This is pretty simple if they are all in one convenient place. Otherwise you can use gcombust and do drag drop from a file management tool like konqueror. Make a subdirectory to hold the wavs - usually I put them under /tmp. Next open up the Visualization window, select Audio I/O plugins, select Diskwriter. This opens up a subwindow, enter in the directory you created. After you've added all the files, press play, and in a few minutes (here's where diskwriter shines, it's fast) you'll have a number of wav's in that directory. Next open up a command line and $ cdrecord -dev=ATA:1,0,0 -v -eject -speed 12 -audio pad list of files Most of the time, after entering that I just type the first few letters of each track, and hit tab. I have to do that repeatedly for each track, but what the hell, it works :). Otherwise, you can use gcombust, or any other cd writing tool. But from the tenor of your email it would seem you're stuck on the mp3-wav conversion. Sir Robin -- David E.

It supposedly does - you can burn the mp3s and convert them at the same time. But I have found this doesn't always work well in practice. I've managed to coaster several CDs when trying this approach in the past, and I've used several front ends when doing so. I've found that it does not work well to do this especially if your mp3 sources are not 44.1K/stereo files. A bunch of my OTR is not, and the various front ends do not pay attention to this, and it results in coasters featuring chipmunk soounds. Also, from my experience, they do not support VBR encoding well at all. Having your front end segfault in the middle of a burn is not encouraging, to say the least. So far, I've found xmms-diskwriter / cdrecord the best way to do this. Sir Robin -- David E.

wouldn't want a program to make CDs, I'd want a program that could model
Gollum.
1. Put MP3z in dir.
2. Open a term in dir.
3. for i in *.mp3; do mv $i `echo $i | tr ' ' '_'`;done;
4. for i in *.mp3; do lame --decode $i `basename $i .mp3`.wav; done;
5. normalize -m *
6. Fire up GCombust, drag WAV files to Audio Files tab, order how you want,
burn.
Tip:
in .bashrc add these lines:
# mp3 functions
function mp3dec() { for i in *.mp3; do lame --decode $i `basename $i .mp3`.wav;
done; }
function mp3ren() { for i in *.mp3; do mv $i `echo $i | tr ' '
'_'`;done; }
Mind the line wrap, of course.
Then lines 3 and 4 are just mp3ren, then mp3dec.
Thanks, this was the kind of thing I was looking for.

I used the RPM from texstar, and it wanted one file called libxft.so.2. I found that on RPMFIND, installed it (RedHat RPM), then installed the tex release of k3b. Thanks so much for pointing me in the right direction. I'd like your personal opinion on this: do you think it matters in any way who made the RPMs, whether it's Mandrake, RH or tex. In other words is there any point to searching endlessly for an RPM from Mandrake or is it just as well to mix and match? Thanks, Jon Jon Yes it does matter who builds your RPMS. RPMS can be built well, and they can be built badly. Texstar builds good RPMs. He builds them against a standard 9.0 distribution. No cooker packages, and no third party packages. So you can be fairly confident they will work. HOWEVER, sometimes his RPMs do depend on other RPMs of his own, and that is what you have just experienced. He has built k3b with libxft2 as a dependency. What you have done is found a RedHat version of libxft2 which is NOT built against a Mandrake 9.0 distro. So you may have introduced font problems by doing so. What I recommend you do is remove RedHats libxft2 and replace it with Texstars. Tex's libxft2 is part of a series of packages Tex has built to dramatically improve the fonts in Mandrake 9.0. Others packages affected are fontconfig , freetype2, and libqt3. (as described here: http://www.jennings.homelinux.net/Xft-2.html ) I suggest you add Texstar as a urpmi source and then everything gets sorted out automatically. In a root terminal (all on one line) urpmi.addmedia texstar ftp://ftp.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/contrib/texstar/linux/distributions/mandrake/9.0/rpms with ./hdlist.cz Mandrake Software Manager will then find Texstar packages as well as Mandrake ones.

There are lots of phrases. My favorite is `nitwit' -- and the rationale is the Internet philosophy has always been you have extremely bright, non-partisan researchers look at a topic, do world-class research, do several competing implementations, have a bake-off, determine what works best, write it down and make that the standard. The OSI view is entirely opposite. You take written contributions from a much larger community, you put the contributions in a room of committee people with, quite honestly, vast political differences and all with their own political axes to grind, and four years later you get something out, usually without it ever having been implemented once. So the Internet perspective is implement it, make it work well, then write it down, whereas the OSI perspective is to agree on it, write it down, circulate it a lot and now we'll see if anyone can implement it after it's an international standard and every vendor in the world is committed to it. One of those processes is backwards, and I don't think it takes a Lucasian professor of physics at Oxford to figure out which. -- Marshall Rose, The Pied Piper of OSI Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
