hello,
First-Time poster here.
I have used fink since the OS 10.0 times, and very grateful for the
10.2 update. My previous version of fink had gotten all tangled,(
crashing all the time, no white border around the black cursor etc...)
was very happy at the chance for clean install, and took it.
It is working quite well for me, although I did have to repeat the
process a few times before some of those earlier mentioned incomplete
install problems worked themselves out. My only complaint/question
is that certain packages are missing in the new version. I am set to
have fink update via CVS but cannot install packages I I have loved
using such as, amaya, windowmaker, links (ssl) , and I think some
others.
I have windowmaker going by means of a cheater patch (the 6.x package
from forked) - the other applications are by no means "Mission
critical" to me, but they were very very useful. I checked on the Web
site, and my guess is that these packages have not yet been ported to
the 10.2 version. I just wanted to know if you were still planning to
support the applications gone missing in the 10.2 version.
Sounds like there are fink developers on the list, I'd like to thank
them for all of their hard work, and the excellent product they have
put out for us. It truly makes OS X a superior computing experience.
I love the 3 OS's at once feel.
one more question, has anyone been able to get arts working? I have
to admit at not trying very hard so far, but here are my results:
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
[12:01am dgetzin~]%artswrapper
using device Built-in audio controller for output:
with sample rate 44100.000000, 2 channels and 32-bit sample
unsupported device.
Error while initializing the sound driver:
Can't open stream for audio output
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
are there unsatisfied dependencies? Am I calling the wrong binary?-
syntax errors? I assume that I have to call another audio output, or
specified somehow but I don't know the flags for it. arts(wrapper
etc..) --help brings up the same error messages.
Anyway, thanks for all your hard work developers, and thanks advance
for any help on the questions.
thank you very much,
David Getzin
