Hello all,
I having a huge amount of trouble getting a Media Director to work with my Pluto Home Core. I need the Media Director to be wireless so as far as I understand it, I need to install Linux MCE on the MD PC. This is what I've done so far:
1. Install Kubuntu 7.10 from Live CD, then managed after hours of the install didn't move to the second part after a reboot to install Linux MCE on top of that.
2. Install Full Linux MCE 7.10 install from DVD.
3. Install Full Linux MCE 7.04 install from DVD.
When all three of the above are completed I get stuck on the Linux MCE Launch Manager with the following:
Finished spawning new children devices - core
Finished respawning of new children devices
then after a short pause...
Connection to DCERouter terminated
Reconnecting to DCERouter as requested
Connecting to router 10.1.0.25
Connect OK....
It goes through this loop continually and never connects up properly.
Watching DCERouter.log on the Pluto Core i get the following around the time the Connection to DCERouter terminated:
3 04/30/08 09:52:32 DCERouter (server) Device died... count=142/200 dev=DCERouter
Wed Apr 30 09:52:32 BST 2008 died
But every few times I get something like this:

The only thing that isn't set is in the Connections tab of the MCE Launch Manager is the MySQL details, I haven't done this because there is nothing on the web or in the logs that suggests that I need to.
I would really appreciate any help here as I know how good this setup could be I just seem to be missing something.
Thankyou in advance,
Andy Jones
