I got Red Hat 8.0 on my toshiba 4300 laptop (ymfpci
sound card).
I followed all the planet ccrma install advices and ended with 'apt-get
install muse'. But just after launch muse core-dumps. If I run 'muse
some_song.mid' in a terminal I just can see the window with all the
midi parts and then it disappears. It writes 'segmentation fault'.
With my ymfpci card, I was able to play midifiles with playmidi (with
Mandrake 9.0) . Everythings seems fine except midi sequencers. I
wasn't able to run no midi sequencers either with Mandrake 9, that's
why I tried Red Hat.
I believe muse works perfectly good on other machines with red hat and
planet ccrma. Everyone says that it works flawlessly, but mine
doesn't:((
Anyone has a clue to why muse can't run ?
Hard to say why (obviously it works for me...). You could try running
muse from gdb and seeing where it segfaults. Or running "strace muse" to
see what system calls it was trying to do before dying. Maybe there is a
dependency that is not explicitly discovered by the build process and is
causing the segfault.
I would also try to get rid of any configuration files you may have
around: remove (or move somewhere else) both ~/.musePrj and ~/.MusE
