Just one point before you go for it! The reason I went for ubuntu server in the end is because I wanted the option of playing audio on the server. Audio is broken in the latest cc release and they won't fix it as it isn't a priority for them. The other reason is ease of package install, from the excellent CC guide website, it looks like you have to go through a lot of command line stuff to get everything going any way, especially mplayer, where you have to mess with plugins etc. On ubuntu I just typed
Sudo apt-get install mplayer And it was all working! Also it's similarly easy to install the program webmin which gives you a web interface like cc does. Apart from those points i'm sure CC is otherwise excellent for use with squeezecenter.

Pale Blue Ego, I think I will give CC a try as you suggest. I only thought about Ubuntu server as I am using the desktop version at the moment so I figured it would be easier. If I screw things up with CC I can always give Ubuntu server a go. Thanks for the advice and I will let you know how I get on - probably via stupid questions cos I havent installed it incorrectly. ta -- fast eddie ------------------------------------------------------------------------ fast eddie's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7826 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=42989 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
