Re: X11amp for 2.1?
Thanks for the pointer to xmms, but that is for potato, I.E. 2.2 I'm running slink, 2.1 I tried installing x11amp from potato and it called for newer libs, this, I believe was the reason Star Office 5.1 wrecked my system when it installed. My question was, is it possible to compile the sources to run on slink rather than potato? Or should I just wait for potato to go into freeze. Will the new Toy Story movie mean new names for Debian releases? Maybe I should build my own distribution and name the releases after characters in Antz. Cheers, John Gay

I am still too new to linux to deal with the problems of unstable. John, If you are using apt as your method for dselect you can upgrade apt to a later version that makes building the unstable sources on your stable slink fairly easy. Grab http://netgod.net/x/apt_0.3.7slink0_i386.deb and install it with dpkg -i. Then add an appropriate line to /etc/apt/sources.list like: deb-src http://debian.midco.net/debian potato main contrib non-free Change to your closest mirror that has sources This will enable apt to find the source packages only from unstable but not the binaries. You will need dpkg-dev and probably other libraries to build xmms. Debian source package do not support source dependencies yet. The best way to guess which ones is look at the depends line of the package and then grab the corresponding -dev deb package from your slink mirror. Then cd to a directory, ex. /usr/local/src and then execute, apt-get update; apt-get --compile source xmms This will download the xmms source and diffs and then extract them and build them into a Debian package compiled against your slink libs. If you get any erros during the compile about missing include files(*.h) search for them in the 'Search the Contents' search engine at http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages.html. Then install the appropriate file with 'apt-get install deb'. Then to start the build over again cd into the source directory that was created and issue './debian/rule binary'. Once this has completed succesfully you will have a shiny new xmms deb in the parent directory. Then just install it with dpkg -i.

*- On 29 Jul, John Gay wrote about Re: X11amp for 2.1? Actually, I installed from CD with dselect. I haven't set up my internet connection, as phone service here in Ireland is a bit expensive.

I'll have a look around the sources directory and see what I can find for xmms. Thanks for the pointer and info. Cheers, John Gay In that case you will need three files for the xmms source from the unstable branch, xmms*.dsc, xmms*.orig.tar.gz, xmms*.diff.gz. You still need the dpkg-dev and what ever headers it might use, it appears to use a fair amount of libs so look for the -dev versions in your slink archive. If they are not available in slink then it could get ugly if you have to build a bunch of other debs. Make sure not to change the size of the tar.gz and diff.gz file. First install dpkg-dev and then you can put all the xmms* files in one directory and run the command dpkg-source -x xmms*.dsc This will extract the source and apply the Debian diffs. Then cd into the directory and run ./debian/rules binary Another option is to ask the list if anybody has it compiled on slink, I don't so I can't help you in this regard.

FYI: x11amp requires a newer version of libc6 but when I try to install that it says there is a conflict with apt. Any help??? My first impression is to tell you that you probably don't want to upgrade to libc6 2.1 as some people (myself included) have had problems with it. That said, if you do decide to go the libc6 2.1 route, you should consider upgrading your whole system to potato. It's an easy process (apt-get update apt-get dist-upgrade). That said, what I'd do (and have done) is compile x11amp on your own. You'll need libgtk1.2-dev, libglib1.2-dev, esound-dev, libimlib-dev (may be gdk-imlib... anyway, all the stuff that's related to gtk v1.2) then get the source from www.x11amp.org, extract and compile. btw, if you can't find libgtk1.2-dev and its relatives, they're hiding in the gnome staging area.

Now for a solution... :) Here's a typical link it together gcc line during 'make': gcc -O2 -I.. -I.. -DDATADIR=\/usr/local/share/x11amp\ -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/lib/glib/include -o .libs/wmx11amp getopt.o getopt1.o wmx11amp.o -L/usr/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lgtk -lgdk -rdynamic -lgmodule -lglib -ldl -lXi -lXext -lX11 -lm ../libx11amp/.libs/libx11amp.so -lglib -Wl,--rpath -Wl,/usr/local/lib So I definately am linking in gtk, gdk, and glib! hmm... now that I think of it, should this say something like '-lgtk-1.2'? After all, the .so file is /usr/lib/libgtk-1.2.so.0. I'm trying it now. If it doesn't work, I'll send this message. :) hmm... maybe not: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:[~/x11amp-0.9-beta1.1]$ gtk-config --version 1.2.0 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:[~/x11amp-0.9-beta1.1]$ gtk-config --libs -L/usr/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lgtk -lgdk -rdynamic -lgmodule -lglib -ldl -lXi -lXext -lX11 -lm well... I'm at a loss. Thanks for the tips, do you or anyone else have any further ideas? Thanks! -Dano

