Hello everyone,
Heartfelt thanks to everyone who's contributed to the Linuxsampler project!
I've been using LS and friends on Ubuntu, works great. Recently switched to AVLinux (for those of you who haven't tried it yet, I wholeheartedly recommend it! great for Linux audio). But getting LS to work has been proving rather difficult, as mentioned in this thread.
On ubuntu, I compiled it from source, going by this howto. Tried doing the same on AVLinux, and I consistently get this error (i've omitted the initial lines):

Code: Select all

.....
make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/pcuser/src_AVL/LS_and_friends/libgig-3.3.0/osx'

Could someone help me out here? I am reluctant to use the solution proposed in the other thread, namely boot into an alternate kernel, for various convoluted reasons (!).
Thanks in advance!
Cheers,

Guru

An update:

I tried working around the libgig compile issue, by using only the libgig6 and libgig-dev debfiles, and compiling everything else (liblscp, liblinuxsampler, linuxsampler, etc) from source. The compile itself was successful, and generated working .deb files in the parent directory. Now I can fire up linuxsampler, without any error messages. But this is what happens when I try to load a .lscp file:

Code: Select all

Hope this helps diagnose the problem!

Success!

I came across this thread, after which I checked out the latest CVS version, and compiled it with the '-01' flag. Works Perfectly now!
I was earlier using '-03' in the /debian/rules file. I haven't checked to see if it works with '-02', or even '-03' with the latest CVS. It's working now, and I don't want to experiment for some time, at least!
Hope this helps...
Cheers,

Guru
