Hi Levi:
I just built Swami 0.9.0 without hitting the snag you got, so I'm no
help there. I did find that Swami doesn't seem to be friendly towards
ALSA 0.9.0rc6, I had to accept AUTO for the audio driver and OSS &
/dev/midi00 for MIDI input. It didn't like /dev/snd/midiC0D0 or
/dev/snd/pcmC0D0p at all. With the AUTO and OSS settings it works like a
charm. Not that that's a fat lot of help for you... :(
Btw, are you trying to build 0.9.0 or the pre1 version of Swami ?
Best regards,

Using Swami (nee Smurf) is quite intuitive, so
I'd say one good way to
begin is by loading a favorite font into Swami and investigating how it
(the font) gets to sound like it does. Check out its basic voice
parameters, then take a look at any keyboard mapping that may be used.
Try turning things on & off to discover what the various functions
actually do. Revise a favorite font, then save it and try loading it
into FluidSynth (nee iiwusynth). Take notes of your progress: editing
and creating your own sounds is a learning process, so you'll want to
start noting where changes in a font yield dramatic effect or where
nothing at all seems to happen (though that "nothing" may come into play
during performance, i.e., a parameter might only be effective after a
certain velocity or key range).
Thanks David.
I downloaded Swami, and tried to build it, but got some errors (it looks like
an object file is not being linked). I sent a message about this to the
swami-devel list but have not recieved anything back. Here is a brief
snippet of make output:

Any ideas?
