Re: [LAD] [Jack-Devel] JACK for openSUSE 11.0 x86_64

by Ralf Mardorf

Hi :) I added what I did below chronologically arranged. The first try failed because of Packman libs. The second try failed because of less Packman libs too. I don't know what to install and then how to use ldconfig. When I last tried to remove the whole studio in the box, by removing or first install and then removing jack by zypper it failed. I installed jack by YaST2 from repo-oss. I don't know what to do. I can't install or remove jack, all because I upgraded from the repo-oss version 0.109 to the Packman's version 0.116.

Problems with compiling

by Ralf Mardorf

Hi :) I'm searching the following headers by http://www.rpmseek.com/index.html: #include <iostream> #include <fstream> #include <cerrno> Does anybody know where I can find them for Suse 11.1 RC? RPM Seek now is searching for more than 200 seconds ;). I wish to have a howto on German, to make a audio workstation for Suse 11.1, that's why I started a thread for the release candidate on English, but I failed with doing this. I can't build a kernel for Suse, I once patched without trouble for 64 Studio 2.1. Any help at http://forums.opensuse.org/pre-release-beta/401422-enable-realtime-audio-mi… is welcome. Cheers, Ralf

Just a test

by Ralf Mardorf

Sorry to the lists, please ignore this mail, it's a test if my mails come through the list. @ Oc2pus: That's strange. I'm member at jack-dev list. I haven't written to Packman, because of the troubles we had at Linux-Club. Maybe mirroring failed for the server I have jackd from. I can't change to Suse right now. If you can write me were the script is, with the information for the YaST2 and zypper servers, I can take a look from my Lenny and than we should first diff if the package is equal to that of another server. The only other thing I can imagine is, that VideoLAN might cause a conflict, even if YaST2 says that the dependencies aren't inconsistent. -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: [LAD] [Jack-Devel] JACK for openSUSE 11.0 x86_64 Date: Mon, 15 Dec 2008 18:52:14 +0100 From: oc2pus(a)arcor.de To: Ralf Mardorf <ralf.mardorf(a)alice-dsl.net> References: <494681DB.6030804(a)alice-dsl.net> <200812151757.17264.oc2pus(a)arcor.de> <49469359.9070308(a)alice-dsl.net> Am Montag, 15.

JACK for openSUSE 11.0 x86_64

by Ralf Mardorf

Hi :) I have this problem too: http://ardour.org/node/2271 If I go back to the Suse 11.0 version before 0.116, it's 0.109, the message changes from "jackd: symbol lookup error: jackd: undefined symbol: clock_source" to "jackd: symbol lookup error: jackd: undefined symbol: _jack_get_microseconds". I tried to write with the German community (at Linux-Club Suse and Packman community) about such issues, but they aren't interested in their bugs and because they laugh about me, I'm not interested anymore to report anything to them. Everything I tried to inform about, should be wrong they say and laugh and there were a lot of bugs similar to that one, for audio and MIDI realtime applications from the standard repositories Oss, Non-Oss, Updates, Packman and VideoLAN. Also there are often versions that aren't good for professional work. I removed the jack package by YaST2 and then ... suse11:/usr/lib # rm libjack* suse11:/usr/lib64 # rm libjack* After I installed jack again, I got "jackd: error while loading shared libraries: libjackserver.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory". Does anybody know a Suse community that is interested to solve those things? I'm fine with the Debian 64 Studio audio community. Isn't there such a friendly community for Suse (not JAD)? For some reasons I like to use Debian 64 Studio and Suse, but Suse often is a pain in the arse, because of a narrow views having community. Do I need to compile jack myself for Suse 11.0? Before I upgraded jack, I don't get any error messages. Cheers, Ralf

