Snakeoil Firmware - 1.1.10 (Blind Testing Update 10)

[agent_kith]

Introduction
Releases have slowed right down in 2020. Lots of ideas, little time and motivation to execute. Apologies for this and I'll try and get my act together.

Minimserver is updated to v2 in this update. To install this version, please go to the Snakeoil menu and uninstall your existing minimserver (if you are already running minimserver 0.8) and reinstall again. I tried to get v2 running in a seperate folder but that does not really work well. Note that the newer version of minimserver is only the starter edition. You have to go to their website to purchase the paid license.

In other words: Snakeoil activation does not include minimserver 2 paid license.

Let me know how this release goes. cheers.

That's strange...

Once logged in, can you run:

Code:

sudo snakeoil-rest

and show me what it says?

Also, you can recover back to 1.1.9 by using this method. Let me know if u still have problems, I can probably remote in to identify what the problem is and fix it.

I've pulled 1.1.10 until I can fully understand what the problem is.. Guys who have installed and have problems with 1.1.10, please let me know what problems you have. thanks.

I think I know what the problem is.. :( Should have tested this "Update lighttpd.conf file to remove deprecated configuration" more. Will try and sneak in a fix soonish. Apologies again for this crap release! :(

Thanks for your devoted heart!
Look, may I know that, can I choose between minimserver 0.8.5.2 and 2.0 in this Update 10?

Hi, just saying - I had no trouble updating Ubuntu, or to 1.1.10.

Yesterday I clicked on the Minimserver button, and over a few minutes the OS stopped functioning, so I closed down.

Today it all works as before - JRiver24 and mpd both play music fine. Haven't tried the Minimserver thing again though. Too nice having music.

Aha.... explains why I saw the forum Header Latest FW: 1.1.10 (Blind Testing Update 10) (September 28)

But when I unpacked and powered up the Dashboard said 'up to date'
