Disk stream and DiskThread problems

Post by pianowave » Fri Jun 12, 2009 4:05 pm

Hello,

I am having problems with Linuxsampler: I have a Dual boot system with Windows XP and 64 Studio on it. Running Linuxsampler under Windows is a peace of cake. However, in my Linux setup playing the same library gives me errors and while playing a sound I notice how notes vanish, unloaded, get kicked out from the ram, you name it. In Terminal I can read the following messages:

DiskThread: there was no free slot
Disk stream order failed!

and

0xb7c81440Disk stream not available in time!
0xb7c81440Disk stream not available in time!
Freeing gig file from memory...OK
Stopping disk thread...OK
LinuxSampler stopped due to SIGINT.

I am not that Linux experienced to tell what this means and I hope this is rather easy to solve

Thanks a 1000 for helping me, Thomas

I found this ccp file: http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=w ... Iw6XV6FdAw

running 64Studio 2.1 with the following packages (updating brakes Linuxsampler here)
liblscp2 0.5.5-1+cvs080828~etch1
libgig6 3.2.1-1.1~etch1

No idea what CVS version(s) they exactly used, but if that reads like "cvsyymmdd", then I would say that's pretty old. Try to compile the latest CVS versions by yourself instead. As 64studio is Debian based, you can use our Debian compilation howto for this:

indeed, 64studio vs2.1 is a bit outdated. Meanwhile I compiled Linuxsampler from source, had no problems doing this. It works actually very well now. Some time ago I also compiled JACK, Ardour, and WineAsio from source. Overall I am happy with my system 8-)

Thanks for your response!
