After many problem free years, my trusty Empeg has gotten sick. I have no control at all from the buttons nor the knob. The remote fails to elicit any response from the unit as well. I also tried using the Sony stalk I have hooked into my tuner, but the results were the same. The only way to access any kind of control from it is to use the usb or network connection to either Emplode/jEmplode or the web interface (cushman or charcoalgray99's).

After using the web interface, the Empeg will boot back up where it left off at, but then stops right there (unless a playlist had been selected and started already) and continue no further.

Anyone have any ideas what could be causing this? I'm including a copy of the bootlog as well in case some info can be found within it.
