Install Squeezebox Server on Joggler

Followed instructions from here., putting the "stable beta" repo in to the Software Sources: deb http://debian.slimdevices.com.

In the end had to get the deb http://debian.slimdevices.com stable main package as it couldn't find anything to download.

Ran Synaptic Package Manager and after a fashion it showed Squeezeboxserver as a package. Installed, required many other things too (mysql and perl linkages in particular).

Then navigate to /192.168.1.69:9000/ and configured it! All going!

Now sudo apt-get install smbfs.
sudo mkdir /mnt/hub

Then edit /etc/fstab to have //192.168.1.253/Disk_a1 /mnt/hub smbfs guest 0 0.

Seems bthub as name doesn't work, and IP address of the disk is at 253, not the gateway address of 254.

Happily indexing the hub's drive!

Squeezebox Server not indexing

Found that in scanner.log (get from http://localhost:9000/settings/index.html), it was always stopping at a song from an album called Golden Gate Breaks. When I moved it out of the way (delete it in iTunes), which is being indexed (though I had turned off iTunes indexing and was only pointing it at the iTunes folder), it indexed much further.

Suggested on Forum that I could upload a file or two.

Update 21 Oct: I uninstalled it cos it's now running on the Joggler. Used these instructions.

Squeezeplay for Joggler on Ubuntu 9

Followed these instructions:

First time I tried it it was really, really, very slow. I disabled some plugins in Squeezebox Server and also rebooted the Joggler, and now it's running very, very well!

Installed icon in Sound & Video menu of UNR, using Menu tool (System Tools pane). Linked to app.png icon in /opt/squeezeplay/shared???/jive/jive, it's beautiful but takes up whole screen.

Really want it to not be quite fullscreen... Or to have a gesture to get to Chrome.
