I did see that I think I’m using the wrong build chain, though, so I’m going to try a different chain and see what that does.

I think the build chain is ok (FF did work in foreground); prolly more an authorization/root account/ … issue when running in background, no? ❓

Actually, I think it’s probably a path issue. Like it’s picking up a wrong library or something.

Anyway, I did get it installed, got unslung installed, and when I left off last night, I got most of the dev libraries loaded. I want to load a full dev chain on it and compile natively so I can run gdb, though.

Getting there… I’ve not forgotten, just moving slowly. 🙂

wl500g is still broken in 1571?

afaik. Got UPnP disco done today, so will look at it tonight, now that I have a test machine for it.

Did anyone succeed in running firefly on the asus 500g? I’d like to give it a try and test a working setup, but I am not sure if the current versions worth testing.

TIA

I really have no idea why it won’t work. That is, why it will work in the foreground but not background. Inexplicable.

I’m going to try building with the oleg toolchain rather than the wl500g toolchain, though, and see where that gets me.

Just wanted to point out that Firefly does seem to work perfectly well as long as you include the -f option in /opt/etc/init.d/S60mt-daapd, i.e.

#!/bin/sh



# make sure our shared libraries are in the path.

# if we get /etc/ld.so.conf working, this export

# can be removed

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/opt/lib



if [ -n "`pidof mt-daapd`" ] ; then

killall mt-daapd 2>/dev/null

fi



sleep 2

/opt/sbin/mt-daapd -c /opt/etc/mt-daapd/mt-daapd.conf -f 

I’ve been running it for several weeks now on my 500g deluxe with no problems. So I’d say it’s well worth a try.

Ron, I am using Oleg’s firmware, in case this makes a difference.

Ok, that succeeded.

In another thread I read that support for upnp is planned, will it be enabled for the asus package? With the current nightly (1586), the Noxon Audio will not discover the firefly server.

TIA

Yeah, once I get it at least sort-of working, I’ll turn it on for all platforms. I’m just finishing re-doing the cross-platform socket stuff, hopefully I’ll merge it back into head in the next couple days, and then I can get it working on Windows and unix as well.

old packages are at ipkg.fireflymediaserver.org, or at nightlies.mt-daapd.org.
