Hi, The update went well, and everything I've tried has worked so far. The only problem I've got is that the keyboard layout was not maintined. I have a keyboard in spanish, but the layout is now an english keyboard. Cheers, Andrés On Wed, Apr 29, 2009 at 7:11 PM, Holt wrote: > The build is now

Re: csound vs olpcsound

2009-03-25 Thread Andres Cabrera
Hi, Bear in mind that in Csound 5.09 the csound API was bumped (from 5.1 to 5.2), and 5.09 onwards are binary incompatible with the previous 5.XX releases. I think it would be better to get 5.10 in, as the changes in the API shouldn't require any changes to applications that depend on the Csound A

Re: TamTam

2009-02-25 Thread Andres Cabrera
Since TamTam uses Csound internally it is actually easier to use a MIDI keyboard than the QWERTY keyboard. It shouldn't be hard to add, but who is maintaining TamTam currently (and where?). I could help with this. Cheers, Andrés 2009/2/25 Caryl Bigenho : > Hi Aaron and other music enthusiasts...

Re: How to set up your XO to swap to an SD card

Hi John, Thanks for the info. Are there noticeable performance gains/losses when using an external SD swap partition? Won't adding a line to /etc/fstab make the swap partition be used on startup automatically? Cheers, Andrés On Sun, Aug 10, 2008 at 4:21 AM, John Gilmore <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote

Hola Carlos, man is man. You can install it with "yum install man" For ssh you can set the password using passwd (either for root or for the user). ifconfig is ifconfig, but on fedora, the /sbin directory is not on the ordinary user path, so you must use /sbin/ifconfig, or be root and use ifconf

How about just reenabling OSS emulation? It's included in alsa, so it should be no problem, maybe it's just a case of modifying modprobe.conf. I second Victor's suggestion for the csound api, though. I wonder if there is a major impact on performance by using it? Cheers, Andrés On Jan 18, 2008 5
