I don't know whether this is a bug in ams, or a problem with my system...I suspect the later, but can't figure out what's wrong.
But, I am unable to get ams to run. It appears to compile OK. But, as noted below, running it results in a "Segmentation fault". I have installed qt3 and fftw. I edited the top of make_ams to match my system: box1:~/audio_code/ams-1.5.5$ head -5 make_ams QT_BASE_DIR=/usr/lib/qt3 QT_LIB_DIR=$(QT_BASE_DIR)/plugins-mt/styles QT_BIN_DIR=/usr/bin QT_INCLUDE_DIR=/usr/include/qt X11_LIB_DIR=/usr/X11R6/lib My ditribution is Debian stable (woody). My system is a PII 400Mhz w/768MB RAM. The version of g++ is 2.95.4. I have a working install of jackd 0.44.0 from cvs. I'm starting jackd like so: # jackd -v -R -d alsa -d ymfpci -r 44100 -zt -n 3 -p 512 I can start up multiple instances of jack_metro, connect them to the alsa ports and hear the beeps. So, jack appears to be working. But, if I start ams nothing is reported in the jackd output about a new client. ams does attempt to connect to the X server when started. I know this because if I 'su -' to get to root and then start ams: box1:/home/eric/audio_code/ams-1.5.5# ./ams ams: cannot connect to X server but, if I su without the dash so that root inherits my user environment ams gets past the point of connecting to the X server (assuming that comes first) and exits with a segmentation fault. I'm not sure what other information would be useful to you in helping me to sort this out. If there is anything else I should tell you, please let me know. Thanks in advance, Eric Rz. -------- Original Message -------- Subject: ams segmentation fault Date: Sat, 28 Dec 2002 21:47:34 -0500 From: Eric Dantan Rzewnicki <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Organization: zhevnycom To: Eric Dantan Rzewnicki <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> CC: [EMAIL PROTECTED] References: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <1041005858.4921.17.camel@eviltwin> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Eric Dantan Rzewnicki wrote: > I can now start jackd as root and > then start ams -j.

I perhaps spoke too soon. I had ams working yesterday on one box (at the office)... But, now I can't seem to get it working at home. It seems to compile fine, but when i try to start it: box1:/home/eric/audio_code/ams-1.5.5# ./ams Segmentation fault box1:/home/eric/audio_code/ams-1.5.5# ./ams -j Segmentation fault It doesn't matter if jackd is running or not. Either way it seg faults... What could cause this? What information should I provide to help sort this out? Thanks, Eric Rz.
