I’ve been trying to install the Firefly media server so I can connect with my Macbook(iTunes 7.3.1, Mac OSX 10.4.10) to the music on my Ubuntu server(7.04, Server Edition).
I’ve installed the mt-daapd_0.9-svn-1586_feisty_i386.deb and resolved all dependencies.
The processes are running as far as I know

Killing all the mt-daapd processes and running the deamon in the foreground returns:

Does anyone have an idea?
The bonjour thing is a known bug. It shows not running, but it is.
As far as it not showing up, this seems to be a recurring feisty issue, but I don’t have a good answer for why. Clearly avahi is already running, and the app is running, but the multicast isn’t working.
What avahi version do you have?
