Thanks, I'll give that a try next

Thanks for this - I'll see if I can create a v9.0.0 i386 squeezeplay.

Re: Current Squeezeplay for Joggler

I found the code that acts as the "Off" screensaver. In my install its located at /opt/squeezeplay/share/jive/applets/BlankScreen/BlankScreenApplet.lua There are several calls to a _setBrightness() function, passing "off" or "on". That function simply calls appletManage...

Re: Current Squeezeplay for Joggler

A little progress: I discovered that (as I'm just running squeezeplay and nothing else on the Joggler) I can globally disable the cursor. You just need to pass "-nocursor" to startx. In our case that's just a simple matter of adding "-nocursor" to the end of the ExecStart stateme...

Current Squeezeplay for Joggler

I see with interest that Ralph Irving has been steadily supporting and enhancing Squeezeplay over on GitHub ( https://github.com/ralph-irving/squeezeos-squeezeplay ) and is now up to version 9.0.1, which is significantly up-level from the version Roobarbs of-install script installs for the latest De...

Re: SqueezePlay for Joggler (Native, Ubuntu & SQPOS)

But after step welcome the want connect to Libraries. Its not possible this feature to disable? I used to run SQPOS on the internal flash of my Jogglers, but they were becoming increasingly unreliable as that image was over a decade old, and many things have changed in that time (including the clos...

Re: Problem with Squeezeplay on Debian Bullseye

Goodness, has 9.0.1 shipped already? Time for me to upgrade again I guess. :) So, lots of good news to report: Firstly, that switching to "Persistent mode" seems to have solved my problems streaming podcasts. And as a side comment, for the life of me, I don't see why that wasn't the defaul...

@Man_in_a_van

Thanks, that's an option I've never seen before! Will give the persistence option a try, and report back. Incidentally, I don't see exactly the same panel as you - are you on a beta version of LMS?

Re: Problem with Squeezeplay on Debian Bullseye

Hey there, well, I'm glad that install script still did something! I haven't used SqueezePlay in some time, so my knowledge is very rusty these days. Me too - the passing of time etc ... Will ask over on the slimdevices forums - unfortunately Ralf doesn't seen to distribute i386 Linux tarballs (any...

Problem with Squeezeplay on Debian Bullseye

Hoping this is the right place to raise a couple of issues. I installed Debian Bullseye onto the internal flash of my Joggler from @roobarb! repository ( https://openbeak.net/openframe/images/debian/bullseye/latest/ ), and then installed Squeezeplay using the of-install squeezeplay script, which ins...

Re: Updating SqueezeplayOS

@sixedup Well the first thing to say, is that you obviously know a lot more than I do :) No, I just know different stuff :) I don't know much about linux of any sort, if I find something that works' I stick with it. Not a bad approach at all! This is how I install Squeezelite to use the joggler int...

Re: Updating SqueezeplayOS

Some further thoughts If you want to keep it on the internal ram then I think Ralphy's Squeezeplay is the way to go. Maybe. Its what I'm used to with Roobarbs SQPOS ... but I thought I'd try jivelite/squeezelite too before just going with what I knew :) I use an external usb stick or sd card in a r...

Re: Updating SqueezeplayOS

From some old notes Originally posted by chill View Post - The 'Quit' option on the Jivelite home screen dumps you out of Jivelite, and in my case leaves a terminal screen with some messy video artefacts along the bottom third of the screen. I think that option should be changed to restart JiveLite...

Updating SqueezeplayOS

I've been running SqueezeplayOS ( https://www.jogglerwiki.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=14 ) on the internal flash of several Jogglers for many years now. It works really well, but does hang from time to time, and is now getting very (VERY) old. I would like to update everything to newer softwar...

Re: Finally cracked it!

Dumb user question - is this heading towards being an updated replacement for the old SqueezeOS 3.03 image that could be installed on the internal flash?

Re: Recommended setup for "new" Joggler

OK, from a quick look on my "good" joggler, the sum0 file should be a text file with the Linux kernel boot parameters in it. The startup.nsh file looks like it tells the EFI BIOS where to look for the bootable system. The "good" one has two lines in it: fs1:boot fs0:boot So it lo...

Re: Recommended setup for "new" Joggler

Yes, it looks like there is some sort of life. But more to do to properly fix it. 1. Could be. I'll try putting Roobarbs reflasher onto the currently working USB stick that correctly runs xubuntu and see if that helps. 2. I'm using 'dd' - I don't have any Windows computers, just Linux and Mac. 3. I ...

Re: Recommended setup for "new" Joggler

Ok, this is really strange. USB keyboard and Xubuntu USB Key plugged into a USB 2.0 Hub, with that plugged into Joggler. Power on -> ESC repeatedly until keyboard recognised and breaks into boot (can toggle numlock etc). fs0:boot -> about 5 seconds wait with nothing happening -> fs1:boot Grub screen...
