Are your scans completing or even starting? If not, then what I've found I've sometimes had to do recently is to redirect the Music Folder line on the Basic Settings page to say /home or someplace where there are no flac files, start a "Clear library and rescan everything" scan. Let this run... When it completes, correct the address in the Music Folder dialogue and run a full scan. There may be another problem, related to the way Ubuntu 9.10 and Squeezeboxserver interact...9.10 appears to be a bit more contrary than 9.04 about permissions. This may be totally irrelevant but possibly worth a try: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showpost.php?p=500312&postcount=3 "I shrunk the NTFS partition on the 500 gig USB drive to 220 gigs (leaving a copy of my music on this), and formatted the rest to ext3. I next attached the USB drive to my Ubuntu 9.04 laptop. The 2 partitions, NTFS and ext3 mounted nicely. I went about copying the whole shebang of directories and files to ext3 by drag and drop etc. Ubuntu told me to take a hike - I did not have permission to piddle about on its living-room floor. Back to Google. Open a terminal on the desktop in 9.04. gksudo nautilus Two lovely File Browser windows opened up, one from the NTFS partition and the other from the ext3 partition. I made a Music directory on the ext3 partition by sudo mkdir /media/Lacie_ext3/ext3_Music A quick drag and drop from the NTFS window into this directory and 4 1/2 hours later 220 gigs of music had found a summer home in ext3." -- kesey Squeezebox Classic:2; Duet: 1; Boom:1; Touch:on order Server: SheevaPlug Debian Squeeze 4GB SDCard, Squeezeboxserver 7.4.2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ kesey's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10786 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=73197 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
