Plex Media Server on Slackware64

Gee Man · 10-01-2012, 01:55 PM

I've been using roconnect for the past year on my slack64-13.37 desktop. It has worked well with my roku, but I feel like I could do better. Today I've been dying to update my desktop to 14, and have been looking at Plex. I noticed there is a slackware package for it, but it looks like only 32-bit.

Anyone have any advice or suggestions?

Edit: I noticed there is a .deb package for Ubuntu which is 64 bit. I've been going over the Google chrome slack build in extra/. Let's see if I can make this work.

I guess I like to over complicate things. As I was going over the structure of the plex package I noticed it should work fine on Slackware64. All the required libs are included. I installed the unraid package, and then

Code:

/etc/rc.d/rc.plexmediaserver start

Code:

sh /use/local/plexmediaserver/start.sh

Works fine:-) Duh!!!
