Copying this from thread about CPU hogging as I'm not sure it's the same issue the OP of that thread has. I appear to have two copies of LMS running on my machine.
Dualcore 2Ghz system with 2G ram, running Kubuntu 12.04. System is not "stuck" scanning music folder. I have no plugins and am using LMS 7.7.2 - r33893
I just looked at the LMS log file and see this:
/usr/share/squeezeboxserver/lib/Log/Log4perl/Logger.pm line 900
2012-05-16 19:19:42 Logitech Media Server died. Restarting.

This happens (and gets logged) about every five seconds, constantly. How do I fix this?

Log files say another copy of LMS running.

I had the same problem recently.
In /etc/init.d there were two scripts:
An old squeezeboxserver and a new logitechmediaserver one.
The actual install is still under squeezeboxserver directories, but due to the two scripts it was started twice.Did you know: SqueezePlayer will stream all your music to your Android device. Take your music everywhere!

yeah!
Thanks Bluegsapode! Deleted the Squeezeboxserver entry from init.d directory and all is well. My CPU thanks you. I wonder if there was a mechanism for the old entry to be removed when SBS was renamed LMS.
I do also notice that when I'm on the server settings page the page seems to get refreshed every five seconds or so - is this normal?
