Musix 2.0 Sound Problems
by Clinton Tinsley 30 Nov '09

30 Nov '09

I have tried both the live DVD mode on a HP ZD8000 laptop and installed on a MSI FX3000+ system, I cannot get any sound on either one of these computers. I don't get any errors, run noatun and the it plays MP3's but no sound on the laptop. On the desktop, basically the same thing but looking at the jack control, it won't start and I don't have anything in the "Audio Tab" but in the Alsa Tab, it does show my Creative Labs SB Live! Platinum (CT4760P) card. Below is the error messages from JACK Audio Control on attempting to start it. New to Musix, hoping for some help on this. Thanks. ALSA: final selected sample format for capture: 16bit little-endian ALSA: got smaller periods 2 than 3 for capture ALSA: cannot configure capture channel cannot load driver module alsa 08:47:43.452 JACK was stopped successfully. 08:47:43.452 Post-shutdown script... 08:47:43.452 killall jackd jackd: no process killed 08:47:43.870 Post-shutdown script terminated with exit status=256. 08:47:45.183 Could not connect to JACK server as client. - Overall operation failed. - Unable to connect to server.

Fwd: [LAD] Programming for Lilypond (how to become an developer)

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Grammostola Rosea <rosea.grammostola(a)gmail.com> Date: Wed, Apr 1, 2009 at 6:48 AM Subject: [LAD] Programming for Lilypond (how to become an developer) To: Linux-audio-dev(a)lists.linuxaudio.org Cc: linux-audio-user <linux-audio-user(a)lists.linuxaudio.org> Hi, I'm just an Lilypond user, not an programmer. I really think Lilypond is a core app for GNU/Linux musicians and many apps has Lilypond export functions. To keep improving Lilypond and because some people are starting to work on some Tablature improvements, which makes me really excited, I thought, let's make a call. Maybe you are a Lilypond user with a little programming background and want to contribute to Lilypond or you need a special feature/ improvement in it. Then you can start learning to do the programming yourself. You can start as a Frog, some kind of 'Lilypond student programmer'. You start learning the basics, maybe fix some bugs (like Frogs eat flies) and add some features you want with the help of the Lilypond developers. More info about developing for Lilypond: http://lilypond.org/web/devel/participating/ You can see the Contributors' Guide for some detailed information about participating: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/Documentation/devel/contrib-guide/index#index At this moment there are some guys beginning to work on more and better Tablature functionality for Lilypond. Which is great imo also to get better Tablature functionality in GUI apps like Mscore and Tuxguitar. So maybe it's a good moment to jump in, and I think they can use some man power! See for example these threads: http://www.nabble.com/guitar-tab-feature-request-td21995370.html Thanks in advance, \r (Just an happy Lily user/ guitarist) _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-dev mailing list Linux-audio-dev(a)lists.linuxaudio.org http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-dev -- Hernán http://h.ordia.com.ar GnuPG: 0xEE8A3FE9

[Fwd: Re: realtime kernel for Debian]

Hi, There is an interesting discussion about an default realtime kernel for Debian on the Debian developers mailinglist. There are suggestions about maintaining a realtime kernel and the possibility to let Debian derrived multimedia distro builders help with that. Please consider to join the discussion and maybe join the Debian realtime kernel build/test group. The title of the thread is 'realtime kernel for Debian' Regards, \r

Please contribute to the Debian Multimedia Team!

Hi, I noticed that you have some packages in your repo, which are not in Debian itself. My first question is: where can I find the *.dsc files of the packages? The next thing why I mail you is because it would be great and better if those packages are also in Debian. Why don't you upload the packages to Debian and join the Debian Multimedia Team for package building? The Debian Multimedia Team needs more people who take care of one package (which you uses a lot) and maintain it. Another big argument is: It will improve: 1) the quality of the packages 2) Musix as a multimedia distro 3) Debian (and derivatives) for multimedia usage 4) the state of Linux audio (multimedia) in general So there are both quality and social arguments for it! *Why the Debian Multimedia Team? * 1) Because they want to improve Debian for music production! 2) Debian has an flexible, fast and easy package management 3) A lot of people use Debian (based) distro's, Debian itself, Ubuntu (Studio), 64studio, Sidux, Mepis etc. 4) You will learn to build quality packages 5) You don't have to become a Debian developer (DD), you can just become and stay a package maintainer. *What can I do?* 1) Build or improve packages for the Debian Multimedia Team. It's recommended to maintain packages you use yourself often. 2) Report bugs and wishes 3) Join the Debian multimedia team mailing list: pkg-multimedia-maintainers(a)lists.alioth.debian.org *Where can I find more info?* Wiki: http://wiki.debian.org/DebianMultimedia Packaging: http://wiki.debian.org/DebianMultimedia/DevelopPackaging Existing packages which needs help: http://wnpp.debian.net/ Debian New Maintainers' guide: http://www.debian.org/doc/maint-guide/ (!) Bugs: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?which=maint&data=debian-multim… It would be great if you choose one package which you uses a lot and maintain it for the Debian Multimedia Team! It would improve the quality of Linux audio and it will help the whole community! Kind regards, \r

Fwd: [LAD] Join the Debian Multimedia Team! (to improve the state of Linux audio)

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Grammostola Rosea <rosea.grammostola(a)gmail.com> Date: Sat, Mar 7, 2009 at 10:37 AM Subject: [LAD] Join the Debian Multimedia Team! (to improve the state of Linux audio) To: Linux-audio-user(a)lists.linuxaudio.org, Linux-audio-dev(a)lists.linuxaudio.org Hi, Many of the people of the Linux audio community uses Debian or a Debian based distro (Ubuntu (Studio), 64Studio, Musix, Sidux, Mepis etc. etc.). Most of those distro's uses and rebuild the packages of Debian (unstable). There are a lot of audio packages build by the Debian Multimedia Team, but there are also a lot which are not in Debian yet (and so also not in Ubuntu (Studio), Sidux, 64studio etc.) So there is a need for more people who wants to contribute to the Debian Multimedia Team. Again, you don't have to be a plain Debian user to contribute or to take advantage of it. You will help to improve the state of Linux audio in general (at least the Debian based distro's and their community), which will be good for us all, but also for newbies who are not able yet to build all the packages themselves to enjoy all the nice things Linux audio has to offer. Also note that it is possible to build Debian unstable packages on other distro's then Debian itself (search for Pbuilder on the Internet for instance)! It will also be good for the Linux audio developers and their software. It would be more easy to install, use, test and enjoy the software by the Linux audio community! There are a lot of people these day who has an own (PPA) repo. This is ok, (and maybe it will be a good thing if the Linux audio developers make their packages available as much as possible in a Debian unstable repo/package, so it can be used on Debian and it is easy to rebuild it for Debian based distro's), But to bundle forces and to get safe, stable and quality packages, joining the Debian Multimedia Team will get much better quality packages and you will help far more people then having your solo private repo... *Why the Debian Multimedia Team? * 1) Because they want to improve Debian for music production! 2) Debian has an flexible, fast and easy package management 3) A lot of people use Debian (based) distro's, Debian itself, Ubuntu (Studio), 64studio, Sidux, Mepis etc. 4) You will learn to build quality packages 5) You don't have to become a Debian developer (DD), you can just become and stay a package maintainer. *What can I do?* 1) Build or improve packages for the Debian Multimedia Team.
