Are you installing Ubuntu and SqueezeCenter on machine A, and trying to access the web-interface from machine B with a browser running on machine B? For this option you don't need any X stuff or Firefox on machine A. You just need to make sure that SqueezeCenter is running correctly. Btw. this would be the setup which is most commonly referred to as a "headless server". Direct interaction with the server is done by logging into A using command line. ssh is probably the protocol you should use for logging in. Or are you trying to run the browser remotely on machine A, and display it on machine B? This requires Firefox to be installed on machine A. If you are using Ubuntu/Debian you should not need to install any extra packages. Firefox does depends on a few x related packages which will be installed automatically when you install Firefox. However you do need an xserver on machine B!!! Or are you doing everything from machine A, i.e. running SC, and trying to run a browser and access SC? In this case you need the a whole desktop environment, e.g. xserver etc. installed on A. The easiest way of doing this is to install the metapackage xubuntu-desktop or ubuntu-desktop. The former will give you a more lightweight desktop system, while the latter is the full Ubuntu standard desktop. -- bhaagensen ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bhaagensen's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7418 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=51224 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
