 Applications need to be built with arts-Support, so I guess that this
 is missing on your second box. cd to a directory of one of the ports
 in question, and do a make config to check wether arts-support is
 available and selected, or not.

well, i went into the x11/kde3 port, and did a 'make config-recursive', and
checked over every config file that would come into play during the kde3 build.
the only one that named anything for arts, was x11/kdebase3.  which, i did an
unisntall, and reinstall of that port with:

[X] ARTSWRAPPER  Suid wrapper for aRts, req'd for realtime prio

but amarok still sees no arts options for putput plugin.  there is also no arts
options in the amarok config.

i love the fact that using ports/packages-6-stable, i can do 30 hours of work in
just a few, but i am secumbing to the notion that i may have to come back and
just rebuild kde the old fasioned way  :(


i dont' think that this will make a difference.
Where do you look for arts output? Amarok: Settings - Configure
Amarok - Engine - Xine - Output plugin?

BTW: Why do you want arts so badly? Amarok works just fine when using
the OSS ouput plugin, for example. So there's no need to use arts at
all. Same is valid for all other multimedia apps, too.

cannot select arts

2007-06-12 Thread Jonathan Horne
cc: freebsd-questions:

i have 2 systems, both FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p5, both KDE 3.5.6.  one system was 
built from ports (which for you non bsd'rs, is like building from sources), 
and one system i configured using pre-built packages from the FreeBSD 
packages-6-stable directory.

the system i built myself from ports, all multimedia apps are working properly 
with arts.  anything that would need to select arts as the output plugin, can 
(ie, amarok, mplayer).

my other system which i built from the packages, has the same arts pieces 
installed as my properly working station, but none of the multimedia apps 
regocnoze this, and arts is not a selection in the drop downs.  when i open a 
terminal on both stations and type 'arts[tab]', the exact same set of 
executable binaries shows up in the choice of autocompletions.  this system, 
will play sounds (ie, logon, errors), but apps that specifically want arts 
wont work at first.  if i get into all the places i can, and select OSS sound 
system, amarok will work for one session, but when i restart everything, back 
to square one.

is there somewhere in kde that i can specify that i want arts to be an 
available option to multimedia apps?

thanks,
