I'm provisioning a Mac Mini to act as a Last.fm music player at Casa Mia Café in Charlottetown.

Mac Mini Setup

  • First boot.
  • Walk through Apple setup (language, keyboard, registration, etc.)
  • Download Microsoft Intellitype drivers from here to support my Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000.
  • Install Google Chrome as an alternative to Safari.
  • Under System Preferences | Sharing, turn on Screen Sharing (with password) and File Sharing to support remote usage.

Install Last.fm Scrobbler

Set up Harland Scan

  • Install Xcode (LightBlue won't install without it)
  • Install LightBlue (test using these examples)
  • Install pysqlite2: sudo easy_install pysqlite2
  • Install haraldscan
    • Change references to pysqlite2 to sqlite3 in haraldsql.py and haraldscan.py
