That's a shame because Om is a really cool piece of software.
I'l have another look at Om. Distros are moving ahead using newer
libraries, and Om will probably build now on some of my later distros. I
was mainly wanting to try the drum machine that is a plugin for Om.
Apologies to the author. I've forgotten it's name.
Om is unsupported software, though. And the successor Ingen isn't ready
for public consumption yet (but things are moving).
You mean Smack by Loki Davison. It's not a plugin, but a collection of
patches. It had a control GUI, but it's broken since long.
Thats a shame about Smack. It sounded interesting, but never got a chance to
try the patches because of problems building Om.
I remember complaining about the dependencies for Om. It was created using the
latest, and greatest libraries on Mandriva, wasn't it?
I spent many hours trying to find the correct library versions for this thing
to build, and with little success. In the end I gave up.
