Hi All, I have been pulling my hair out trying to compile timidity... I configure thusly... ./configure --enable-audio-oss --enable-interface=gtk --enable-audio=alsa --enable-server --enable-alsaseq When I 'make' I get the following error. make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/MUSIC/TiMidity++-2.9.5/timidity' gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I.. -I.. -I../libarc -I../libunimod -I../interface -I../utils -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/include/gtk-1.2 -I/usr/include/glib-1.2 -I/usr/lib/glib/include -DAU_ALSA -DPKGDATADIR=\"/usr/local/share/timidity\" -DPKGLIBDIR=\"/usr/local/lib/timidity\" -DDEFAULT_PATH=\"/usr/local/share/timidity\" -DTIMIDITY_OUTPUT_ID=\"s\" -O2 -c alsa_a.c alsa_a.c:52: conflicting types for `snd_pcm_t' /usr/local/include/alsa/pcm.h:300: previous declaration of `snd_pcm_t' alsa_a.c: In function `check_sound_cards': alsa_a.c:116: storage size of `ctl_hw_info' isn't known alsa_a.c:117: storage size of `pcm_info' isn't known alsa_a.c:152: warning: passing arg 2 of `snd_ctl_open' makes pointer from integer without a cast alsa_a.c:152: too few arguments to function `snd_ctl_open' alsa_a.c:186: warning: passing arg 2 of `snd_ctl_pcm_info' makes pointer from integer without a cast alsa_a.c:186: too many arguments to function `snd_ctl_pcm_info' alsa_a.c:194: `SND_PCM_INFO_PLAYBACK' undeclared (first use in this function) alsa_a.c:194: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once alsa_a.c:194: for each function it appears in.) alsa_a.c: In function `set_playback_info': alsa_a.c:235: `snd_pcm_playback_info_t' undeclared (first use in this function) alsa_a.c:235: parse error before "pinfo" alsa_a.c:237: storage size of `pparams' isn't known alsa_a.c:238: storage size of `pstatus' isn't known alsa_a.c:248: `pinfo' undeclared (first use in this function) alsa_a.c:263: `SND_PCM_PINFO_8BITONLY' undeclared (first use in this function) alsa_a.c:265: `SND_PCM_PINFO_16BITONLY' undeclared (first use in this function) alsa_a.c:277: request for member `rate' in something not a structure or union alsa_a.c:298: request for member `channels' in something not a structure or union alsa_a.c:300: request for member `channels' in something not a structure or union alsa_a.c:306: `SND_PCM_FMT_S16_LE' undeclared (first use in this function) alsa_a.c:311: request for member `format' in something not a structure or union alsa_a.c:311: `SND_PCM_SFMT_S16_LE' undeclared (first use in this function) alsa_a.c:342: `SND_PCM_FMT_U8' undeclared (first use in this function) alsa_a.c:347: request for member `format' in something not a structure or union alsa_a.c:347: `SND_PCM_SFMT_U8' undeclared (first use in this function) alsa_a.c:383: request for member `channels' in something not a structure or union alsa_a.c: In function `open_output': alsa_a.c:541: `SND_PCM_OPEN_PLAYBACK' undeclared (first use in this function) alsa_a.c:541: warning: passing arg 1 of `snd_pcm_open' from incompatible pointer type alsa_a.c:541: warning: passing arg 2 of `snd_pcm_open' makes pointer from integer without a cast alsa_a.c: In function `acntl': alsa_a.c:673: storage size of `pstatus' isn't known make[2]: *** [alsa_a.o] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/MUSIC/TiMidity++-2.9.5/timidity' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/MUSIC/TiMidity++-2.9.5' make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2 [root@innanu /usr/src/MUSIC/TiMidity++-2.9.5]# I don't get it! My /usr/include/sound|sys|alsa are all synced (to the alsa includes), but those defines dont exist in any of the includes anyway I can;t ust a compiled RPM as I need the alsa-sequencer part, which isn;t compiled into any rpm I have tried (about 10!) However, in the pcm.h there IS a var called SND_PCM_FORMAT_U8 vs SND_PCM_FMT_U8. I can't believe this... there must be a version of the pch.h that uses the FMT other than FORMAT. This seems so obvious an error I can;t believe I see nothing on the net about it. In addition snd_pcm_t is defined twice... the type in pcm.h conflicting with the instance in timidity's alsa_a.c I have search thru every pcm.h I have.. with no luck. I found one refernce in google (http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/alsa/alsa-driver/cards/Attic/card-dum…) which refers to the card_dummy.c, but I don;t have (want) and dummy as I have a real card. Does anyone have a clue as to why this is and how to fix it?
