People, I really get out of my mind from frustration, excuse me if I sound harsh... it's the adrenaline still rushing through my veins...
About a month or so ago, I discovered the sonatina sample set. So I decided to try it out. Guess what, it worked! Linuxsampler worked just fine, jfantasia worked so good and I actually wrote some music with it. Then the exams came along. So I had to study, no time to write music anymore. OK, no problem, let's continue afterwards. Today I took the step, and decided to fire up jfantasia. guess what : It did not work anymore! "Connecting to LinuxSampler: Can't establish connection." Here goes my creative moment AGAIN! What does someone have to do to have a stable system? THAT KEEPS WORKING! Yet again I had to spend hours and hours to figure out what has happened with my system, and really, the only thing I want to do is MAKING MUSIC, the only thing I don't get to. When starting from commandline lscp uses a different IP then Jfantasia's default connection setting, and I already discovered that the port should be set to something else, like 8000 instead of 8888 as entered in the jfantasia default, because for some mysterious reason port 8888 appears to be in use for something else... and I don't even know what... netstat --listen shows 'localhost:888', whatever that might mean. Starting linuxsampler first with 8000 as port and then with the same settings in jfantasia it finally works, but why the change in behavior? Is it an update that caused all this? Can someone plz explain to me why I have to dig into man-files listening to ports, browsing forums, using mailinglists, only to end up so exhausted from it that I simply don't get into doing what I want/have to do: MAKING MUSIC? And this only a month after having a working system? grtz, Bart http://www.bartart3d.be/ On facebook <https://www.facebook.com/pages/BartArt3D/169488999795102> On Twitter <https://twitter.com/#%21/Bart_Issimo> On Identi.ca <http://identi.ca/bartart3d> On Google+ <https://plus.google.com/u/0/b/116379400376517483499/>