I'm still a little squeamish about glibc2.1 and I'm running potato at work where ddd has just stopped working since upgrading from slink. I need ddd at home, so I'm not willing to take that step yet. Ah well, back in the day I was running a mostly slink system with a few potato libraries force-installed, so I see where you're coming from. :) Actually, I didn't force-install anything. What I've been doing is getting the .dsc, .diff, and orig.tar.gz files for what I need from potato and compiling a glibc2 version. I'm a little scared of mixing the two even though from what I've read, it should work. Thanks for posting that... made me look at mine which is almost the same... except for a few key differences: The first 4 libraries are missing! Well, that'll cause the errors I was getting, unfortunately, I haven't the foggiest idea how to correct that. I do, though it hasn't caused a problem in the past (even with x11amp-0.9a[123]) I have libgtk1 installed for the version of gimp I run (I've been meaning to upgrade, maybe this is an excuse) but not libgtk1-dev, so I don't see how stuff like this could be happening. I had a problem with the old slink packages of the libraries, so gtk-config was giving me the wrong one. So instead of compiling the new libraries in /usr/local I just replaced them with potato ones (pre-glibc2.1 days). Ok, I'll go compile the potato versions of gtk and glib. Does your gtk-config --libs return '-lgtk' or '-lgtk1.2'? I suppose if you just have one version of gtk installed, this is a non-issue. I'm at a loss as to why x11amp can't find those files. Maybe you need to explicitly put /usr/lib in your $LD_LIBRARY_PATH? I unset it but it didn't affect my x11amp. Yeah, I tried that one. It looked like that might be the problem since none of the libs it pulls in are in /usr/lib, but the gcc line I quoted has '-L/usr/lib' in it which should eliminate this need (if I'm right about what LD_LIBRARY_PATH does).

Re: x11amp always starts four processes
Every time I run x11amp (0.9a3-1), it starts four processes: Yup, that's supposed to happen. If you do a ps uxf, you'll notice that some of the x11amp processes are actually spawned by the original that you started. I think it has to do with threading. Hope that helps, Alan [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: x11amp not playing correctly
Matt Garman wrote: I installed x11amp, but it has a nasty problem. It skips when it plays, but consistenly. It's hard to describe, but imagine several, consistent but short-lived skips. The effect is such that it really slows down the music (because of the regular skipping). Sometimes it appears to skip twice as much (thus slowing play down by a factor of two). This is fixed in the newest version on their web site, not yet debianized. The old version just uses way to much cpu time. -- see shy jo
Re: x11amp, lsof kernels
Daniel J. Brosemer [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: [...] 1. x11amp (v 0.9) used to take about 13% CPU according to top... now it's sitting steadfast at 35.3% Is it really taking more processor, or is this due to some kernel option I might have chosen? I'm also noticing that things seem slightly more sluggish when sound is playing than before. Some applications launch faster though and memory and swap are freed much better now. All in all I guess the 2.2.1 kernel is worth it Christopher

It lives in non-free due to patent and license issues. I am sure a new version will be out shortly.

Does anyone know where one can find x11amp as a debian package.

Also a more recent version would be nice, but it's too much work to compile it myself, it requires some packages of really recent versions that aren't available as debian packages. A developer is working on this currently. However the new release does not work in many cases. So, it may be a little while. I found a deb package on x11amp's homepage. It's the latest version, and it works after doing some tricks with it. It needs qt = 1.41, so I installed potato's qt package. Then I had to: dpkg --ignore-depends=qt-1.41 -i licq-whatever.deb or something like that. -- -~* Daniel Elenius *~-
