[Voyage-linux] Problems with cover art and Mpod/Mpad

Hello Hans,

For me this setup is working fine with local cover art. Just a few 
things to check:
- The file name is case sensitive. Folder.jpg is not the same as folder.jpg.
- With mpad when loading the library and images it seems to load the 
images from the other sources (or not at all if they are not available). 
Only when I click on an album and press 'reload cover' the local file is 
loaded. I'm sure it is just a setting somewhere but this seems to be the 
way it is working out of the box for me.
- Make sure the root directory for both mpd and lighttpd is the same. 
Otherwise mpad and mpod will be looking in the wrong place.

Kind regards,

Maarten
