Has anyone bit the bullet and updated to FC5? I did a while back...
(the compelling reason was that I got a new laptop hard disk - 7200 RPM -
woohoo)
with livna, and 34 hours of painful yum fetching missing libs and compiling
random things later I almost have a laptop that can do audio again.
(I'm mostly happy with the FC5 release, save for the suppressed fury at the
maintainers for losing the "install everything" option, and at gnome for
continuing to dumb down the interface to the point of stupidity... but I
digress)
I've built a couple versions of the 2.6.16-RT kernel, 5,13,16, but it
freezes at the "loading linux" prompt.
The only semi-dubious thing I see on the build is:
SYSCALL arch/x86_64/ia32/vsyscall-sysenter.so
/usr/bin/ld: warning: i386:x86-64 architecture of input file
`arch/x86_64/ia32/vsyscall-sysenter.o' is incompatible with i386 output
SYSCALL arch/x86_64/ia32/vsyscall-syscall.so
/usr/bin/ld: warning: i386:x86-64 architecture of input file
`arch/x86_64/ia32/vsyscall-syscall.o' is incompatible with i386 output
I note that there seem to have been a few x86_64 bugs fixed in the
2.6.16.Xreleases, so I will try patching those in next....
I'm sore tempted to go back to 2.6.14-rtXX, but don't know what that will
break... with the update to the compiler, the OS, etc...
So has anyone got anywhere/had issues with FC5/gcc 4.1/x86_64/RT?
current .config attached (I started with full debugging on... now gradually
eliminating drivers) - up until this build I had HRT turned on.. compiling
now...

Hi
I just downloaded, patched and installed 2.6.16.5-rt14. Works fine, but
for the first time in my life have 'Midi Through' gotten client number
14, my evolutions keyboards are 24 and 28 (the 449C fails to show up).
Anyone experienced this? Solution? Need more info?

The recent conversations on this list couldn't have come at a better
time: next week I will take ownership of my new baby, a Roland VK8M.
Many of the editing features, such as Leslie speed and chorus/vibrato
settings, are hidden, and require that sysex strings be sent to the
device via MIDI. I will be needing an app to do this.
I read mention that sysexxer (?) is no longer maintained, so which app
should I use? In my Windows days, a MIDI sequencer could do this, so
I'm guessing that I might could use Rosegarden, but I haven't
confirmed this. Any suggestions?

I want to send a sysex dump to my Clavia Nord Stage, but I get some
strange messages: First "Data successfully sent", then "Some error
occured while writing to ". The Nord Stage hasn't received anything.
I use the latest CVS version 0.8 of Sysexxer. The MIDI connections are
set through ALSA. Sending sysex from the Nord Stage to Sysexxer works
perfectly.
According to the manual the Nord Stage is able to receive sysex data at
any time. There is no special mode or special setting to configure the
way it receives the data.

ha ha ha! was wating for someone to mention that. I'm new to the activity of calling a phone number and idleing :). I'll turn it off, though I feel a small bit of satisfaction knowing I can broadcast any music regardless of copyright. Perhaps we can make a LAU playlist for the hold music? Send mp3/ogg files to me personally.

Hi there !
I don't know if asking that kind of question here is a good thing, but I try !
I am working on a little software for a work in my university. Its way
of working is very simple : It gets MIDI events from a (virtual) port,
modify them, and then send MIDI events to a (virtual) MIDI port.
Typically, it looks like this :
Instrument MIDI Output ---> My software ---> Input Soft Synth
My problem is about opening those virtuals MIDI ports. I know how to do
that with the ALSA API, but I would like to get that job done in Java.
In fact, I wanna code my whole sofware in Java.
I read somewhere
(http://jsresources.sourceforge.net/faq_midi.html#connect_midi) that
the native apps MIDI ports of the ALSA system where reachable in the
Java 5 Sound API (as MidiDevice) when the virmidi module is loaded.
Well, I loaded it, listed every MidiDevice availables on the Java
System with a little piece of Java code, but I can't see, for example,
the vkeybd Output port or the FluidSynth Input port !
Could someone help me ? :'(
Cheers,
AD
Hi !
I am sorry, I am asking a lot of questions on these lists, but please
believe me, I try to search by myself before posting !
Well, my problem is very simple : my Edirol UA-25 does not want to work
on my Linux DeMuDi testing...
First thing : my UA-25 is not detected at boot time. So, I load the
snd-usb-audio module. Fine, now my card appears in the ALSA system.
The MIDI ports work fine. No problem on that point.
Now, when I try to launch Jack on my UA-25, it does not work at all :
ALSA: cannot set hardware parameters for playback
ALSA: cannot configure playback channel
cannot load driver module alsa
I tried to launch XMMS with the ALSA output driver, and it does not
work better.
I have done all the things that are written on the ALSA website for the
support of the UA-25 with snd-usb-audio driver : creation of the
/etc/modutils/alsa file and of the .asoundrc file, and I have run
update-modules. The /etc/modules.conf file has been modified by the
script, so it's ok.
The problem seems to come from my ALSA configuration. I have tried
alsaconf, but it only detects my integrated ESS Maestro3.
And my hardware configuration is ok, because when I try the DeMuDi live
CD, everything works for my UA-25 !
Grrr, I am getting crazy with all my audio problems !
Please..........

I'm a fan of the dir2ogg script in Debian for converting a directory of many other codecs to ogg/vorbis and keeping metadata. Also, if you would like to go the other way around I modified the mp32ogg script to do ogg->mp3 and renamed it "ipod hammer" since I changed it quite a lot. This is useful for example if you have a large collection of riped music in ogg/vorbis format and would like to share it with someone who only has an ipod. It's lossy, so sound quality is effected. It is obviously a band-aid until Apple gets their head out of their ass and listens to their customers who want a real open source codec.
Download it here. Email me any issues. I'll be making a Debian package sometime soon.

I'm in the process of replacing my hardware mixer with a MIDI fader box, a M-audio 1010-LT and QAmix. I have a functional template file for this card that works with QAmix. It currently has MIDI maped to the analog playback 1 and 2 to CC 7. If you're interested, download the template here. Hack it if you like.
