Re: [newbie] Sound recorder?
You might have sox installed, since I have it installed and it gave me the same error. Try "rpm -q sox" and see if something comes up. Then for the sound problem, are you running any desktop sound things?

Re: [newbie] Sound recorder?
alex found his "record" at: >[alex@homer alex]$ which record >/usr/bin/record >[alex@homer alex]$ rpm -qf `which record` >xawtv-misc-3.21-3mdk and that is where mine is also. sounds like maybe this has changed since 7.1? i only discovered this recently Adrian Smith 'de telepone dude Telecom Dept. x 7042 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [newbie] Sound recorder?
(Mandrake 7.2) Following suggestions, I tried successfully the following commands: locate filename rec sample.wav play sample.wav This didn't work: record sample.wav (no matter, as rec does it) Also, grecord (GUI program) started to work, but had this error message: "couldn't find sox" "can't open input file /dev/dsp : device or resource busy" Thanks to all for the help.

howdy -- i'm using 7.2, full developer install. "play filename.wav" also works on my system. i have not tried "rec filename.wav", but "record filename.wav" does work for me.

hi... i'm not at my linux box so i can't look i don't actually know where it is. i was sitting there one day & simply typed "record" at the console & it started up. i simply guessed that linux might have a command called record that would record. =) i was logged on as user, so it's not a root command or anything. i have 7.2 and did a 100% full developer install, if that has anything to do with it. i would expect it would be in the same directory as the other user binary files. but as i said... just guessing. =) i'll check my box when i go home tonight & see where it is at.

Try: locate record (no need for root) /usr/bin/record /usr/bin/grecord /usr/bin/arecord /usr/bin/cdrecord Y'll might want to look in Freshmeat for 'SoundStudio' I don't remember where, but a bunch of people were bragging about it recently. -- Tom Brinkman [EMAIL PROTECTED] Galveston Bay > > Adrian Smith wrote: > > i'm sure there are other ways, but one way to do it is open a > > terminal and type the command "record". use the space bar to > > toggle recording on/off. of course, "record --help" for > > assistance.

[newbie] Sound recorder?
I can see some players and mixers in KDE, but no recorder? Is there a way to use microphone to record to a .wav file? Program name?
