Yeah, that can be frustrating. Hmmm, looking at my sources, somehow, although there is at least one 9.1 package, most of what I am seeing are 9.0 contrib/ packages. I don't know how that happened but, if you want, I put the 9.0 version of wxGTK2.3_1-2.3.2-7mdk.i586.rpm, which installs when I 'urpmi hackaudacity' on my, otherwise, 9.1 setup, here: http://home.mindspring.com/~rolfpedersen/wxGTK2.3_1-2.3.2-7mdk.i586.rpm Sorry for the confusion! If you 'rpm -ivh' with both packages in one command and it installs, the executable is still audacity and starts by typing 'audacity' at the prompt. Rolf
That is pretty cool. I downloaded the above and it installed with no complaints. I removed audacity and installed hackaudacity.
On startup it says "audio I/O error". I kind of expected this. Same thing with the old audacity, if you go to preferences to select an audio device the list is empty. I am sorely tempted to try a mickeysoft trick. Reboot and see if it is some sort of glitch. :)
Try what Jack suggested: start by typing 'soundwrapper audacity'
Another thing that impacts how sound apps access the sound server is the timeout setting in kcontrol > Sound > Sound System. I always set that to 1 sec so that "arts unaware" apps will not have to wait the default 30 seconds to use the sound server.
