Hi, I'm trying audacity 1.1.1 on mandrake 9.1 with multimedia kernel and if I
try to change my output device on the preferences menu it just quits and
prints a Segmentation fault on the terminal.
I think this version is unstable, which should I get?
Thanks,
Loauc.

Okay, I know everyone has been itching for a really bad song, written in
ten minutes, and recorded in less than twenty, about the new kernel, so
here it is:
http://groundstate.ca/twopointsix.ogg
Of course this was done wholly with free software:
Mandrake cooker
kernel 2.6-test9 courtesy of Olivier Blin
audacity 1.2.0pre3
a crappy intel sound card
an expensive condenser mic
a roland Sound Canvas MIDI module and an Evolution controller
Now if only I could get my Quattro working and learn to play keys a bit
better, I would wet my pants...

Hello list!
I'm having some trouble with burning CD's and having trouble finding sources
of info - I don't know if I'm just not looking very hard or well, or if I'm
really getting stuck
basically, right now on my system, they end up being coasters about 90% of
the time - I've been trying both cdrecord and xcdroast and both either do
the burn (i've tried burning iso files for backups and also doing audio cds)
or they'll have some sort of error, fixate, and eject the disk early in the
process
I assume this is an issue with the hardware, I guess - I have an artec 52x
burner
other than this I don't have all that much info at my fingertips (I'm at the
wrong computer) - but I'm trying to find stuff to start reading, checking,
etc...
any ideas would be appreciated! thanks!

My mistake - the second one I'm talking about here is xdm, not gdm.
gdm is the display/login manager that comes with GNOME - it asks you
for your username, then the password box comes up after that.
Still, this bug only affects users of kdm, it seems. You're probably
running kdm if you've installed a KDE desktop as the default. It
still happens even if you are running a desktop other than KDE, eg
Blackbox, if you've logged in via kdm. It affects machines with both
standard and multimedia kernels.
To recap, Austin's fix for the skipping Audacity cursor is:
Adjust the -n level from -10 to 0 in the file /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers so
the last line looks like this:
:0 local /bin/nice -n 0 /usr/X11R6/bin/X -deferglyphs 16
If someone could add this to the Audacity FAQ, I'd appreciate it.
Cheers
Daniel
forwarded from the Pho list... this guy is offering free (as in beer ;)
colocation, internationally, for anyone running not-for-profit /
community / open source servers... all you need to do is fill in the
form at http://www.communitycolo.net/ to request colocation..
they have a very interesting list of projects - Buddhist internet radio
is one that i'm going to be checking out!... i think it could well be
very useful for those of us needing hosting for software development
projects etc.

I founded and run the California Community Colocation Project, a 501(c)(3)
non-profit. We provide free, donation-based Internet services to
individuals, non-profits, and Open Source projects. We've been operating for
two years now and currently have over 120 not-for-profit servers colocated
with us in Fremont, CA and Seattle, WA.
We're expanding to Washington, DC shortly to best serve the East Coast. So
we're looking for East Coasters who might be connected with organizations
that could make good use of our services out there. The faster we can
assemble a roster of qualified (non-commercial) clients, the faster we can
set it up and start serving the not-for-profit communities out there.
So please feel free to forward along this message as appropriate and have
people email me at david(a)weekly.org if they're interested.
Thanks,

Just genius!!!
But since my mother language is not English there are some parts I can't quite
undertand... could you post the lyrics?
Hey all,
Noticed the Phase88 in the new Musician's Friend catalog - very,
very attractive price for such a loaded interface. I have two
questions:
1) Is it supported under ALSA? I've done a bit of research and it's
difficult to find anything on the Phase88. It looks almost exactly like
the EWS88 MT, straight down to the layout of the breakout A/D conversion
box. In fact, a post on RAP hints that it might just be a rebranding:
http://groups.google.com/groups?q=terratec+phase+88+group:rec.audio.pro&hl=…
2) Does it sound decent? I'm currently using an M-Audio Delta44 and
dying to get more channels. This is much cheaper than a Delta1010. If
I had the cash now to drop on a 1010, I'd do it, since I know the
M-Audio stuff rocks. I've been unable to find any reviews online, web
or Usenet.
Thanks!

Hello all:
I am looking for advice on using a Shure sm57 microphone directly into the mic
input of a Creative sbawe64 gold soundcard. I am using an impedance matching
XLR to 1/8" adapter and I have raised the "capture" level in the mixer.
To record anything (say using arecord) I have to crank up the mic-in level to
full and the result is that I get a lot of hiss and the signal is still
pretty quiet.
Do I need an external preamplifier to use the sm57? If so where can I go to
find one or schematics to build one?
Or is there a simpler way?
Thank you for any suggestions,
Paul
