[linux-audio-user] Problems mounting CDROM

Hi there, sorry if this is a little basic for you guys but I can't mount CDROMs. If I do: mount /dev/scd0 I get: /dev/scd0 is not a valid block device My /etc/fstab is: /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 iso9660 ro,user,noauto 0 0 The output of ls -l /dev/cdrom0 is: brw-rw---- 1 root cdrom 11, 0 2004-05-21 02:22 /dev/scd0 The output of lsmod is: Module Size Used by Not tainted snd-seq-oss 30752 0 (autoclean) (unused) snd-seq-midi 3968 0 (autoclean) (unused) snd-seq-midi-event 3648 0 (autoclean) [snd-seq-oss snd-seq-midi] snd-seq 41968 5 (autoclean) [snd-seq-oss snd-seq-midi snd-seq-midi-event] mousedev 3832 1 keybdev 1892 0 (unused) hid 18628 0 (unused) input 3296 0 [mousedev keybdev hid] af_packet 13896 1 (autoclean) uhci 23772 0 (unused) ehci-hcd 16172 0 (unused) usbcore 56684 1 [hid uhci ehci-hcd] snd-intel8x0 21452 1 snd-ac97-codec 56604 0 [snd-intel8x0] gameport 1436 0 [snd-intel8x0] snd-mpu401-uart 4096 0 [snd-intel8x0] snd-hdsp 40520 1 snd-pcm-oss 39944 0 snd-mixer-oss 13880 2 [snd-pcm-oss] snd-pcm 65664 0 [snd-intel8x0 snd-hdsp snd-pcm-oss] snd-timer 16868 0 [snd-seq snd-pcm] snd-hwdep 5280 0 [snd-hdsp] snd-page-alloc 6552 0 [snd-intel8x0 snd-hdsp snd-pcm] snd-rawmidi 14656 0 [snd-seq-midi snd-mpu401-uart snd-hdsp] snd-seq-device 4324 0 [snd-seq-oss snd-seq-midi snd-seq snd-rawmidi] snd 36132 0 [snd-seq-oss snd-seq-midi snd-seq-midi-event snd-seq snd-intel8x0 snd-ac97-codec snd-mpu401-uart snd-hdsp snd-pcm-oss snd-mixer-oss snd-pcm snd-timer snd-hwdep snd-rawmidi snd-seq-device] soundcore 3876 7 [snd] 8139too 13896 1 mii 2096 0 [8139too] crc32 2864 0 [8139too] ohci1394 23024 0 (unused) ieee1394 183556 0 [ohci1394] sr_mod 12216 0 (autoclean) (unused) isofs 23480 0 (autoclean) ide-scsi 8656 0 scsi_mod 89312 2 [sr_mod ide-scsi] ide-cd 28128 0 (autoclean) cdrom 25344 0 (autoclean) [sr_mod ide-cd] ext3 71144 8 (autoclean) jbd 40312 8 (autoclean) [ext3] ide-detect 288 0 (autoclean) (unused) piix 7496 2 (autoclean) ide-disk 12704 9 (autoclean) ide-core 98268 9 (autoclean) [ide-scsi ide-cd ide-detect piix ide-disk] unix 16236 33 (autoclean) I'm using DeMuDi 1.2 with a 2.4 kernel.

[linux-audio-user] Ardour-0.99 compiled with vst support --" Normalize" function doesn't work

by Carlos Pino

Hi there. I compiled ardour-0.99 with vst (fst) support with this scons command: scons BUILD_SSE_OPTIMIZATIONS=1 USE_SSE_EVERYWHERE=0 VST=1 VSTPATH=/home/supertux/vst/fst-1.7 PREFIX=/usr KSI=no DEBUG=yes To do this I copied,before, the fst-1.7/fst.h and fst-1.7/vst/ to ardour-099/libs/ardour build directory and the SC* files from fst-1.7/ardour amd fst-1.7/gtk_ardour to ardour-0.99 and ardour-0.99/gtk_ardour build directorys Everything during the the compilation proccess went fine, no errors,scons install did his task succesfuly. After this ardour run ok,all the vst fx been recognized fine ,but the "normalize" function doesn't work. If the compilation is made without vst support ,"normalize" works fine. Any idea? Thanks in advance Saludos Cheers. -- Carlos.

