>I use it with rezound
I never said ext3 was slow :)
Both are fast, and your results may vary depending on what kernel and subsequent patches you have. Speeds for ext3 can vary depending on what mode (writeback, ordered, or journaled) you are using. Even though ext3 is very fast, reiserfs generally has better throughput and latency timings in my experience, which I personally find to be much more important than raw read/write times when working with audio.

I have a midiman uno usb device. I am not sure if I am using it
correctly or not. I compiled and installed ezusb2131 and usb-midi (not
realizing usb-midi is in the kernel) I load the ezusb2131 with:
modprobe ezusb2131 vendor_id=0x763 product_id=0x110
I then cat the firmware into the device.
I then load usb-midi. This is how I do it manually when hotplug does
not work correctly.
dmesg list that I have a /dev/midi02 now.
My first question is if I am setting up the above correctly?
My second question is how do I use it besides with muse, csound, and pd?
Muse does not detect the device. I have to add a new raw midi device in
the midi configuration of muse. That is ok but should it be detected.
I can't get it to work with other sequencers at all because most of them
don't allow you to add raw midi devices. Now csounds and pd will listen
to a raw midi device.
The way I have been using it is through muse. Then I set up any other
synth in muse.
Thanks,

Running alsaconf version 0.9.0 under Red Hat 9.0 with the Planet CCRMA
kernel and ALSA setup...
In running alsaconf to try to configure ALSA for my system's sound card
(reported as an "ens1371 Ensoniq 5880 AudioPCI (rev 03)"), I get the
following errors:
/usr/sbin/alsaconf: line 340: let: a=(>>2) & 0x3f: syntax error: operand
expected (error token is ">>2) & 0x3f")
/usr/sbin/alsaconf: line 341: let: b=(( & 0x03) << 3) | (( >> 13) &
0x07): syntax error: operand expected (error token is "& 0x03) << 3) |
(( >> 13) & 0x07)")
/usr/sbin/alsaconf: line 342: let: c=(>> 8) & 0x1f: syntax error:
operand expected (error token is ">> 8) & 0x1f")
/usr/sbin/alsaconf: line 349: let: v=((>>8)&0xff)|((&0xff)<<8): syntax
error: operand expected (error token is ">>8)&0xff)|((&0xff)<<8)")
These come from the following function:
# convert ISA PnP id number to string 'ABC'
convert_isapnp_id () {
let a='('$1'>>2) & 0x3f'
let b='(('$1' & 0x03) << 3) | (('$1' >> 13) & 0x07)'
let c='('$1'>> 8) & 0x1f'
strs='@ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ'
echo ${strs:$a:1}${strs:$b:1}${strs:$c:1}
}
which is only called here:
# list isapnp cards
while read driver cardvendor carddevice data vendor func; do
if expr $driver : 'snd-.*' >/dev/null ; then
if [ "$last_driver" != "$driver" ]; then
echo $driver.o
last_driver=$driver
fi
id1=`convert_isapnp_id $cardvendor`
dev1=`swap_number $carddevice`
id2=`convert_isapnp_id $vendor`
dev2=`swap_number $func`
echo "ISAPNP: $id1$dev1=$id2$dev2"
fi
done < $MODDIR/modules.isapnpmap >> $1
}
This suggests that there's some problem with the "cardvendor" value...
but here I fall off the edge of my knowledge.
Does this look familiar, and is there a way to fix it?
off topic but hilarious - the SCO 419 scam....

