O2 Joggler Forum

Thank you, roobarb! Clear and helpful.
I appreciatetd the 5.10 bionic much.

I may have misunderstood the subject of this thread...however, I was referring to this image available on birdslikewires.net:
bio-ext2-1028-43-bionic-5.4.177op.img.gz
It is compiled with kernel 5.4 and is meant to be installed on an external USB drive.

Hi Roobarb,
does the latest openframe ubuntu image downloadable from your site (dated 06-Feb-2022) include the fix to the annoying crackling sound coming from the speaker?
Thank you so much for what you do for our community.

Thank you!

Hi SteveC,
I have tried with no success. Sorry.
An USB keyboard will work, though.

I need a squeezebox app to launch a shell script.
Are there guidelines for developers of apps?

Please note that it is difficult to work with the spotify client on the joggler because the screen is not meant for small touch screens. However the spotify client on the joggler can be remotely controlled with a spotify client running on a smartphone, tablet or pc. All you have to do is to click on...

Hi Ronnie, actually installing the spotify client requires a little knowledge of linux/unix and of its shell. Usually, when you establish the SSH session (username=joggler, password=joggler), you are at the home of the user joggler, and it is there that you must operate. Just to be sure, before star...

Hi Ronnie, there is a typo in my post, sorry (now corrected, thank you for having noted). Please read xdg-utils instead of xgd-utils. Please be sure to have done the following operations before installing packages: 1) In the file /etc/apt/sources.list replace http://ubuntu.datahop.net/ubuntu/ with h...

My "dirty" solution to toggle between SqueezePlay and Spotify: 0) Open a SSH session 1) In the home create and edit a new file named "toggle" vi toggle 2) Put the following lines in this new file, then save an exit: if [ -f ./sq ]; then mv ./sq ./sp killall -v squeezeplay.sh elif...

Please find below the instructions to install a Spotify client on roobarb's SqueezePlay OS. 0) First open a remote SSH session 1) Install the (missing) required packages: sudo apt-get install xdg-utils curl libxss1 2) In your browser open the page at the following URL: http://repository-origin.spoti...

Spotify client on SqPOS Does a real keyboard work? Have you tried running the OS from a USB hub with a keyboard attached? Yes, this works, thanks a lot ! I entered username and password using a keyboard attached to a USB hub (which also hosts the SqPOS pendrive). After the first login, there's no ne...

Hi gegs, thank you for answering. Does a real keyboard work? Have you tried running the OS from a USB hub with a keyboard attached? I'll give this a try. The Spotify client for Android works well on ICS for the Joggler but there is only analogue sound through the 3.5mm socket. I want to start either...

Spotify Client on SqueezePlay OS I currently use Spotify on my Joggler thanks to the Triode plugin on a local Logitech Media Server. However, the original Spotify client provides a much better user experience (nowadays a smartphone spotify app can remotely control another spotify client, and that's ...

Hi atb,
thank you for answering.
I would like to avoid another box and another power supply.
For the moment I simply detach the external drive before booting, and reattach it after booting.
Any other solution is welcome.

I want my joggler to boot SqueezePlay OS from a USB pen drive, but at the same time I want to connect an external USB disk to the external USB port. Therefore I have removed the internal WiFi board and have inserted the USB pen drive (SqpOS) in the USB port formerly used for WiFi. If the external US...

I have installed SqOS v3 on the internal flash memory of my joggler. Then I installed the nightly build of Logitech Media Server v7.9. The installation succeeded, but there is no free flash memory fo indexes. Is there some package that I can remove to free some memory space? (I don't use wireless an...

Hi Gegs,
I simply didn't realize that spotify can be controlled by the logitech squeezebox controller app or the orangesqueeze app.
Thanks a lot!
