Hi Matthew,
(I think?) we're both using YDL. Just reading Michal's list of working
apps. Ecasound compiles on my YDL.
Sweep compiles and loads snd files but crashes when I try to 'play'. Ladspa
works fine. Someone from the sweep list said something like 'sound on Macs
are very difficult' (It's more likely YDL!)
Ardour,GDAM,Audacity won't compile -nada! Still,it's close but no cigar...
'snd' works like a dream. :-)
Ceres,Ceres3,Sono,bio and Mammut work perfectly once compiled with
'--with-gnome-libaudiofile'. Does anyone know where I can download the source
for Ceres2,the binaries won't work on my system?
Alas,NoTAM's Mix compiles but plays all snd files at half speed.
I still have to use the Mac's Logic Audio for multitrack :-(
Oh,and Rosegarden is OK!

FWIW, up to 2 days ago I was a happy debian-ppc user
(iMac G3 350Mhz,
RIP), making quite a bit of noise.
here's what I had running:
pd - AFAIK all externs were working on PPC, some needed some tweaking.
iiwu - the latest version works (prior to that there were some endianess
issues) snd
csound - for some reason it would not render to .wav properly. aif was
working fine though. GDAM
soundtracker
LegaSynth
ecasound (stable and unstable up to the CVS version)
sweep - especially lately it was a delight
jack (cvs, the tarball on the jackit site worked, too but I think it hasn't
been updated in a while) ardour
MuSE - but without the soft synths. The simply didn't work for some reason
but I could aconnect the standalone iiwusynth with MuSE for that. I
haven't tried the audio in MuSE, all I neede was a MIDI sequencer.
Basically, most apps that I wanted to run or just try would compile
[almost] out of the box. Besides the usual endianess problems, it was a
pleasant environment.
PS. I was the orginal poster about the ATA HD. Just to clarify, I simply
wanted to recycle the drive but, for now, I'm on a PC linux box. On a PPC
machine, mol is a great solution for "sharing" disks. I would start mol,
ftp to my linux side grab/put what I needed etc. I don't really need to
use the HFS+ side. Only the linux fs. I kept the MacOS mainly for
Argeiphontes Lyre and SoundHack which I used occasionaly...
hopefully I'll go back to PPC in the future.
