Sorry l0wt3ch,

I missed that.

I shall do as you say re the system timer.

Thanks.

Hi l0wt3ch, Posted this on the other thread but must have been missed. Loaded up the new RT kernelled version but still get the "Resolution too Low" warning in Rosegarden. This can be checked simply by starting up Jack then Rosegarden & looking for a yellow warning triangle at the bott...

Hi GustavoYz I'm not running aMSN on Puppy yet. I got distracted by Puppy-Studio which I am setting up on that same laptop. I will get to a stage where I would like to install aMSN but I'm still a bit puzzled by the repos in Puppy. I understand that if the Repos are not ticked they don't show up in ...

Hi I have a Compaq R3000 2.8Ghz Celeron Laptop with a full install of Puppy 5.1. I've tried to adjust my touchpad settings but it tells me that the Synaptic Touchpad driver is not installed. As well as that I get a high pitched and crackling sound that I can just hear in normal use and gets worse wh...

Yo chaps (and -esses, perhaps),

There's a new thread on PupStud:

Ubuntu Studio: "Puppy Edition" is now "Puppy Studio".

Hi All, Thanks for the bug report about midi and the new kernel. I don't actually use midi, so I had no way of knowing. (Any firewire testers out there? Smile ) Might be firewired in the near future, l0wt3ch, but not yet - my olde laptop has the port & I'm informed that Firewire's the way to go ...

@calexand

Me too...

Thanks ciento. How about a pot of tea? Thought I'd been through all the Rosegarden stuff but after doing your Google I found this (it confirms my suspicions since my last post): http://www.rosegardenmusic.com/wiki/frequently_asked_questions [quote]What does "System timer resolution is too low&q...

Thanks shako, That tip will help for now. I really need this laptop for audio work so if that's the trick just now it will do. Meantime I've installed 2.6.33.5-rt25 which seems to work fine except that I still get the issue with Rosegarden noted in my previous post so it's probably unrelated to the ...

Hi All, Back on topic... Gear: Presario R3000 Laptop 2.8Ghz Celeron 1424Mb Kernel: 2.6.33.2(i686) [original as installed] Tried Rosegarden in UsPE3 with it controlling a couple of synths & Hydrogen + a couple of audio tracks. It plays everything, just, but with the following notice: System Timer...

Thanks Lobster, That's one heck of a resource which I will certainly delve into. Trouble is, once I have the source code (tarball) do I treat it the same way as in Ubuntu or do I require something puppyishly extra? Pre-Lucid all seemed to be well worked and tight but we seem to be between two stools...

Excellent news l0wt3ch, all round! Quick Q - I'd like to upgrade Rakarrack from the 0.3 version included to the current 0.5.8 & I'm told I need an extra file(s) in order to compile from source. Used to do it in Ubuntu but haven't tried it in Puppy yet. What do I need and how do I do it? Given th...

Hi bigpup, Did you run examine dependencies before you selected install? Yes I did. I was trying to install aMSN 98.3, which comes from the Ubuntu-style repos. It came up afterwards that some dependencies, and some libraries in my case, couldn't be located. I believe there's an aMSN 97.2 in the Pupp...

Hi, I get the scrambled text scrolling issue on Puppy 5 on Firefox - text lines scramble when you scroll. I have a Presario R3000 which has plenty of RAM, 1.5Gb, and a Celeron 2.8Ghz processor. It has an ATI Radeon 9100 graphics chip in it so it could be a driver problem. I've tried choosing the Rad...

I have the same problem. Do they have to be built from source?

I think playdayz is working on better compatibility with Ubuntu Lucid repos.

Hi All, Just discovered UbuntuStudio Puppy Edition 3 & it's working well re low latency and general audio operation. I have a scrambling of lines of text on scrolling when reading stuff in the browser but that's for the main Puppy forums. I'm mightily impressed with this audio distro but what's ...

Thanks for those links, Stu90. I will definitely try those out once I've become a bit more familiar with Puppy. Just loaded Ubuntu Studio Puppy Edition 3 onto my olde Presario R3000 laptop & it's working a treat. I believe it's based on Puppy5.0. One thing I haven't been able to do is set my key...

Thanks Bert.

Hi stu90,

Yes, one look at Puppy tells me that quite quickly. I'm not looking for Ubuntu-lite, just looking for shortcut options to compiling audio software directly within Puppy.

Thanks all.

Brown Mouse,

Have you tried using amsn_tcltk-0.97.2_8.5.2.pet?

No I haven't tried that but I will - it's an older version but would do just now.

Incidentally, can you uninstall via the package manager too? Or is there another method?

Thanks.

Thanks, I will download and try. Looks good. :) But also, is it possible to download from the Lucid repos without dependency issues? If it's a case of downloading then chasing a few dependencies then that's fine so long as I know I've not got something set wrongly & I'm setting myself up for a b...
