I was sitting right next to my BubbaII when this happened. Among other things it was hashing a torrent file at the time. Then there was an extended disk read/write (I could hear). After that BubbaII wouldn't respond to ping. I disconnected the power, waited 30sec, then booted it. The drive spun like...

okay, I found this in /etc/dconfig-common/squeezecenter.conf
changing that to "root' solved the above problem.

I'm trying to reconfigure as above. Unfortunately I keep getting the odd message: mysql said: ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root@localhost'@'localhost' (using password: NO) There are two things I don't understand about this: 1) I thought dpkg used the debian-sys-maint for mysql tasks 2...

The OP regarding encryptedFS now works as of the 2.6.26.5-8 kernel.

Thanks for including the module, Bubba Folks.

Try this: replace the key with the one offered in the error message.

Well, I couldn't wait. And it worked perfectly. Thanks for the help.

The only deviation I made from the instructions is to cp ./union to /usr/bin/unison-2.27.5 and then link /usr/bin/unison-latest-stable to it. But that was just a bit of housekeeping.

Thanks. Guess I have my project for the weekend.

jonj1: you don't happen to use Unison from another debian box running Lenny or Squish to your bubbaII running Etch? I've stepped down my Squish unison version so it's the same as the Etch version, but I believe there is an underlying library incompatibility that's making this fail. I just wanted to ...

Since Sonos runs off of a windows share and BubbaII comes with Samba already installed, I doubt you will have any problems. Setting up a samba share takes about an hour if you have no idea what you're doing, and 5 minutes if you do. Most of the steps from the following aren't necessary because it's ...

I'd like to encrypt my data related partitions in the case that ninja storm my abode and decide the black box with the pretty blue light is worth stuffing into a pouch. Firstly, I'd like to thank the folks at Excito for having the foresight to lvm 90% of the drive. Here's what I've done so far: -- f...

I don't use the Bubba2 web-admin interface for anything. Instead, I use my bubba2 as a normal debian box and do everything form the CLI. Is there any hardware/driver reason I couldn't upgrade my distro to Lenny as long as I'm willing to never use any excito specific software? That is, is there anyth...

Looks like you have the option "keep" on, or that's the default -- instead of "nokeep". If you have "keep" set, then the messages will be downloaded, but will remain on the server. Fetchmail keeps track of what it has downloaded and will only acknowledge (such as in you...

The default 'admin' user has group 'admin', which is normal for debian these days [though I scoff at the Redhat-ism]. If you create a user via the admin tool you are assigned [username] and group 'users' instead of group [username]. Is there a special reason for this? [since I'm about to change them...

This worked for me:

mount /dev/tape -t electrical /dev/led

Though, I'd rather have a more elegant solution
