Hi there. It's been a while i'm wondering if this soundcard is linux
usable, especially the SPDIF facilities (since it's why my wife is
interested in this card.) The open source drivers projects around
creative products didn't convince me of wether this card do function or
not under our prefered OS. On this archive i found some hope but i would
thank a lot to hear "Yes boy you jusrt can relax plug your minidisc in
and enjoy."
sorry for the bad english and all and thanks for advices

Ahh, there is a new one... last time I tried it was the same (I own one of
each)... The Audigy driver is probably forked of the emu10k then...
But... it looks like the entries all point to 'emu10k1'.
I do still stand by my claim though, even if there is a new driver... what
applies to the Audigy most certainly applies to the Live. (I even think I
have experienced this with the Live)
Live has a chip called emu10k
Audigy has a chip called emu10k2 (or something similar)
They are in many respects the same, and that goes for the drivers also.

Yes, but wher vstserver tries to open a plugin, i have same error loops as wine
installation.

step?
to avoid mistakes, i've uninstalled wine with make uninstall. then I've
installed wine version suggested following this steps:
1)
tar xvfj vstserver-0.2.7-wine.tar.bz2
cd wine
./tools/wineinstall
2)
Configure finished. Do 'make depend && make' to compile Wine.
We need to install wine as root user, do you want us to build wine,
'su root' and install Wine? Enter 'no' to continue without installing
(yes/no)yes
3)
Wine build complete.
Performing 'make install' as root to install binaries, enter root
password
Password:
4)
Found existing /home/axiom/.wine/config, do you want to overwrite this
existing Wine configuration file?
(yes/no) yes
Would you like to make a backup of this old config file?
(yes/no)no
Searching for an existing Windows installation... not found. (no
matching /etc/fstab mount entry found)
Windows was not found on your system, so I assume you want
a Wine-only installation. Am I correct?
(yes/no)yes
Configuring Wine without Windows.
5)
Some fake Windows directories must be created, to hold any .ini files,
DLLs,
start menu entries, and other things your applications may need to
install.
Where would you like your fake C drive to be placed?
(default is /home/axiom/c)
Configuring Wine for a no-windows install in /home/axiom/c...
Created /home/axiom/.wine/config using default Wine configuration.
You probably want to review the file, though.
Compiling regedit...
make: Nothing to be done for `all'.
Preparing to install default Wine registry entries...
Installing default Wine registry entries...

I'm surprised you got the latest wine version to work with the vstserver,
I didn't think it should work. Have to check it out.

Yes, thats what you should do. :)

I didnt understand that. What is happening at which configuration step?

I am currently working on a 'no-compilation, no-installation,
no-programming' user manual for Alsa-Jack-Ladspa.
I wanted to bring some friends of mine to Linux. They use Windows based
music software, so i intended to do some introduction (in spanish) to the
capababilities of Alsa-Jack-Ladspa(-Ladcca?) arquitecture for final users.
Due to the initial intent I did it in Spanish. Now it seems language was a
wrong choice. Most related documentation is full of programming and
installation details and I think that it is a globally needed
documentation. So i plan to do it more general and translate it but only
after the structure would get some degree of stability.
The current (Spanish) draft is located at:
http://www.salleurl.edu/~is04069/Modders/Docs/alsadoc.html
Most mature sections are 'General arquitecture', 'Sequencer' and 'Config
files syntax'. Maybe, some alsa hacker who undestand Spanish (Jordi?
Nando?) could review them. I have lot's of questions, since i had to
figure out a lot of things from code or from proposals (which i don't know
if they finally get implemented as explained). But I will ask those
questions only to the developers lists. That's the correct audience by
now, isn't it?
