task manager and kill the mysql.exe process
manually. It donesn't appear to do any harm.

It annoys me that they have gone from the horrible Real company and format

The Inquirer posted an article today regarding the BBC and MS
striking new techology deals.
What a great thread. Perfectly illustrates the level of technical literacy
of an increasing number of Squeezebox users. Slim will have to take on board
that there is a demand from this potentially huge market that requires a
simple, ergonomic, sleek, fast, robust and intuitive interface.

Have SD ever though of running Windows on their forums server?

I'm CC'ed to a bug about the remote jumping through menu items.
There are some settings in this bug report that I want. But I can't find the
bug by searching bugs.slimdevices. A search on say,remote jump gives
me zillions of bugs and I still can't find the one I want in the returns.

It also gives you a display message when you add next, or add

Funny, but I was noticing this morning (whilst building a rather large

Any reason that would not work with the SB2/3? Note, it is only a

It's a bug, due to be fixed in 6.5. Search the bugs.slimdevices.com and

nor hurt your existing installation).
I got quite excited by this. However, Slimserver does not seem able to read

My server is a P4 with 640MB, with a 40GB OS drive and two

takes 5-10 seconds. I'm not looking forward to when
The difference may be OS. I run slimserver on FreeBSD, and I

thing else ;-).

Is there a way to force Slim Server to see over a networked drive?
I'll take a calculated bet you're on Windows.
If so, make sure that you are running the Slimserver on an account that has
