Hi
I decided it's time to try linuxsampler. I'd like to use it inside
renoise, so I thought linux native vst is the way to go. Anyways I'm on
arch and installed linuxsampler with pacman. It seems to at least load
ok through jsampler. But I was expecting something linuxsampler related
to show up in renoise, but this doesn't happen.
What am I missing?

Have you any other native VSTs showing up in Renoise? You need to set
the VST_PATH environment variable to point to the location of your vst
plugins directory (I usually create $HOME/vst_plugins and put the .so
files in there, but you will need to find where linux sampler installed
itself to) and then when you start renoise you need to go to
Edit->Preferences->Plug/Misc and check the "Enable VST plugins
(configure via 'VST_PATH')" option.

Yes, they reside in ~/.vst, that seems to be the default place renoise
looks even if $VST_PATH is empty (which mine was).

Ok I tried putting the path of the plugin into VST_PATH:
atte@vestbjerg:~$ locate linuxsampler | grep so$
/usr/lib/linuxsampler/liblinuxsampler.so
/usr/lib/lv2/linuxsampler.lv2/linuxsampler.so
atte@vestbjerg:~/.vst$ export VST_PATH=/usr/lib/linuxsampler/
atte@vestbjerg:~/.vst$ echo $VST_PATH
/usr/lib/linuxsampler/
Still nothing linuxsampler related in renoise.

That was checked alreade. I also tried both symlinking and copying
/usr/lib/linuxsampler/liblinuxsampler.so into ~/.vst but that didn't
work either...
What to do?
NB: Found this (1 year old) that suggests it at least wasn't possible at
that time:

Ok, I haven't a lot of experience with trying to run linuxsampler as a
VST, it may be that it just doesn't work. I just thought it might be
that you didn't have it installed in the right place and / or renoise
configured correctly, as it is not immediately apparent how to configure
renoise for VSTs if you haven't done it previously.
I'm doing some work on linuxVSTs and I'm running renoise at the moment,
so if I get some time I'll investigate running linuxsampler and see what
happens (unless someone else can provide the answer first? )

That sounds like a really good suggestion!
However further investigation leads me to believe that neither the vst
nor the dssi plugins came with my binary linuxsampler installation.

I tried both from cvs and the tarballs downloaded from linuxsampler.org.
Both are with the correct libgig installed first, and bot complain:

Atte,
I just switched to Arch and had no problems building linuxsampler and libgig
from Aur. This seems to install the dssi, though I haven't tested it. See:
[archloop@revolution ~]$ pacman -Qo /usr/lib/dssi/linuxsampler.so
/usr/lib/dssi/linuxsampler.so is owned by
linuxsampler-cvs 20110301-1

Hello Atte,
The DSSI LS plug-in is a separate, independent project:
http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/ls16
