To fully test you'll need a guitar and pickup plugged into your soundcard, but even a go/nogo on whether it starts would be helpful. Where I developed the package, it works OK, but another older AMD machine, it fails during startup. This will help me to decide whether to push it to the F8,F9 updates repos. DaveT.

whysynth doesn't work
by Florin Andrei 07 Jan '26

I got whysynth-dssi-20060122-7.src.rpm from here: http://people.redhat.com/green/FE/devel/ I rebuilt it on FC6 without problems. The thing is, the GUI doesn't show up. The program appears to be working, I see the outputs being automatically routed in qjackctl, but there's no GUI anywhere! ############################################### $ jack-dssi-host whysynth.so jack-dssi-host: Warning: DSSI path not set jack-dssi-host: Defaulting to "/usr/local/lib/dssi:/usr/lib/dssi:/home/florin/.dssi" jack-dssi-host: OSC URL is: osc.udp://rivendell.home.local:15040/dssi/whysynth/WhySynth/chan00 host: Ready WhySynth_gtk starting (pid 4305)... ############################################### -- Florin Andrei http://florin.myip.org/

Dolby Digital over TOSLINK SPDIF to Audigy2 Platinum EX
by Luke Macken 16 Jan '10

16 Jan '10

Hey Fedora Audiophiles, I lost an hour last night trying to get this setup working, but to no avail. I was wondering if there is anyone out there with a similar setup, or with knowledge on how to get this up and running. Here is what I'm trying to do: Playstation 3 -> Optical -> Audigy2 Platinum EX external box -> Computer Speakers This setup works great out of the box, using Linear PCM 2 Ch. 48 kHz, but when having the PS3 output Dolby Digital 5.1/DTS 5.1 sound, I can hear the data, but it does not get converted properly, so I hear crazy pulsing sounds. I've tried tweaking every setting in alsamixer on every piece of hardware, but nothing seems to make a difference. Does anyone have any experience taking Dolby Digital data from an optical input, and convert the bitstream to analog, before sending it off to the speakers? I was under the impression that this external receiver could do this for me, but I can't seem to figure out how to get it to work. Thanks! luke

Future of PowerPC for Planet CCRMA?
by William M. Quarles 13 Jan '10

13 Jan '10

Hello Fedora-music list, For those of you who haven't read, I'm trying to help Fernando get a PowerPC distribution of Planet CCRMA going for Fedora. I took this on as an experiment, and boy is it an experiment. Well, there's news... I don't know if it's good or not yet. Fedora 12 turned my new-old Power Mac G4 AGP into an electronic brick. After much frustration, I gave up on F12 and tried F11 instead. F12 could not work in graphical installation mode on my machine (neither with kernel nor VESA modes), and also during and after text installation it could not get an ip address, through no fault of my home network at all. On Fedora 11 I had the same problem with graphical installation, but I was able to get a text-based network installation to work, then download most of the needed packages for graphical workstation with applications through yum at the text command prompt. This was much better. I'm guessing that X did not work at all for many early Mac G4 graphics cards on Fedora 11 nor Fedora 12 until recent updates came about, since at my check Fedora 12 has only been around 3-4 months, and both releases initially had the exact same problems with X with the installer on my ATI Radeon 7200 card. I don't know how anyone updated Fedora 12 after a disc install without being able to get an ip address, neither during installation nor post-installation. Perhaps something differently happened if they were able to get a graphical installation to work from the beginning on F12, I'm not sure. Anyway, after yumming up Fedora 11 for the ppc on my machine I was able to get X to start, but the display of fonts appears to be corrupted. My conclusion is that either 1. There hasn't been much (if any) testing done on Power Mac G4 AGP models, or 2. There isn't much testing done of Fedora on the ppc platform period due to the currently low demand for it on non-Intel Macs and Play Station 3s. Perhaps things will work differently on the newer Mac Minis that Fernando mentioned that he would try to get going sometime at Stanford. But until I can get a more functional install of X at home here, I won't be able to test any of the potential ppc builds myself. I still have Fedora 12 installed on two i686 machines in my home, so I would be able to easily access any build machines at CCRMA, provided that such access is granted. Any help that list members can grant is appreciated. I've written some to the Fedora users list as well, but I use GMANE to access it, and I don't think that GMANE is getting all of the new messages from the migration yet due to the insanely smaller traffic on there in recent days. Thanks all, William
