Re: [wsjt-devel] WSJT-X and pulse audio volume level

2014-11-30 Thread John N1ISA
Hi Richard,

You asked, Is there a way to make sure a consistent name is presented to
PulseAudio?

I think I might have a solution that has worked for me. It has even
corrected a few minor USB Sound Card issues with WSPR.

I have my motherboard sound card disabled in BIOS. I use a USB Sound Card as
my default Sound Card.

In the alsa-base.conf file I force my USB Sound Card to use slot O.

If you open, and edit up /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf you will see the
line(s):

#prevent abnormal driver from grabbing index 0

options snd-usb-audio index=-2

I edit the number -2 to 0 (zero).

My line looks like this:
options snd-usb-audio index=0

Also... notice the line at the bottom in alsa-base.conf:

#keep snd-usb-audio from be(e)ing loaded as the first sound card

options snd-usb-audio index=-2

I edit mine to look like this:
#options snd-usb-audio index=-2

I comment out the line with a #

then... Reboot.

Oh... do not forget to edit as root, or sudo.

In Ubuntu... sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf

This might help you. These edits have helped me with pulseaudio in wsjtx and
wspr. If these edits do not work for you, you can revert back to the
original alsa-base.conf with your text editor.

Give it a try.

73, John, N1ISA

Re: [wsjt-devel] WSJT on ARM low power boards, dev is ready

2014-11-30 Thread Alan VK2ZIW
Hi all,

WSJT Development ARM platform is ready.

WSJT-X ARM platform is ready.

WSJT, thus far, Python PIL issue.

Details:

27/11   Loaded Fedora--armhfp-21_TC2-sda.raw.xz from
/downloads/linux/fedora/arm..
Copied the SD card's F21 root to /dev/sda1, fixed /etc/fstab, set root 
passwd
Then copied the zImage to an SD card of Bananian, 1st 500Mb (/boot)
Edited uEnv.txt
Dev for WSJT:
yum-config-manager --save --setopt=fedora.skip_if_unavailable=true
yum groupinstall 'Development Tools'

yum install python3-tkinter fftw-devel 
yum install python-devel python-numpy python-imaging-tk python-pillow-tk 
yum install python3-numpy-f2py libsamplerate-devel alsa-plugins-samplerate
yum install portaudio portaudio-devel

WSJT-X

yum install qt-devel  --- fails

 Hi all,
 
 I've downloaded Fedora-LXDE-armhfp-21-TC2-sda.raw.xz and installed
 it onto my Banana Pi with SATA disk. No small feet as there are no
 instructions that WORK. I've got there by using the uboot from
 Bananian to load the kernel from Fedora and use the SATA disk as root
 copied from the Fedora SD card.
 (when running on SATA, the SD card can be removed/changed)
 
 Gotcha: Still kernel 3.4.90 with no kernel modules. Obviously
 the Fedora team are awaiting the 3.17.4-300.fc21 kernel.
 
 So now it's software development time:
 
 # python -V  =  3.4.1
 
 gcc 4.9
 gcc-gfortran 4.9
 
 Access for you guys, SSH and RDP to www.unixservice.com.au
 user: wsjtdev 
 pwd:  wsjtdev2
 
 Have fun.

Hi Alan,

Just FYI, if you have installed python-numpy (python2x version), and
your building later versions of WSJT (v10+) / WSPR (v4.0+), which use
Python3, you should remove python-numpy and only install python3-numpy
unless you need it elsewhere.

73's
Greg, KI7MT
