SqueezePlay OS Recipes

guidows · Post by **guidows** » Wed Jun 20, 2012 3:50 am

First of all: Sorry for my bad English, I'm from Chile so my mother language is Spanish, and even that I do not speak well

and also, this is possible only because roobarb has made this fantastic option of having a minimal ubuntu lucid with squeezplay, from Chile: Thanks Dude!, and also to everyone of this forum members: I enjoyed lots playing with the Joggler.

Ok, first of the recipes:
How to install in the internal flash drive:

From Linux:
Boot from a Linux distro in a pendrive with enough space to download from http://birdslikewires.co.uk/articles/squeezeplay-os and uncompress the SqueezePlayOS.
as root in a linux console (that can be done using ssh)

dd if=./squeezeplayos.img of=/dev/mmcblk0
then reboot and is done.

From Windows:
If you don know so much about how to use Linux, this can be a easier option.
Boot from Mevi's XP SP3 distro.
http://www.jogglerwiki.com/forum/viewto ... ?f=2&t=305
You have to have enough space (at least 1.3 gigs). Is possible to resize the distro using PartitionMagic
Download and uncompress squeezeplayos
Download https://launchpad.net/win32-image-writer/0.1/0.1
Using win32imagewriter, write the .img file in the internal disk of the joggler. That is all.

SqueezePlayOS first Steps
1)deprecated.

2) Ssh to the joggler user: joggler passwd:joggler

3) Change root passwd
sudo passwd

4) #login as root
su -

5) update apt-get
apt-get update

6) if you live outside uk, reconfigure the timezone
dpkg-reconfigure tzdata

7) Install some useful packages (if you don't know what screen is, I recommend you to learn about it)
localpurge: to remove unused locales (other languages)
ntfs-3g: to mount in readwrite mode ntfs disks
cifs-utils: to mount windows shares
screen: linux console multitasking
locate: to find things. To fill the database, is necesary to do a updatedb
links: console web browser

apt-get install cifs-utils screen

(with all)
apt-get install localepurge ntfs-3g cifs-utils screen locate links transmission-daemon lighttpd php5-cgi mysql-server mysql-client php5-mysql php5-gd unzip sdparm samba

PROBABLY NOT STILL NECESSARY AS IN THE LAST SQUEEZEPLAY OS ARE THOSE THINGS DELETED

Making space in the Joggler

This part can be dangerous, a try and error process and a little bit dirty, but I have not have problems in a couple of weeks using it.

#remove unused packages, mainly developing packages. Remember, most of the software you can download using binary packages within of apt sources and if some program need a uninstalled program, it will be installed again.

apt-get remove libpango1.0-0 libpangoxft-1.0-0 libxft2 nano rsync x11-utils xbitmaps xterm zlibc

apt-get autoremove

#Remove other thing that are almost never used.
rm -rf /usr/src /usr/share/doc /usr/share/man /usr/share/doc-base

rm /usr/share/sounds/alsa/* /var/cache/apt/*.bin

rm -rf /var/lib/dkms/*

note that /apt/*bin is regenerated every time you do an apt-get update. If you don't plan to install any other thing, you can delete safely, and created it again when is necessary. Don't forget to do an apt-get clean to clean the apt cache folder

With this thing you can recover more than 360M.

OTHER

rm /usr/share/squeezeboxserver/Firmware/*
rm -rf /usr/share/squeezeboxserver/CPAN/arch/5.12/i386-linux-thread-multi-64int
rm -rf /usr/share/squeezeboxserver/CPAN/arch/5.14/i386-linux-thread-multi-64int

NO MORE NECESSARY as you can install it directly from Squeezeplay in the advance options.

How to Install Squeezeboxserver

Is possible to install SqueezeboxServer or the latest Logitec Media Server. The main difference among both is that LMS serves the files in the Squeeze protocol and in the DLNA protocol, but its size is almost double. I prefer to install only the SqueezeboxServer to serve the SqueezePlay in the joggler and the other squeeze devices that I have in my home, and to install minidlna to server files to dlna compatible devices.

Is possible that you don't have enough space to download and install the file. Try to download the .deb installer in other filesystem like a network share or even a pendrive in the usb port of the joggler.

To install, simply download the .deb package and install it with dpkg -i. The package is a multi architecture package so you can save lots of space dropping other architectures but i386

wget http://downloads.slimdevices.com/Squeez ... 93_all.deb
dpkg -i squeezeboxserver_7.6.2~33593_all.deb

#deleting other architectures
cd /usr/share/squeezeboxserver/CPAN/arch/
ls
cd 5.10
rm -rf arm-linux-gnueabi-thread-multi/ powerpc-linux-thread-multi/ x86_64-linux-thread-multi/
cd ../5.12
rm -rf arm-linux-gnueabi-thread-multi/ powerpc-linux-thread-multi/ x86_64-linux-thread-multi/
cd ../5.8
rm -rf arm-linux-gnueabi-thread-multi/ powerpc-linux-thread-multi/ x86_64-linux-thread-multi/

Check if squeezeplay and server are working (http://joggler_ip:9000), if all is ok, also is possible to delete the folder /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/cache/updates/*

NOT NECESSARY IF YOU INSTALL SQUEEZEBOXSERVER (IT DOES HAS A DLNA SERVER ITSELF)

