Maybe not, but it is repeatable. 1) /usr/sbin/ethtool -K eth1 rx off tx off /etc/init.d/mt-daapd restart Soundbridge cannot find the bubba. 2) /usr/sbin/ethtool -K eth1 rx on tx on /etc/init.d/mt-daapd restart soundbridge can see the bubba again. I repeated (1) and (2) as many times as I had the pat...

After the upgrade the firefly server disappeared from the network - it was not seen by my Roku soundbridge nor by amarok on my PC. editing the file /etc/init.d/disable-offload and changing the line from /usr/sbin/ethtool -K eth1 rx off tx off to #/usr/sbin/ethtool -K eth1 rx off tx off Has fixed the...

there is a socket on motherboard

The motherboard has a socket that I presume is intended to support a wlan card. If so there will also need to be an external antenna, as radio waves dont pass through metal cases very well :lol: (faraday cages block all electromagnetic waves - see the film "enemy of the state" :D )

After your:
apt-get remove --purge bubba-backend
apt-get -f install
apt-get install bubba-frontend
shouldn't that be remove bubba-backend, install bubba-backend???

I.e.

Code: Select all

apt-get remove --purge bubba-backend 
apt-get -f install
apt-get install bubba-backend

The web root directory for the bubba is /var/www. . My Bubba 2's web root is /home/www. This is where the index.html is stored and where phpmyadmin installed itself to (using apt-get install ...). it could be that /var/www is a link to the /home/www directory, but if I remember right, the apache co...

mediatomb needs MySql. I noticed too that mediatomb worked mysql very hard (quickly running up hours of CPU time) when I up-loaded 15000+ songs to /home/storage/music/... It all depends what you plan to use on your Bubba2 (or LAN) that uses MySQL or Postgres. They can coexist together if you wanted ...

Hi David, When you connect your bubba directly to your and get the MTU of 576, could you try to run the commands (as root): iptables -A INPUT -p icmp -m icmp --icmp-type 3/4 -j ACCEPT iptables -A FORWARD -p icmp -m icmp --icmp-type 3/4 -j ACCEPT This will open up the capabilites for bubba to talk t...

I would like to comment that from what I have seen in this and other threads, the Excito staff have been very responsive and proactive. They are also themselves going up a learning curve with this new product and the sort of problems that can arise when us excitable users are let loose with a new to...

What do you mean by install? bubba doesn't itself out-of-the-box support X as it doesn't have a terminal, so you would only be able to run a X application on the bubba via something like ssh -X. If you want to run the "installed" application on another computer then you will just be using ...

Does the Bubba 2 REQUIRE the usb device to be a flash drive?

It may be that a portable hard disk with a USB interface works just as well ...