Re: [linux-audio-user] Re: The best distro for music creation

Esben Stien: > The highest performance GPU available today with free software is > r280, as far as I know, but some success is close with the r300 > project. I think the the GPU performance is quite irrelevant for most linux audio users, although I have a feeling that the few of you who do care also yell very load about it. Whats important is sharpness and stable low-latency drivers, I think. How does r280 and r300 compete regarding those issues? --

[linux-audio-user] Re: OT: Accelerated 3D GFX cards with Free drivers (was

by Kjetil S. Matheussen

After working as a linux-audio sysadmin for 4 years, heres my experience with gfx-cards (my memory might be a bit unaccurate though): Matrox 400+500: Had four of those. All the machines were somewhat unstable for unknown reasons, also in windows. I'll probably never trust matrox again. I think the sharpness of those cards are overhyped, at least with long cables, its not as good as the gforce cards I have tried. Ati: Tried two the newer types 8xxx/9xxx. One of them have a picture that sometimes is a bit psychedelic, the other one caused crashes and had to be replaced (with a gforce card). Built-in intel graphics driver: Two of those, very old type. No problem, exept that it couldn't handle 1600x1200 resolution with at least 16bit colors. Very sharp pictures. Nvidia rio (or something): Had two of those. No problem with the open source drivers, but the pictures were quite blury. Nforce built-in gfx-card: Tried something like 4-5 of those. All works, but they need the binary-driver, and the picture is not sharp. Bad stuff. Nvidia gforce 2,3 and 4: Had something like 8 of them. All worked flawlessly with extremely sharp pictures. No problem with latency, because they work just fine with the open-source drivers. My next gfx card will probably be a gforce 4, if its still possible to buy it. Nvidia gforce fx: Tried one of those. In the beginning, the open source driver were horrible slow, so I had to use the binary driver. But that was fixed later, and now it works just fine with the open source driver. Very sharp picture, just like the other gforce cards. --

[linux-audio-user] Guitars

by Juan Marcelo Rodríguez

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello guys, Im a keyboardist, and Im working everyday composing and recording my songs using ardour as the center of my records. I have a Korg synth, and I haven't problems with the songs, I have enough patchs as I need to use: piano, strings, synths, etc's, because those sounds are great for me. The question is, that I need to record some riffs, or some *strong* chords with guitars and I cannot get a realistic and big sound for that. So, if you work with some kind of amp simulator, effects, vst, whatever, that let get those kind of guitars, tell me. I don't know what kind of music you listen to or you compose, but guitars like Stratovarius and Nightwish have, could be an exact example of what I need. If you think this topic is away from the idea of the list, contact me using my mail avoiding the list.

[linux-audio-user] Using open source audio software on an iBook 2gen (2001). What's the best solution?

by Cesare Marilungo

I mean, if I install a PPC gnu/Linux (I was thinking about Slackintosh because I really love Slackware) I'll be able to use all the hardware I can already use on my x86 box (expecially my Edirol UA-25)? Or it's better to compile the software I need (jack, ardour, zynaddsubfx) on MacOS X and buy a shiny new pc laptop when I'll have the money (It will take a long time :-) )? Does someone has experience with this? Thanks in advance, c. www.cesaremarilungo.com

> Heh, I think you misunderstand how free drivers work. You're caught > up in the Windows model. No, I'm not. In fact, I've never used Windows at home, ever. Not once. I started using Linux in 1996; prior to that, I didn't even have a home computer, living entirely on SunOS and various SYSV machines at work. > Free software drivers work like this: > > 1) Vendor provides a sample implementation or hardware documentation > to someone or some organization > 2) That individual (who usually has nothing to do with the > manufacturer!) produces a driver > 3) You communicate to the hardware vendor and they say "WTF, we didn't > write that dude...", AND THEY ARE RIGHT Except this is wrong in the Matrox case, since the drivers were written by Matrox. This is why Matrox got so popular in the first place -- they *wrote free drivers for Linux*. But along the way, after several years of maintaining them, they decided to no longer do so. In the meantime, the DRI project's one expert on Matrox bailed, who worked with the folks at Matrox on maintaining the drivers, also bailed, and they didn't find someone to replace him. This left Matrox in general, and 3D in Matrox in particular, without any support on either the corporate end or the volunteer end. But people still go around saying that Matrox cards have well-supported free drivers, including effective 3D drivers. It isn't so. -c
