I got it working.  As background, this is a fresh FC14 86_x64 system,
static IP, hostname=laptop (coincidentally the first machine on which
I've changed the hostname from the default 'localhost').

The installer, and/or NetworkManager created the /etc/hosts file with
home (127.0.0.1) resolving to "localhost" and "localhost.localdomain,"
and my private IP (192.168.2.105) resolved to "laptop" (hostname).  It
also had IPv6 loopback line which had the IPv6 address resolving to
"localhost6," "localhost.localdomain6" AND "laptop."  I ignored the IPv6
line since I don't use IPv6 (but would like to have it still functional). 

I tried various combinations of putting the hostname in the line with
the home lo address, putting "localhost" in the line with my private IP,
and none of that worked.

I then, out of frustration, took "laptop" out of the IPv6 line, AND IT
WORKED!!

DSSI GUIs now actually work.  Networking still works, from what I can
tell so far.  I've found no problems.

If something blows up related to this alleged "fix," I'll post that here
too.

Redhat tends to set the up the /etc/hosts to have only the loopback 
line, ie:


127.0.0.1  localhost localhost

Sometimes, the installer takes the hostname that you provide it and puts 
it on the same line, ie:


127.0.0.1  hostname localhost localhost

That would be the standard setup for DHCP-driven computers.  For 
statically allocated IP addresses, the idea is to put the hostname on 
the line with the real ip address, ie:


127.0.0.1 localhost localhost
192.168.0.20 hostname hostname.mynet

I would try either the second or the third method

This has something to do with networking, with the way /etc/hosts is 
configured on certain systems out of the box.  You have to make a minor change 
to /etc/hosts to get the plugin GUIs working.


Quite what that minor change is, I wish I could remember.  I think it has 
something to do with there not being a proper entry for localhost, but some of 
the other things I googled up seem to implicate ipv6 too.

Yup, I am not clear on the details either. This condition seemed to be
common using NetworkManager in Fedora systems. You can edit
/etc/hosts, but NM will overwrite it next time it reconnects to a
network. Perhaps there is a way of configuring NM so it writes a
/etc/hosts that doesn't screw with liblo, but I haven't investigated
it.

I think an expeditive solution may be to disable IPv6 in your
computer, if you don't use it. Or perhaps using wicd instead of NM?

[Rosegarden-user] RG 11.02 DSSI issue

2011-02-28 Thread Al Thompson
I just built up a new FC14 x86_64 system, and installed RG 11.02, and
the usual collection of synths, including Fluidsynth DSSI.  I can select
that as a synth plugin, but it tells me there are no controls that can
be edited.  Clicking the "edit" button does nothing.  I can't even load
soundfonts.  What am I missing in this system where I can have
Fluidsynth, and apparently enough of the framework that RG lets me
select it, but I can't edit anything or pull the Fluidsynth GUI up??

My old FC7 system worked well, but I simply got tired of not being able
to compile newer versions of anything.  Now I have new versions of
everything, but don't have it to the point where I can easily get
anything done.
