Ubuntu Bionic for OpenFrame
Re: Ubuntu Bionic for OpenFrame
Yes here installed HASSIO in home #2 and still learning with it. I am only using remote access to it at this time and just doing MQTT there.
This home installed a wireless Ring alarm system and a Ring to MQTT plugin.
I also went to using GoSund in wall dimmer switches updated to Tasmota a scripting firmware and Gosund Template / script.
On a side note:
I found a small mini PCiE USB and SSD controller with bare wires to fit inside of the Openpeak 2 a few weeks back. I ordered it from Russian and have no clue how long it will take to get to me.

I'll have to revisit my Hubitat automation hub. Technology is moving way fast these days and maybe though it is my age.

Re: Ubuntu Bionic for OpenFrame
Similar experience here.
l had a lot of inconsistency over when it'd work. Sometimes it'd run after a single install. Other times it'd take two goes. But a reboot tends to kill it.
During the installation process I've been through bootloops and various errors, both of which meant I've had to reflash.
Results are too unpredictable to give me the confidence to be able to replicate even one single successful install on another unit.
Back to PnPIII it is with LMS 7.9.0.

This was done, but the problem is that it doesn't even start up at all.
"sudo service logitechmediaserver status" shows it's running but the Squeezeboxes can't see it and there's no web server.

If it is running, at least you are part way there. Did you read on on from the link ?
You need to have have run
Code: Select all
sudo apt install libnet-ssleay-perl libio-socket-ssl-perl libcrypt-openssl-rsa-perl lame -y
If you did and it doesn't work, then just pull the power plug and then power back on after a long wait (24hrs is enough, Ionce left an install as not working and when I powered the Joggler up after a few weeks, it was ticketyboo

And if that doesn't work, I give up

Re: Ubuntu Bionic for OpenFrame
Tried that and I reckon I must have run out of space because it fails.
Tried 7.9.2.

Re: Ubuntu Bionic for OpenFrame
OK, so I guess you are using the internal ram and not an external usb stick.
SSH in to the joggler and run
Code: Select all
sudo apt remove logitechmediaserver
Then install the lms download that is in your home directory (mine is v 7.9.3 http://downloads.slimdevices.com/Logite ... er_v7.9.3/)
either (use your own version, obvs

Code: Select all
sudo dpkg -i logitechmediaserver_7.9.3_i386.deb
Code: Select all
sudo apt install ./logitechmediaserver_7.9.3_i386.deb
Code: Select all
sudo apt -f install
Code: Select all
sudo reboot
It might be better to try a usb stick to get it working. They are faster and it's easy to make a back-up image.
Any 8GB or 16Gb is enough and then you can look for a short one, I use one of these

Did you manage to get 7.9.3 on your Joggler using internal only?Man in a van wrote: ↑Sun Nov 08, 2020 1:07 pm

I seem to remember you mentioned you had a slimmed-down version of LMS?
Trying to remove LMS gave:
"The following packages will be REMOVED:
logitechmediaserver
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
After this operation, 158 MB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n] y
dpkg: unrecoverable fatal error, aborting:
files list file for package 'python3-six' is missing final newline
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)"
I think I'll need to start from scratch.

Yes, but, as I have oft said, it's very tight on space, much better to use an external usb 2 stick

NO, I mentenioned that PNP3 Updated version v3.60 has a modified version of LMS (it's mentioned somewhere in the docs)

Re: Ubuntu Bionic for OpenFrame
@vinnielo
I'm going to sen you a link to download my LMS / Squeezeplay install for the Joggler.
It's for a USB stick (or if you have a usb external sd card reader, you can pop it that).
Unzip the file before burning (I used the rpi imager tool)
You will have to go
Settings > Audio Settings > Audio Interface > and change to Internal (mixer)
then reboot if you want to use the internal joggler speaker.
If you have a problem accessing the internal LMS called Openframe, try connecting from a web browser to check that it is running.
The more I play with this, it strikes me that the Joggler is really only good for Squeezeplay and LMS is best on a raspberry pi

Re: Ubuntu Bionic for OpenFrame
Does the build of Squeezeplay offered by of-install have sound effects disabled?
I've tried enabling the sound effects for navigation (Settings -> Audio Settings) to no avail.
