[linux-audio-user] strange problems with snd

[Dave Phillips]

Hi, Nathaniel:

  Your system's Motif may in fact be LessTif. I've been having troubles
with that build lately, though Marco Trevisani has built and used it
(under Debian IIRC). I recommend the OpenMotif group's version instead
of Lessif.

  I think your second problem is due to an out-of-date Guile. Version
1.6.0 is now available (check Google for Guile) but I haven't heard yet
from anyone build Snd with it. I use version 1.5.6, I think that's now
available on the CCRMA ftp server.

Best regards,

== Dave Phillips