[ANN] LADITools 1.0-rc1 released

by MarcO'Chapeau

Hi all, After quite some time spent doing nothing, a lot of polishing from Nedko, a lot of suggestions from Kfoltman, and absolutely no effort from me to make things go faster... I am very proud to announce the first release candidate of LADITools 1.0 code name "flabbergasting-mademoiselle-sitting-on-my-hat" (yeah... I bought a new hat for those who wonder) LADITools is a set of tools aiming to achieve the goals of the LADI project (http://nedko.arnaudov.name/wiki/moin.cgi/LADI) to improve desktop integration and user work-flow of Linux audio system based on JACK and LASH. Those tools take advantage of the DBus interfaces recently added to JACK and LASH to ease the configuration and use of those two great softwares. Ok, sounds good... but what does it really do ? LADITools is a software suite containing various utilities to make your life a little easier when working with JACK and LASH clients. You will find in this suite : * The laditools python module (no interest for the end users) * laditray : a system tray icon that allows you to start, stop and monitor JACK, as well as start some JACK related apps (log viewer, connections...) * wmladi : a controller as a Window Maker dockapp. Uses the same menu as laditray * ladilog : a JACK, LASH and a2jmidid log viewer * ladiconf : a GUI to setup JACK's configuration * g15ladi : a JACK monitor for g15 keyboards You can download it from the LADITools homepage here : http://www.marcochapeau.org/software/laditools. Some updated screenshots will be made available soon. As far as docs and bug reporting are concerned, you'll have to come and ask on #LAD or #jack about it :) My thanks go to Nedko Arnaudov who is the brain hidden behind this plan to take over the world using DBus interfaces, Krzysztof Foltman who tests, suggests and code a lot more than I do, a lot of people from IRC who also made suggestions and contributions for the past year, and of course, the whole set of JACK/LASH developers who accepted to have a DBus control interface get into their repo :) Cheers, -- Marc-Olivier Barre -- --- MarcO'Chapeau ---- - www.marcochapeau.org -

Softsynths from Java

by Richard Just

Hey there, I have a Java app that can output Midi and I want to be able to access softsynths on a Linux system. Is there already a project out there that does such a thing? Would it be best to interface with Ladspa or Jack? Any info would be greaty appreciated! Richard

[ANN] QjackCtl 0.3.4 is out!

by Rui Nuno Capela

hi, A semester has gone by, since last release, with no big news on this front. Alas, on the verge of the coming one-dot-oh release of the mighty JACK Audio Connection Kit, here goes one fine update of its old and aged Qt GUI front-end: QjackCtl 0.3.4 is out! Nothing much new to see but you might welcome the patchbay snapshot revamp, which might finally do the right thing, and the rand new translations that are getting in place: German (de), Spanish(es), French (fr) and Russian (ru). Many thanks to all involved. With no further ado, the good stuff is ready from the usual places. Website: http://qjackctl.sourceforge.net Project page: http://sourceforge.net/projects/qjackctl Download: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/qjackctl/qjackctl-0.3.4.tar.gz Weblog: http://www.rncbc.org License: QjackCtl is free, open-source software, distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL) version 2 or later. Change-log: 0.3.4 2008-12-05 Patchbay snapshot revamp. - Introducing the very first and complete translations in-package: German (de), Spanish (es), French (fr) and Russian (ru); credits in TRANSLATORS. - At last, after years of retarded procrastination, the old infamous patchbay snapshot feature has been the subject of a almost complete rewrite and it does try to give a way better mapping of all actual and current running client/port connections, both JACK (audio, MIDI) and ALSA MIDI, of course ;) - On Setup/Settings/Parameters dialog, all device selection options are now reset to default when disabled interactively. - Grayed/disabled palette color group fix for dark color themes. - Qt Software logo update. - Fait-divers: desktop menu file touched to openSUSE conventions. - ALSA PCM devices now only listed/enumerated iif strictly compliant with the audio mode criteria (Duplex, Capture-only or Playback-only) as kindly suggested by Nedko Ardaunov. - JACK client/port aliases may now be displayed as a global user option (see Setup/Display/Connections/JACK client/port aliases). - Lighten up the connections line and highlight colors, as seen to fit best on some darker background themes. - Patchbay snapshot fixed to differentiate socket clients according to its type (Audio, MIDI or ALSA-Seq), avoiding the mess and gross mistake of hanging disparate type ports under the same client item. - JACK_DEFAULT_SERVER environment variable is now appended to the X11 unique application identifier, allowing for having multiple instances each controlling its own JACK server, besides the default one. - Due to some trouble with newer Qt >= 4.4 applications regarding font size configuration, a new global user option is now available to the rescue: Setup/Misc/Defaults/Base font size (default is no-op). Cheers && Enjoy. -- rncbc aka Rui Nuno Capela rncbc at rncbc dot org
