Re: [linux-audio-user] strange problems with snd

by Bill Schottstaedt

> Incidentally, now that it's working, is there a way to make the fonts bigger? There are too many ways to do this! I use either the ~/.Xdefaults file with lines like: snd*axisLabelFont: -adobe-times-medium-r-normal-*-18-*-*-*-*-*-*-* snd*helpTextFont: 9x15 or the init file (~/.snd) with similar stuff: (set! (axis-label-font) "-adobe-times-medium-r-normal-*-18-*-*-*-*-*-*-*") (set! (axis-numbers-font) "9x15"))) You can use the same init file with gtk (which has a different font naming convention) -- see grfsnd.html for details.

[linux-audio-user] Help! screenshots please.

by Steve Harris

Hi all, I'm trying to put together some content for the proceedings of the Modular 2002 conference, where I spoke about the state of Linux Audio, but I need decent screenshots for Muse, pd and Noteedit, none of which I know well enough. Ideally screenshots should be <= 1024x768 - 600x400 is ideal. Obviously anyone who provides shots gets mentioned in the acnowledgements. Slighit problem is that I need the shots ASAP, I need to submit the content in the next 2 hours. Cheers, Steve

Re: [linux-audio-user] strange problems with snd

by Bill Schottstaedt

I can't resist posting this hack, though I doubt it's actually useful. In response to the Snd font problem mentioned earlier, I wrote some xm-module-based code to show what fonts a given widget is trying to use: (define (show-font-name font) "(show-font-name font) shows the Snd-related name and the X-related name of each font \ in a widget's font list" (define (show-next-font context) (let ((next-font (XmFontListGetNextFont context))) (if (car next-font) (begin (if (XFontStruct? (caddr next-font)) (snd-print (format #f "~A: ~A~%" (cadr next-font) (XGetAtomName (XtDisplay (cadr (main-widgets))) (list 'Atom (cadr (XGetFontProperty (caddr next-font) XA_FULL_NAME)))))) (snd-print (format #f "no font found!~%"))) (show-next-font context))))) (let ((context (XmFontListInitFontContext font))) (show-next-font context) (XmFontListFreeFontContext context))) So, if it's the minibuffer that's giving trouble: (define (show-minibuffer-font) "(show-minibuffer-font) shows what fonts are associated with the minibuffer" (show-font-name (cadr (XtVaGetValues (list-ref (sound-widgets) 3) (list XmNfontList 0))))) If the font name looks ok, try C-z (in the new version), and send me a description of what you see.

[linux-audio-user] Unresolved symbols..

by Saurabh Nanda

Hi, I dloaded alsa 0.9.0rc3 I have a custom built 2.4.7-10 kernel My kernel sources reside at /usr/src/linux-2.4.7-10 and my kernel modules at /lib/modules/2.4.7-10custom I have a CMI8738 I used the following set of commands: ./configure --with-kernel=/usr/src/linux-2.4.7-10/ --with-moddir=/lib/modules/2.4.7-10custom/ --with-cards=cmipci --with-sequencer=yes and the regular make and make install. during make install a lot on unresolved dependancies show up. I am unable to insert the snd-cmipci module due to these unresolved dependancies. any clues to what could be the problem? One more question... will i be able to play sound from multiple sources (without using arts/esd) with the alsa drivers. Thanx, Nanda

Re: [linux-audio-user] strange problems with snd

by Bill Schottstaedt

On the Lesstif/Motif business, you can find out which library is loaded with ldd snd. There's a --with-motif-prefix configure switch if configure is finding Lesstif instead of Motif. I've also noticed the empty-box-where-glyph-should-be-bug even when all the correct fonts are loaded, but I was putting off looking into it -- there's always the hope that no-one else would notice... I'm told that someone is making a real effort to fix Lesstif, so maybe it will be usable someday soon.

> Btw, is Guile 1.6.0 now the recommended version for building Snd ? Yes; the CVS version (1.7) is also good.

by Patrick Shirkey

We are pleased to announce Quicktoot release number 8 ---------------------------------- Recording Audio from JACK-Enabled Applications in Ardour written by Tony Schiavone. http://www.boosthardware.com/LAU/quicktoots/ If you don't know how to do this you don't know JACK! Essential reading for anyone who wants to get multiple audio apps working in realtime with low latency in the Linux environment. JACK is the Jack Audio Connection Kit - the Linux answer to Core Audio. Ardour is a professional Digital Audio Workstation. MusE is a professional MIDI editor. You want to have these working together like Tux needs water. ----------------------------------- The purpose of the Quicktoots are to provide a community resource of informative guides for using Linux audio applications. The Quicktoots are the brainchild of Dave Phillips the man responsible for the most comprehensive webpage devoted to Linux audio applications. The Linux Sound and Midi page. Your one stop resource for Linux sound software. http://www.bright.net/~dlphilp/linuxsound/ If you are in the position to link to any of the quicktoots please link to the main page. That way we can keep more accurate statistics on the amount of people viewing the pages. If you are interested in contributing to the Quicktoots please let us know. All work must be submitted to either Dave or myself and we will give advice or make changes to ensure our publishing standard is met.

[linux-audio-user] A Newbie's New System?

by Scott Downie

Mark, > I also use an Audiophile 2496. That's 4 in - 4 out for about $150-$175. Two analog and two s/pdif. I could live with that. I do want S/PDIF for interfacing with my external decoder, the SB on my Windows machine, and my MiniDisc machine. Old-fashioned analog would be nice because I could connect directly to my old-fashioned analog mixer. But I don't see any Linux drivers for the 2496. If I could get away with AMD, I probably would. Otherwise, I'd consider plunking for a 1.8 GHz Celeron. Since my two main Windows computers are running ASUS boards, I certainly have nothing against ASUS. I just want to head off as many incompatibilities as I can up front. Thanks! Scott

[linux-audio-user] Motherboard recommendations?

by Paul Winkler

Hi all, Well, my old soyo mobo seems to have fried. I see tons of possibilities on the market, but hey, this is audio... we have weird needs and sometimes it's hard to tell from a spec sheet.. Can anybody recommend motherboards and/or chipsets that meet these criteria? - good for low-latency audio work, e.g. don't have nasty southbridge bugs (or at least have good kernel workarounds) - ATX form factor - will take a PIII 866 (coppermine, socket 370) - Dual CPU capability would be nice, that'll probably be my next upgrade - will take PC-133 memory, at least 512 MB - onboard IDE must work with CDDA (ripping) - no built-in video - no built-in audio, or at least it can be disabled or safely ignored - won't fry after a year and a half of routine use :( -- Paul Winkler "Welcome to Muppet Labs, where the future is made - today!"
