At some point fairly early on, maybe even in main.cpp, Rosegarden looks online for latest-version.txt. > The problem I have currently I'd I can only define VERSION as a proper > number and not a string in my Qmake project file. It looks like QMake supports major/minor/patch three-place version numbers just fine, so even though it's arguably weird to do things this way on Windows, there should still be a way to work it. > Will look at that - might be I need to recreate a resource file.

The Linux build setup picks up changes in the data files and rebuilds data.qrc automatically, and I bet yours doesn't. You can probably get by with that, since this stuff no longer changes very often. > > Apparently the various graphics system options don't work properly on > > Windows.

Quick research indicates that the two options we support end up being one and the same on Windows anyway, so it's probably safe to just idfef all of that crap out and just leave the configuration page option and all the logic that makes use of its setting out of the Windows build entirely. > I'm not surprised.

I don't have any way to test that off hand, since the only playback device I have to choose from is the built-in soft synth that comes with Windows. If I got arsed, I could move my USB MIDI dongle over, I guess, but the business end of that plug is buried under 40 pounds of tangled wires, and I'm very lazy. I don't suppose any of the soft synths like ZynAddSubFX or Aeolus got ported to Windows... That would be interesting to experiment with... > Merry Christmas! Incidentally, Rosegarden actually runs on my son's little Atom netbook with only 1 gig of RAM. The computer bogs easily and the soft synth gets crunchy under duress, but it works better than I ever expected. The last time I tried running Rosegarden on a low spec laptop on Linux, it was utterly hopeless. -- D.