DEAR SIR/MADAM:
I AM MR. DARL MCBRIDE CURRENTLY SERVING AS THE PRESIDENT AND CHIEF
EXECUTIVE OFFICER OF THE SCO GROUP, FORMERLY KNOWN AS CALDERA SYSTEMS
INTERNATIONAL, IN LINDON, UTAH, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. I KNOW THIS
LETTER MIGHT SURPRISE YOUR BECAUSE WE HAVE HAD NO PREVIOUS
COMMUNICATIONS OR BUSINESS DEALINGS BEFORE NOW.
MY ASSOCIATES HAVE RECENTLY MADE CLAIM TO COMPUTER SOFTWARES WORTH AN
ESTIMATED $1 BILLION U.S. DOLLARS. I AM WRITING TO YOU IN CONFIDENCE
BECAUSE WE URGENTLY REQUIRE YOUR ASSISTANCE TO OBTAIN THESE FUNDS.
IN THE EARLY 1970S THE AMERICAN TELEPHONE AND TELEGRAPH CORPORATION
DEVELOPED AT GREAT EXPENSE THE COMPUTER OPERATING SYSTEM SOFTWARE KNOWN
AS UNIX. UNFORTUNATELY THE LAWS OF MY COUNTRY PROHIBITED THEM FROM
SELLING THESE SOFTWARES AND SO THEIR VALUABLE SOURCE CODES REMAINED
PRIVATELY HELD. UNDER A SPECIAL ARRANGMENT SOME PROGRAMMERS FROM THE
CALIFORNIA UNIVERSITY OF BERKELEY DID ADD MORE CODES TO THIS OPERATING
SYSTEM, INCREASING ITS VALUE, BUT NOT IN ANY WAY TO DILUTE OR DISPARAGE
OUR FULL AND RIGHTFUL OWNERSHIP OF THESE CODES, DESPITE ANY AGREEMENT
BETWEEN AMERICAN TELEPHONE AND TELEGRAPH AND THE CALIFORNIA UNIVERSITY
OF BERKELEY, WHICH AGREEMENT WE DENY AND DISAVOW.
IN THE YEAR 1984 A CHANGE OF REGIME IN MY COUNTRY ALLOWED THE AMERICAN
TELEPHONE AND TELEGRAPH CORPORATION TO MAKE PROFITS FROM THESE
SOFTWARES. IN THE YEAR 1990 OWNERSHIP OF THESE SOFTWARES WAS TRANSFERRED
TO THE CORPORATION UNIX SYSTEM LABORATORIES. IN THE YEAR 1993 THIS
CORPORATION WAS SOLD TO THE CORPORATION NOVELL. IN THE YEAR 1994 SOME
EMPLOYEES OF NOVELL FORMED THE CORPORATION CALDERA SYSTEMS
INTERNATIONAL, WHICH BEGAN TO DISTRIBUTE AN UPSTART OPERATING SYSTEM
KNOWN AS LINUX. IN THE YEAR 1995 NOVELL SOLD THE UNIX SOFTWARE CODES TO
SCO. IN THE YEAR 2001 OCCURRED A SEPARATION OF SCO, AND THE SCO BRAND
NAME AND UNIX CODES WERE ACQUIRED BY THE CALDERA SYSTEMS INTERNATIONAL,
AND IN THE FOLLOWING YEAR THE CALDERA SYSTEMS INTERNATIONAL WAS RENAMED
SCO GROUP, OF WHICH I CURRENTLY SERVE AS CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER.
MY ASSOCIATES AND I OF THE SCO GROUP ARE THEREFORE THE FULL AND RIGHTFUL
OWNERS OF THE OPERATING SYSTEM SOFTWARES KNOWN AS UNIX. OUR ENGINEERS
HAVE DISCOVERED THAT NO FEWER THAN SEVENTY (70) LINES OF OUR VALUABLE
AND PROPRIETARY SOURCE CODES HAVE APPEARED IN THE UPSTART OPERATING
SYSTEM LINUX. AS YOU CAN PLAINLY SEE, THIS GIVES US A CLAIM ON THE
MILLIONS OF LINES OF VALUABLE SOFTWARE CODES WHICH COMPRISE THIS LINUX
AND WHICH HAS BEEN SOLD AT GREAT PROFIT TO VERY MANY BUSINESS
ENTERPRISES. OUR LEGAL EXPERTS HAVE ADVISED US THAT OUR CONTRIBUTION TO
THESE CODES IS WORTH AN ESTIMATED ONE (1) BILLION U.S. DOLLARS.
UNFORTUNATELY WE ARE HAVING DIFFICULTY EXTRACTING OUR FUNDS FROM THESE
COMPUTER SOFTWARES. TO THIS EFFECT I HAVE BEEN GIVEN THE MANDATE BY MY
COLLEAGUES TO CONTACT YOU AND ASK FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE. WE ARE PREPARED
TO SELL YOU A SHARE IN THIS ENTERPRISE, WHICH WILL SOON BE VERY
PROFITABLE, THAT WILL GRANT YOU THE RIGHTS TO USE THESE VAULABLE
SOFTWARES IN YOUR BUSINESS ENTERPRISE. UNFORTUNATELY WE ARE NOT ABLE AT
THIS TIME TO SET A PRICE ON THESE RIGHTS. THEREFORE IT IS OUR RESPECTFUL
SUGGESTION, THAT YOU MAY BE IMMEDIATELY A PARTY TO THIS ENTERPRISE,
BEFORE OTHERS ACCEPT THESE LUCRATIVE TERMS, THAT YOU SEND US THE NUMBER
OF A BANKING ACCOUNT WHERE WE CAN WITHDRAW FUNDS OF A SUITABLE AMOUNT TO
GUARANTEE YOUR PARTICIPATION IN THIS ENTERPRISE. AS AN ALTERNATIVE YOU
MAY SEND US THE NUMBER AND EXPIRATION DATE OF YOUR MAJOR CREDIT CARD, OR
YOU MAY SEND TO US A SIGNED CHECK FROM YOUR BANKING ACCOUNT PAYABLE TO
"SCO GROUP" AND WITH THE AMOUNT LEFT BLANK FOR US TO CONVENIENTLY SUPPLY.
KINDLY TREAT THIS REQUEST AS VERY IMPORTANT AND STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL. I
HONESTLY ASSURE YOU THAT THIS TRANSACTION IS 100% LEGAL AND RISK-FREE.

