Ronnie,

In the absence of a RPI2 SOA installer image, you would need to follow
these installation instructions first:

http://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv7/broadcom/raspberry-pi-2

Then these: 

https://github.com/SqueezeOnArch/soa-aur

The bit you got lost on was step 3.  You do that with these commands as
root:


Code:


  useradd -r -m -d /aur -G wheel -c 'Soa Aur' -s /bin/false aur
  sed -i -e /%wheel ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL/c %wheel ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL 
/etc/sudoers
  



This is a common step done in all Triode's installer images. (The first
line adds a special user to the system as a member of the wheel group
and the second line allows all members of the wheel group to use the
sudo command without a password.)

Actually, I think creating a SOA  installer image for the RPI2 should be
straightforward for anyone with some Linux know-how.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] piCoPlayer = Squeezelite on Microcore linux. .An embedded OS in RAM with Squeezelite

2015-05-15 Thread RSJ

I need a little help on getting this working over wi fi. I'm using the
latest version with an Edimax EW-7811Un adapter. I've set up the
wireless settings and as far as I can tell it's connected because it
saved the settings, successfully connected and the little blue light is
blinking. However when I unplug the network cable it drops of the
network, I can no longer see it on SqueezeCommander and the music stops
shortly thereafter. If anyone could point me in the right direction to
trouble shoot this it would be much appreciated. By the way thanks to
every one involved in all the work on this, I'm loving it. I'm hoping
that something can be figured out with on-demand music services like
Rhapsody because my whole house audio system hasn't been the same since
that last change that killed my SB receivers.

Nevermind, I figured it out. I unplugged the RPi, disconnected the data
cable, powered it back up and it's working. However the audio is playing
slow and sounds weird. So off to trouble shoot. If anyone has
experienced this let me know what you did to fix it.

Hi aHi

We have dropped support for the cli setup in the most recent versions of
piCorePlayer. So now all settings are changed via your web-browser. 

You simply open a browser on another computer in your network and direct
it to the IP-address of your raspberry. Then the configuration page
should be available.

Hi folks.


Is anybody running SoA on a RPI 2 ??  

I'm wondering how the Pi2 performs in comparison to the PI B+ regarding
server duties.


Cheers

I would have thought the qualitative answer to your question was
obvious.  I seem to remember JackofAll did some real world test on this
when the RPi 2 first hit the streets. Search for his post.

 Depends what you mean by supported. If the question is can SOA work on a

Hmmh. 

What you say is that the basic SoA OS setup (fixing the SD card and
installing a basic Arch OS incl. user,etc) is not working.
And all the pre-build binaries and SoA apps that usually get downloaded
later on during installation are working.

Is it correct to assume, that only the initial SoA install image would
have to be adapted slightly to download the new RPI2 base image??
...Shouldn't be a such big issue then.

Ah, okay, I was just about to post the same thing.

Two other things I've noticed:

1.) During the upgrade from 1.19i to 1.19k, my timezone setting got
screwed up. (It seems some % characters were added, so the timezone
has to be set up again.)
2.) The ALSA volume is not remembered during upgrades.

hi poing,

Thanks for reporting.

Yes, this is an unfortunate circumstance of us cleaning up the timezone
code. The timezone was stored as an encoded string in config.cfg. The
piCore method of storing the timezone required the decoded string be
stored.

poing wrote: 
 2.) The ALSA volume is not remembered during upgrades. EDIT: Apparently,
 it's also not remembers during reboots. That's a pretty big PITA
 considering the unreasonable default volume of 50 (i.e., -14 dB)

What audio out are you using?

I don't think the ALSA volume was ever remembered during upgrades? I
haven't seen any code that would have done this, but it would be nice if
it happened!!

ALSA configuration and settings are a multi layered beast.

You will need to go through the whole process of setting the volume
again. alsamixer, save, and backup. Then it should work as before.

Another option is the -U option for squeezelite.

Greg

 It freezes on selection of 1920x1080 skins. 1280x720/1024 works fine.

hi johtem,

As this is a new feature I am sure we'll have few issues and we'll have
to work out where the problem lies.

What Raspberry Pi are you using?

What is your audio out?
