Snakeoil Firmware - 1.2.7 (Gear Isolation U7)

[misko1989]

for me 1.2.7 did not work. i am using upmpdcli. after i reverted back to 1.2.5, everything works perfectly as always... hope this feedback helps somehow...

Upgrading to latest version of Ubuntu should make it work again. There is this library (a software package) called glibc, and newer versions of this will not run on older systems.

This is kind of the reason why Snakeoil has moved away from ISO and go with an installer for new installs. Because software keeps changing and it's difficult and time consuming to make the player work on both new and old operating systems.

You can update your Snakeoil PC by running: sudo do-release-upgrade

And follow the prompts. (Best to research on the Internet for full instructions if this is something you havn't done before)

I did as you said. After that I had to do 1.2.6 installer and after that did upgrade to 1.2.7. And same problem again. I use foobar on my pc to play using upmpdcli on my snakeoil os nuc. When I play some track it just doesn't start playing. It is stuck at 0:00. Everything was working perfectly till 1.2.5. Now I cannot revert back to 1.2.5 with ubuntu 22 installed. I have also tried reinstalling all the players and that also did not help.
I will send you diagnostics file to email if you can please check when you have time.




Edit:

in addition, i have this:
