Re: Release notes for Excito B3 software version 2.4

And even if all perl objects were included in the package this would finally lead to a vast mixture of different perl versions on the system! Debian-Squeeze comes with perl v5.10.1-17, while the bundled package is for Perl 5.8-5.14 (at least the slimdevices page states that). How shall any package ...

Re: Release notes for Excito B3 software version 2.4

There's a stand-alone version that includes libraries for every supported processor and that will probably work as is (I did not verify this because I intended to stick to package manager), but the (ARM) package is much smaller and did not find the required Perl objects. Clearly these are not part ...

Re: Release notes for Excito B3 software version 2.4

@Ingo What needs to be done is add the same dependencies for SqueezeCenter to the LogitechMediaServer package. From what I've seen it is not safe to remove those 104 packages if you intend to use LogitechMediaServer - there should be no issues involving other packages, so if you don't it will be ok...

Re: Finding out what's using disk

Some additional info regarding the "dovecot-timefix" issue in /etc/cron.d/: as already said earlier: for me it's a dirty hack and obsolete with ntp beeing installed and configured. I leave it disabled because I do not use dovecot. Those of you who are concerned that ntp runs out of synchro...

Re: Release notes for Excito B3 software version 2.4

I just upgraded from 2.3.1.1 (as delivered) to 2.4 and afterwards observed that apt-get autoremove will purge 104 packages, almost all are *-perl packages. I did not autoremove yet, becaus I am afraid it will uninstall all the Excito specific additions. Or can I safely cleanup? Kind regards, Ingo A...

Re: HID device that used to work on bubba2 fails on b3

Hi, just for your information: I checked the syslog on my PC with Squeeze-amd64 which reports: Feb 14 22:00:07 pp kernel: [ 7.758532] generic-usb 0003:051D:0002.0001: hiddev0,hidraw0: USB HID v1.10 Device [American Power Conversion Back-UPS CS 650 FW:817.v4.I USB FW:v4] on usb-0000:00:02.0-1/input0 ...

Re: HID device that used to work on bubba2 fails on b3

Did you also enable "CONFIG_HID_PID=y", maybe apcupsd or udev needs it?

Ingo

EDIT: for the time beeing I can also shutdown my B3 via network while the UPS is attached to my nas running 'apcupsd'. I just have to configure the setup.

Re: HID device that used to work on bubba2 fails on b3

You are right. And my UPS now shows up as /dev/usb/hiddev0 like it does on the bubba2. I would also very much like this to be included in the kernel by default. Thanks for confirmation, that's exactly what I asked for at support. Please could you confirm to them as well? Title of confirmation for m...

Re: Finding out what's using disk

I just discovered another hourly write to the disk: /var/lib/ntp/ntp.drift This is the correction for the system clock from the ntp-server (I mentioned above for dovect time sensitivity). I'll search for a solution, that should reduce LCC's and SSC's by another 11 or 12 per day. Have 'ntp' also on m...

That's what I have done already on Wed. 8. Feb., with precise description how to fix, but no answer until now :-(
