edit /etc/init/dbus.conf so that start on will be:

Code:

start on startup

edit /etc/init/avahi-daemon.conf so that start on will be:

Code:

start on started dbus

remove file /etc/init/dbus-reconnect.conf

reboot

Well.. that got Airplay to show in my MAC... and it seems to WANT to stream sound... but just shows streaming 0:01... and doesnt play... PROGRESS!!!

@rbthompsonv
a little off topic, but. what stick you have?

can you retest the wifi but with ifplugd service stopped completely (from ssh just run "service ifplugd stop")?

and just report whether it has effect on wifi 'flakiness' for you. for instance with my old ASUS rtl2800 usb, i can't get DHCP IP at all, if ifplugd is active for wlan0 interface.

Wifi is this one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/300937347507?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649

(Sorry for the direct link to ebay... but I dont know the exact model... just happened to be the cheapest N that was linux and mac compatible out of the box...)

As for ifplugd... i get bash: service: command not found from ssh

Will try from gui and report back

As for disabling ifplugd ... nope, doesnt seem to help... I sort of think it may be my shitty router from comcast... I think it cant handle the traffic and causes "Buffering" issues. (Ill play a video, sometimes it plays fine for a day, other times it has to buffer every 2 minutes... about 1 in 10 buffering attempts just fail (never shows buffering at the top, and it just locks up the RPi... Either dropping out to XMBC menu or rebooting)
