Hi,

Has anyone tried to get firefly running on a Marvell based device?

I have a DS-207+ and think that the MT-DAAPD version pre-installed is a bit out of date.

Thanks for any help

Cheers
Paul

O? Hmm...It's nice. I'll try to compile it. :wink:

BTW, HarryPotter, you have a marvell-base box now.

Hi all

Just got mt-daapd up and running on my CS-407.
I'll try to compile all the files, libraries and pack them up somewhere tomorrow.

But basically it was just to compile gdbm 1.8.3 & libid3tag-0.15 into /opt/local and then build mt-daapd, copy the config file from the distro, edit some paths in the config file and of you go.

Well I fixed it this evening anyway.

You can find them at the Wiki now

Good luck...

Ok, someone did it, Paul.

Hi Guys,

Sorry for the probably simple question, not a linux expert here!

I installed the files, un tar'ed them and edited the root/.profile, but when I start the application I get:

Marvin> /opt/local/mt-daapd/etc/init.d/firefly start
Starting DAAP daemon: mt-daapd
/opt/local/mt-daapd/sbin/mt-daapd: error while loading shared libraries: libgdbm
.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Is there somthing else I need to do to install the libraries, i just copied them into the root and typed tar -xf libfilename.

Thanks
Paul

You should download gdbm and libid3tag too. They're at the bottom of that wiki page. And they should be in the path /opt/local/lib(for example, /opt/local/lib/libgdbm.so.*).

To ensure they ended up in the correct folder you can do

Code: Select all: find /opt -name libgdbm

I think it should be:

Code: Select all: find /opt -name libgdbm*

Many thanks, that was the issue. I copied all the files from the lib subdirectories as directed and it starts.

So now i'm working on getting it to autostart.

I thought if I added '/opt/local/mt-daapd/etc/init.d/firefly start &' to /etc/rc.local it would start automatically too, but that doesnt seem to work. Any advice?

cheers
