For me it's not the fact that someone had to look up the error code and post it to the list, it's the fact that it happened with my kernel despite doing all the documented things to prevent it from happening. I built 2.6.15 last night. I'll try installing it tonight and see if that helps. I'm not holding my breath. -lee

[linux-audio-user] Re: Companies Refusing to Release/Permit Linux Drivers

by Juhana Sadeharju

As long as MS Windows is the only preinstalled OS in purchased computers, Linux is a major loser. The purchased computer may even cost the same or more (more likely) if you don't want the MS Windows. Think about the world in which Linux is the only preinstalled OS in the purchased computers: how many domestic users would spend additional $$$ for MS Windows? I don't understand PC sellers because Linux is free. I'm sure in the above situation very soon people would demand more software to Linux so that people would not have to put $$$ extra to additional OS. I'm toying with the idea that when a computer is tax-deductible, the goverment pays with respect to lowest priced OS. Similarly with all kind of taxpayer funded grants/awards: grant would include only the lowest priced OS. And not only OS, any software would be treated the similar way: GIMP instead of Photoshop, Blender instead of Maya or Max, Ardour instead of Protools. When people do not get grants for $$$$ software, they are more willing to use the lowest priced alternative. We should educate politicians and grant givers about the lowest priced alternatives.

[linux-audio-user] Quiet PC Components?

by aljordan＠maine.rr.com

Hello, I have been playing with DRC and Brutefir for room correction and digital crossover capabilities. The results have been positive and now would like to quiet down one of my PC's in order to keep it in my stereo system. I am looking for a particularly quiet case, CPU fan (for Athlon 64), and a video card that does not need a fan (hopefully NVidia based or something that is easy to configure in Linux). I can't afford the expensive fanless PC cases (heat pipe style). For those who have tried to silence their PC, any information on the component brands and model numbers that you have had success with would be much appreciated. Thank you, Alan

[linux-audio-user] Re: Carlos Pino Track

by Sean Edwards

Carlos, In a previous post you mentioned ardour, hydrogen, muse, zynaddsubfx, seq24, and qsynth. Did you use those applications to create your tracks? Did you consider using LMMS? Other than personal preference, what lead you to choose those audio apps over the others avaiable? --- Carlos Pino <pinojazz(a)gmail.com> wrote: > Sean Edwards wrote: > > >Carlos Pino posted this link in another mail list, > but > >since he used a V-Amp 2 on the guitar, I thought it > >appropriate to post here: > > > >http://www.telefonica.net/web2/pinojazz/after_the_pain.ogg > > > >It is my understanding that the guitar was > recorded, > >everything else was computer generated. > > > >My only word is amazing! > > > > > Glad you like,Sean :-) > > Cheers > --Carlos. > __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

[linux-audio-user] Hydrogen - Blues Box drum patterns

by Hans

Hello everyone, Every now and then a thread shows up on this list discussing a drum pattern library, especially for non-drummers. Being one myself I have collected and devised a load of drum patterns for myself to jam with. I like to share this with you, so ta-ta, ta-ta, ta-ta...... Blues Box!!! You can find it here.... http://hit.tweakdsl.nl/hikikomori/blues_box.h2song Load them in Hydrogen, string some patterns together and start jamming. If you enjoy these patterns, pass them on. If you feel they need improvement, then do improve them without much ado and send them back to me. Some facts: - made with Hydrogen 0.9.2 - written with the standard GM kit loaded - some velocity changes made, but otherwise no humanization - the patterns are standard blues/rock ones, collected from various book, the internet and devised by myself Now, can someone help me to a collection of jazz drum patterns, please? Cheers, Hans

[linux-audio-user] Griffin iMic

by Kenneth Dombrowski

Hi there, I see there are a few people here who have a Griffin iMic, and are using it successfully. I bought one a few months ago, and have tried several distros & kernel versions, but have never been able to get it to work Current machine is running latest Ubuntu, with kernel 2.6.12-10-386, alsa-utils version 1.0.9a-4ubuntu5. uhci_hcd recognizes the card & snd_usb_audio is automatically loaded. If I open the Gnome Sound Recorder, I can select the device "iMic USB Audio System (Alsa Mixer)" under Run Mixer->File->Change Device, turn up the volume, and hit "Record", but the resulting file is silent I've also tried "arecord -Dplughw:0,1 -f cd -t wav test.wav" & audacity using /dev/dsp1 as the recording device, again, the files are silent I have verified that there is sound going into the iMic, & just to be sure, tried both jacks/switch positions on the iMic itself. I'm beginning to think the thing is a dud, but am hoping someone can point out something I am doing wrong Oh, I have never been able to get sound from the builtin mic jack either.. the audio controller is Intel Corp. 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 03) Thanks!

[linux-audio-user] Re: Digital Fidelity

by Maluvia

David, you had me all the way up to this point: >And argue with people like Paul Davis on *this very subject* is bound >to failure, if not rude. I'm sorry, but I just can't go along with this concept that some people are off limits to argument, debate, disagreement, criticism or questioning. Perhaps there's some male heirarchical conditioning behind such a notion, but I can't accept it. If it was not 'rude' or 'disrespectful' to argue with or insult me, then it is not rude to argue with Paul, or anyone else on this list. As far as I am concerned, every single person on this list is an intelligent, accomplished person in their own right, in their own fields of endeavor, and deserving of equal respect - and equal scrutiny. I also think everyone here is making useful contributions in their own way to this community. It has not escaped my notice that certain individuals in this community are talked to, and about, with what borders almost on reverence and awe (sounding religious again ;) ) - and it makes me squirrelly, and rather embarassed. However much I may admire and respect someone, I cannot put them up on a pedestal - it's just not in my nature. I have had occasion in my life to interact with people who are considered powerful and famous or highly accomplished and influential in their fields, and I haven't felt toward or treated them any differently than I do anyone else. (And it has been my feeling that they have preferred it that way.) There are many people whom I do not respect, but that has to do with their character and conduct - not their rank or station in life, or level of achievement in their respective field. I am not a respector of class or station or worldly accomplishment - I respect people for what they are inside and how they treat others. If part of the community consensus here is that certain people are above others - for whatever reason - and that they are beyond questioning, I can no more fit in here than I did in academia. I hope that that is not really the case. [Sorry for the rant, but that definitely pushed one of my buttons.] >Anyway, I wish you to keep having a good time making or listening to >music, through whatever device pleases you the most. Well thank you very much - I will, and best wishes to you as well. :) ( And I respect your poise and graciousness in this awkward discussion.) - Maluvia
