Hi, sudo chmod -s caed ripcd rdcatchd
Is all you need as it removes the super user ID which makes the daemons always run as root regardless of what user called them. Theres a couple of things I'd change in that guide going forwards which simplify things a bit and as you both already pointed out pulse is easily skipped in that guide. Using Riv longer term, pulse is best avoided. After some random updates I ended up with X lockups due to something that pulse was doing when it joined with JACK and youtube videos are hit and miss depending on your flash and browser combination so its not really a useful setup. Soft phones like Skype and Ekiga were handy though (although theres bound to be something out there thats JACK aware). Theres a guide for Debian 6 on the Rivendell wiki that I wrote after I had trouble getting GPIO to work on Ubuntu which does things the simpler way. All of the steps including package names apply to Ubuntu as well (you don't need to add the mp3 repo as Ubuntu has that already). The only thing that doesn't happen is the /var/run directory and to simplify that I'd just add a sudo mkdir /var/run/rivendell and the appropriate chmod to /etc/rc.local (seems a lot easier than the init script route). http://rivendell.tryphon.org/wiki/Rivendell_on_Debian_6 I wrote it initially for Riv 2.1.1 but everything is the same in 2.1.5. The only thing to watch out for is if you're installing under Ubuntu 11.10 or 12.04 as you have to mess with the configure script to amend some QT bits. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] on behalf of Timothy R.

I think I just need a good restart. All the files are already root:root and it was working right after the upgrade and before all my RD restarts. I'll give it a good reboot and tinker more if I need to. And I figured that was what you meant in the earlier email. :) Unfortunately I don't drink coffee, so I can't use that as my excuse. ;) ....maybe I should start. :) > > > There is actually a PDF that Wayne Merricks wrote which goes through a > bunch of this stuff - it is for the older Rivendell 2.0.x and Ubuntu > 11.04, but getting the Rivendell - Jack stuff working on Ubuntu 10.04 is > the same process as described in the PDF.

Yeah, I was going through Wayne's thing the other day. This system already has pulse disabled. I didn't want to mess with it, so I just gutted it out. The only little sticky here right now is just the waveform data on the ogg files. It's not horrible, as they're all already marked for intro/segue, but should I need to change one any, I can't. Eventually, they'll all get converted to mp2 now that it's out of patent, but there's too many to do that to right now and I need to focus on loading the new stuff first. It just seems like it's not reading the .energy files on the ogg's, since the mp2's have the energy file in the .wav envelope not as a separate file. I'll have to keep playing some and see what I can figure out. Thanks a lot for the help, Lorne! It definitely got me started again!