How to install miniDLNA

apt-get install gnupg gnupg-curl

add the folowing lines to /etc/apt/sources.list

Code: Select all

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/stedy6/stedy-minidna/ubuntu lucid main 
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/stedy6/stedy-minidna/ubuntu lucid main

Install minidlna (19.5MB)

apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 661F5D0B
apt-get update
apt-get install minidlna
apt-get remove gnupg gnupg-curl

I don't know why, but is necessary to do a little dirty trick to start minidlna in each reboot. Edit the /etc/init.d/minidlna file and search for do_start() and add a "sleep 5"

Code: Select all

#
# Function that starts the daemon/service
#
do_start()
{
# Return
#   0 if daemon has been started
#   1 if daemon was already running
#   2 if daemon could not be started
touch $LOGFILE && chown $USER:$GROUP $LOGFILE || return 2
if [ ! -d $PIDDIR ]; then
mkdir $PIDDIR || return 2
fi
chown $USER:$GROUP $PIDDIR || return 2

#  ******  ADD HERE THIS LINE***********
  sleep 5     
start-stop-daemon –start –quiet –pidfile $PIDFILE \
–chuid $USER:$GROUP –exec $DAEMON –test > /dev/null \
|| return 1
start-stop-daemon –start –quiet –pidfile $PIDFILE \
–chuid $USER:$GROUP –exec $DAEMON — \
$DAEMON_ARGS \
|| return 2
}

Finally you can define where to search for the media editing the /etc/minidlna.conf file and then doing a
minidlna -R
to force a rescan

Evidently is hard to have many audio files in the joggler disk, so I recommend to have your music in a network share or external disk. In my case I have my files in a Apple TimeCapsule disk. If someone have one, this are the magical lines.

To mount the timecapsule share in SMB/CIFS protocol (windows) in the folder /media/capsule (previously created)

mount.cifs //SERVER_IP/FolderName /media/capsule -o pass=time_capsule_passwd

To add it "forever", edit the /etc/fstab file and add this line (using SERVER IP 10.0.1.1 and folder data)

//10.0.1.1/capsule /media/capsule cifs password=MY_PASSWD,sec=ntlm,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,rw,mand 0 0

the iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 options are very important if you want to use the files with SqueezeServer.

How to install a Epson L110 printer

add to sources.list this line

deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty main

then http://askubuntu.com/questions/461506/d ... tion-stuck

driver epson-inkjet-printer-201207w

to have remote access to admin web

cupsctl --remote-admin
and

sudo usermod -aG lpadmin joggler

or check this webpage

http://injustfiveminutes.com/2013/11/07 ... min-inter/

for the cups admin password. Add the root or joggler user to the lpadmin group.

sudo usermod -aG lpadmin joggler

then use the joggler password to admin cups

airprint with:

apt-get install avahi-discover

How to install a Torrent Server

do an apt-get update and install the deamon

apt-get install transmission-daemon
edit /var/lib/transmission-daemon/info/settings.json and change the following lines (obviously in "mypass", put your torrent password)

"rpc-whitelist-enabled": false,
"rpc-password": "mypass",

edit /etc/init.d/transmission-daemon
this is another dirty and probably not safe trick, but is necessary if you want (as me) to download your torrent in a network share. Probably there are a better way, but for me it works.

#USER=debian-transmission
USER=root

finally, reload (NO RESTART, or you will lose the changes) the daemon:

/etc/init.d/transmission-daemon reload

The server can be access in http://joggler_ip:9091

Si el disco externo esta en ntfs. agregar a fstab
/dev/sda1 /media/disco ntfs-3g defauls 0 0

guidows · Post by **guidows** » Wed Jun 20, 2012 4:54 am

Other programs can be installed as is usual in a Linux distro with little space, but even is possible to install all this things and a Lamp Server and still have 100MB free. Not bad to have a Safe Little Server. Do someone have other "recipes"?

offbeatdave · Post by **offbeatdave** » Sun Jun 24, 2012 8:40 am

Thanks for all these suggestions. I'll be having a look at them when I get a moment!

wywywywy · Post by **wywywywy** » Wed Jul 04, 2012 9:28 pm

I've got another one - to change the font!

Useful if you need another Unicode font with more languages (e.g. Chinese/Japanese/Korean) in.

- Find a normal font and a bold font (e.g. Arial Unicode and Arial Bold Unicode from Win 7), rename them to FreeSans.ttf and FreeSansBold.ttf
- Install SSH
- SFTP to it
- Go to /opt/squeezeplay/share/jive/fonts
- Replace the two fonts there
- Reboot
- Profit!

Automatic spindown of usb hard drive connected to the joggler.

(asuming that the usb drive is using the /dev/sda device)

vi /etc/cron.hourly/spin.sh

# Get new state from diskstats
NEWstate=$(cat /proc/diskstats | grep sda)
echo $NEWstate > NEWstate.txt

# compare md5 sums

Hi guidows,

OK, I think I have it now. http://joggler_ip/picts/installer is how to install it (I read it that this was the target directory for the installation rather than the installer).

And the Admin menu options are accessible from the gallery3 when viewed via the browser.

Thanks for your guides.
