Re: Media Player won't find any files
 

load-applet, that's it :P

I'm v.sure metalayer-crawler isn't mediaplayer-engine. I'd test but this install of openssh is taking up my cpucycles and not letting me load anything.

Re: Media Player won't find any files
 

I entered this ( as root) into xterminal as you suggested and got :

1888 RW grep metalayer

I don't know how to interpret that response. Any help there?

Re: Media Player won't find any files
 

"ps -la | grep metalayer-crawler" - what does that say? I don't think it will say much though.

I checked, it is metalayer-crawler. Not metalayer.

Re: Media Player won't find any files
 

It says " 1888 RW grep metalayer-crawler"

Re: Media Player won't find any files
 

yes, I thought so. metalayer-crawler isnt running:
1888 RW grep metalayer-crawler"

That's the command we just ran.

Try running /usr/bin/metalayer-crawler . And see if media player works then.
if not found, try sbin instead of bin

Its not a fix however, check the /etc/rc2 folder.

Re: Media Player won't find any files
 

Hey man, thanks very much for the help. that command solved my problem. The default media player now finds my tunes again.

I'm glad it works but I don't think it will run on reboot :)

Do this:
ln -s /etc/init.d/metalayer-crawler0 /etc/rc2.d/S99metalayer-crawler0
ln -s /etc/init.d/metalayer-crawler0 /etc/rc5.d/S99metalayer-crawler0

as root in terminal :)

Re: Media Player won't find any files
 

Oops, after rebooting the default media player is empty again. So check ect/rc2 folder now? What am I looking for?

Re: Media Player won't find any files
 

Just run the above commands as root :)

Re: Media Player won't find any files
 

OK, I input both of these commands. The first set response was "file exists. The response to the second was "invalid option" There was more Like : " ln ( OPTION ) TARGET ... LINK_NAME \ DIRECTORY
