Hi Stefan,
Sorry for the late reply. I only got to play this morning.
Got your package thanks heaps for this. Installed it perfectly but alas it didnt work because serviio requires GUI stuff.
But......
I figured out how to get Sun's Java 6 installed albeit there is still a problem.....read on....
First, to install Sun's Java6 JRE on x86 NAS do the following:
1. Add "deb http://archive.debian.org/debian-backports etch-backports main non-free" to /etc/apt/sources.list
2. type apt-get update
3. type dpkg-reconfigure debconf
Select Option 1 Dialog
Select Option 3 Medium
4. type apt-get install sun-java6-jre
So now that I have a pucker Java6 JRE, I started serviio but it blew out because I don't have DISPLAY set.
I have tried all sorts of suggestions to do this but can't get an xterm/SSH session from my Mac (Snow Leopard 10.6.8 ) to forward the DISPLAY variable to the SSH session on the NAS. Tried ssh -X root@nas, Tried setting XForwarding on (local ssh_config) and so on. I can login ok but echo $DISPLAY gives me nada.
Any ideas?
I thought I would ask you as you use a Mac too.
Bottom line is I want to run an X application on the NAS but want it to open up a window on the Mac.
Hmmm...nw router has arrived. Maybe offline for a little while ;)
