I have twice had the audio mute itself on my (Debian) installation, and had to fight the system to get it back on. Also, some programs "hog" the audio - no other program can make sounds while they are running. Denemo does this, and so if you have inadvertently started two Denemo sessions then one will not sound. Re-boot your computer to be quite sure there is no zombie around. For the audio output, only the Audio tab is relevant. You can cause problems if you set Sample Rate (44100) or Period Size (256) to certain values - indeed I know of no system where they should be altered. It would be worth while starting afresh, as audio invariably works straight out of the box on GNU/Linux. To start afresh delete the directory ~/.denemo-2.0.6 Then re-launch Denemo and say you don't want to import your old preferences when it asks you. > but I don't know what I'm doing. > > Both playback and printing worked satisfactorily under Denemo 1.0.1. It would be worthwhile to email the preferences file that you have for 1.0.1. This file is in ~/.denemo-1.0.1 and is called denemorc That will give a clue as to the settings you had that worked.
