Re: Any chance for a board to be produced?

Yeah, that's the autorouter being silly. Those traces are all connected to ground, but the autorouter only does 0-45-90 degree paths, and it doesn't fill polygons or anything. I realized I used the "top" layer for the routing though, which is probably not what you want if you send in this ...

Re: Any chance for a board to be produced?

Here's what I have so far. A few notes: - I reordered the pins used by the LCD display. This led to an easier PCB design, since in the original pin assignment there were a lot of connections crossing. THIS REQUIRES A CHANGE IN LCD.h though. You need to reverse the order of the LCD_DATA0 to LCD_DATA3...

Re: Any chance for a board to be produced?

Ok, there's a few small modifications I need to make, but then I'll post the sch and brd files here, if that works for you. Since it's my first experience designing with Eagle, I'd be obliged if you could check my work :).

Re: Any chance for a board to be produced?

I am in the process of developing a PCB layout for this project. If anyone is interested, I'd be willing to share it here (including the .sch). Maybe if enough people are interested in a PCB we could order a batch together.

Re: problem with mpd starting

Oh, wait, I think I see the problem. The symlink in /etc/rc.d/ does not point to the file "/etc/init.d/mpd", but to a directory "/etc/init.d/mpd/" (notice the trailing slash?). Removing the link in /etc/rc.d and recreating it without the trailing "/" should fix your pro...

Re: problem with mpd starting

So what's the content of your mpd script in /etc/init.d? Try "cat /etc/init.d/mpd"

Re: problem with mpd starting

No, there is no better way to automatically start something at boot. Putting a script in /etc/init.d and then linking to it from /etc/rc.d is simply the way this is done.

What does "ls /etc/init.d/ -l" give? What about "ls /etc/rc.d/ -l" ?

Re: New Build -

From the dmesg output it looks like your sound device is recognized properly, but you are missing a sound related package (kmod-sound-core). Are you sure downloaded the image from MightyOhm and followed his tutorial accurately? He mentions something about manually installing kmod-sound-core if it do...

Re: Building my first internet radio

What you describe is pretty much what MightyOhm built, minus the LCD display. If you want to start small, I'd suggest skipping the electronics part, and sticking to the software mod. This allows you to build an internet radio that you can control using your desktop/laptop/smartphone. This is essenti...
