Anyone tried squeezeplay on a linux platform?  I downloaded it and it
crashes complaining about a number of things.  I haven't found the rats
nest of squeezeplay/linux suggestions so if any of you have experience
w/this I'd appreciate the help.

-thanks

Yup, I'm currently using it as a radio frontend in my kitchen.

Yup. I built it myself from source. It takes a little while, but worked
for me once it was done:

svn co http://svn.slimdevices.com/repos/jive/7.3/trunk/squeezeplay

cd squeezeplay/src
make -f Makefile.linux
cd ../build/linux

bin/jive


Before you get too far down the route of trying to get this working on the
MVP I'd like to see if I can get my build of it working, saving you from
duplicating the work. But, to be honest I think it'll work out as being
too big/needing too much processor power to run nicely on the MVP.