Version 2.3.0 of the GPLed musical score editor NoteEdit is available:
http://rnvs.informatik.tu-chemnitz.de/~jan/noteedit/noteedit.html
New features:
- score layout : braces (piano staffs), brackets (staff groups),
continued/discontinued bar rules.
Note! NoteEdit does its best to export the score layout. But
depending on your typesetting system the score layout possibly
changes (see below)
- Hungarian GUI translation (thanks to Peter Breuer <comp(a)suselinux.hu>)
- end bar
- multi repeats
Note! The multi repeat influences the replay but the signature
is only exported to MUP. (Perhaps some gurus can sometimes
explain to me how to export this into to different typesetting
systems).
- UTF8 text coding in "*.not" files. This sould enable correct restore
of Russian (Cyrillic), Greek, Hebrew, ... texts.
Note! It does not mean it exports Russian, (Cyrillic), Greek,
Hebrew, ... texts to MusiXTeX, LilyPond, ABC music, ...! I'm afraid
I'd need a native language speaker with some C++ programming
knowledge to solve this.
Note further! This implies a small version incompatibility if
you wrote lyrices and titles containing non-ascii characters :-(
Please correct them on NoteEDit score and store them again.
Note futher! I'm not quite sure whether this disturbs the
KDE-2.x/Qt-2.x compatibility.
- the # --> B / B --> # tool influences only the selected part (if any)
this is especially usful after Midi import if the score
has some B and some # parts.
- bugs fixed, among them:
+ correct replay of dal segno al coda
+ correct MusiXTeX export of ending repeat close symbol
+ cleanup rests works (again)
Problems exporting score layout
===============================
MusiXTeX actually accepts either completely continued or completely
discontinued bar rules. If you specify a mix of partial
continued and partial discontinued bar rules NoteEdit
produces some statements of the musixdbr.tex package
by Rainer Dunker. NoteEdit produces a warning and gives
advice to install this package. Otherwise MusiXTeX will fail.
PMX is a preprocessor to MusiXTeX and therefore the same problems apply.
ABC music cannot deal with nested braces in brackets. NoteEdit will warn you.
LilyPond can deal with braces and brackets. It changes the staff
rules according to some LilyPond inherent rules. I was
told it is possible to break these rules. But I assume
they are there for good reasons. NoteEdit will warn you
if a LilyPond rule will change the staff rule policy.
MUP has no limitations.

Hi!
First ... thanks to Guy Daniel Clotilde for their efforts in this project.
I'm pleased to announce the new gmorgan webpage:
http://perso.wanadoo.fr/guy.clotilde/GMORGAN/index.html
Also i want to announce the version 0.10, the last alpha release, i complete
the initial idea, even adding some features not included in the initial
project.
News in 0.10
-------------------
Skin engine with some examples.
New Patterns. (First time i spend some time to do it .. and are not to bad).
Changes in initial look, help window, settings ...
Minor bugs solved.
In this momment this version is only availabel in :
http://personal.telefonica.terra.es/web/soudfontcombi/http://www.telefonica.net/web/soudfontcombi/
Now for me is time to think if i expand the capabilities of gmorgan, if i
spend my time in other project or if i go to the beach for the first time
this year ... and is 50m in front my house :-)
Anyway if i release new patterns or skins i will announce in the hlsu mailing
list.
Thanks to all, and sorry ...

ReiserFS is very fast filesystem, but there's alot more to it than just what file system you're using. You may want to consider several things: 1) what is your hdparm set to? 2) Do you have the proper support for your chipset compiled into the kernel? Just because it works doesn't mean it's set up properly. 3) Is it a brand new type of controller? The drivers for it may still be a work in progress and they may not currently function the greatest. (SATA controllers on Nvidia chipsets for instance) 4) There are other factors to consider in disk speed than RPM, for example what size cache does it have and what is it's seek time? 5) What other processes are running and what kind of load are they putting on your hard drive.
I'm babysitting the mailing lists while Joern is on vacation
until September. I've started getting a lot of "mailbox quota
exceeded" bounces for a r_bryan_kanemyrealbox.com.
Is there an established policy on what to do here?
Should I unsubscribe that address, or just put up with the
flood of bounce messages?
