The file is (in Debian at least) /etc/hotplug/blacklist. Placing the offending
OSS driver names there prevents the hotplug system from loading them. You
only need to blacklist ones such as usb-audio and usb-midi that are indeed
loaded by hotplug and conflict.
Another similar program is "Discover". If you are using this, then "sound" and
such should be excluded.
Alsa has an OSS compatibility so that applications that use OSS can still run.
Hi,
My hda1 partition is becoming %100 used and I don't
know why. This began happening after a system lockup
where I had to power cycle. I made about 9.7Gig of
space available on the drive but after another lockup
and power cycle the drive is %100 used again.
[studio@stepdaddy studio]$ df -H
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted
on
/dev/hda2 38GB 36GB 118MB 100% /
/dev/hda1 104MB 21MB 79MB 21% /boot
MOUNT
/dev/hda2 on / type ext3 (rw)
FSTAB
LABEL=/ / ext3
defaults 1 1
LABEL=/boot /boot ext3
defaults 1 2
none /dev/pts devpts
gid=5,mode=620 0 0
none /proc proc
defaults 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs
defaults 0 0
/dev/hda3 swap swap
defaults 0 0
I looked for hints in /var/log/messages but didn't see
anything interesting. I didn't see any logs for
filesystems.
Could it be that ext3 is doing something to cause
this? Perhaps the filesystem needs to be checked.
At one point, I removed about two gigs of data and 'df
-H' reported available space at around 500MB. I'm not
sure what that might indicate.
I don't know anything about ext3 and how it works or
what it does but I guess that's where I'll start my
studies. Maybe it's a hardware problem with the HD. I
hope it isn't. If anyone has some clues about what I
should do or ideas for what might be happening, I
could really use the help.

Hi all,
a short announcement for those who might plan to do a presentation at the
next Linux Audio Conference in April 2005 in Karlsruhe: The paper templates
for OpenOffice and LaTeX are now available at:
http://www.zkm.de/lac/downloads.shtml
We are a little late with this for which I am sorry, but I hope you were not
blocked in writing your papers. Reminder: The deadline for paper submissions
(as well as music, workshops, project notes, posters) is January 10th, 2005.
For more details about the conference and the calls for paper etc, please
visit the web page at http://www.zkm.de/lac.
Greetings,

Hi there,
I'm writing some swing charts with rosegarden, and I was
wondering if there's a way to make the performance swing the
eighth notes without changing the written notation. Thanks!

Hydrogen does not compile on my system.
It's configure shows that all the supporting software
is available on my system, but the make program
fails.
Three weeks ago I e-mailed the Hydrogen programmer
an error report, with all the details, including the
complete error message given out by Hydrogen's make
file, but I've yet to hear anything back.
Now, if you want to de-bug Hydrogen so it runs
on my kernel 2.4.26 system you are welcome! I would
really like to have it. But as things stand now, the only
drum program that runs for me is Trommler.
And I really like it.
Kai,
Thank you very much for the info, now I can access the 2nd soundcard without a
problem.
Might I respectfully suggest adding some clarification or example of how to
use the alsa (alsa, alsahw, alsa,plughw) input and output options for
ecamegapedal in the ecamegapedal manpage... I was clueless.
Thank you for an awesome piece of Linux audio software by the way.
Ecamegapedal and the LADSPA plugins can turn even a 200MHz Pentium pro into a
great effects box.

core files on my system have the pid appended, so:
find / -name "core.[0-9]*" -exec ls -l {} \;
(might be a 2.6-ism)
Also, I would never rm the files without thinking about it first, hence
the change from rm to ls -l
But better is to find all large recent files:
find / -size +1000000c -mtime -1 | xargs ls -l
prints all files changed more recently than one day ago and larger than 1MB
I have one of these, works fine under Debian 2.6.* kernels using alsa.
I do get error -5 messages but they may be coming from the 2nd USB which has
no device on it.
Check to make sure that it is indeed alsa which is running (one USB driver
covers both audio and MIDI). If need be, "blanklist" the OSS USB drivers.
With timidity you can specify the output and name a
file for it; ex.
timidiy -P ocarina.pat whistle.mid -Ow whistle.wav
How does one accomplish the same thing with pmidi?
I've tried the following variations:
pmidi (-p 129:0) whatever.mid >> whatever.wav
pmidi whatever.mid > whatever.wav
pmidi whatever.mid | whatever.wav
... but none seem to work. Do I need to try something
involving 'cat' and '/dev/dsp'? (I'd try it directly,
instead of pestering you guys, but I'm not at home on
that machine right now).
Alternatively, does timidity allow using a different
softsynth than the .pat files, such as amsynth or
fluidsynth? How do you specify the port like you do
with pmidi?
TIA,
Mark

Hello the list,
For people who don't know Oneshot Samples, let me do a little flashback...
Oneshot Samples is an engine dedicated to share short copyright free sound
samples amongst independant music composers.
First released at the end of 2001, it was stopped because of copyright
infringement, the biggest samples editors were falling on my neck with
juridic threaten, After one year of standby and work to remove the samples
that were litigious, I have bounced the cheaters and setup a registering
by invitation.
The site is running again since 3 weeks :)
I will be happy to invite anyone interesting to join from the list because
I'm sure that linux fellows are very aware to any copyright issues :)
