concerning gigedit:
I suppose you need libgig, perhaps liblscp and maybe the linuxsampler
installed. when I say you need that, I say, that especially with the libraries
you might need some kind of development headers. If you install the
linuxsampler package from source, it's easy.
then you must have a look which graphical toolkit is needed by gigedit. Get
that and the corresponding development packages. So does it use gnome (GTK),
QT, KDE-something or direct Xforms.
One thing about LS: Even I could get it to compile and got it working, with
sound and midi. Saying even: I don't have any GUI toolkits and only jack and
alsa installed. None of the other audio/midi drivers. I use LS via simple
telnet. I loaded some nice big and small free and commercial instruments in it
and played them happily. Even recorded them with another jack-audio-app.
I think on the linuxsampler website they mention the dependencies, the
succession in which to compile the packages, you can download at their place.
Only thing I noticed: Dont use make -j 2. just use:
make or gmake
If you decide to compile from cvs/svn then first do:
make -f Makefile.cvs
then continue with the usual.
All the best! Please give some feedback!
Kindest regards
Julien
