[Voyage-linux] An MPD music server using ALIX and Voyage Linux

[Kim-man 'Punky' TSE]

Hi all,

Voyage had not been consider to run as music server, and the kernel is 
not compiled with the modules to support it.

If you need some kernel modules (USB, sound, etc.), please let me know 
and they will be added to the next release.

For mpd and ALSA package, they can always be added after installation by 
"apt-get"

Regards,
Punky
