I was ripping some CD's and wanted to combine two tracks together. Having used Audacity for several years (including under 9.1, 9.2 and 9.3) I fired up YaST and installed it. After loading Audacity, I go to insert a WAV file. In this case, it is about 20MB. Once I do that, Audacity completely locks up. In fact, KDE locks up and is unresponsive to any keyboard commands - ctrl+alt+esc, alt+backpsace, f2... The disk light spins relentlessly. I finally simply power off the machine and restart. First off, for some reason, Audacity is runing 1.3.0 beta. On my XP and 2K systems, I've got 1.2.4 stable. Unfortunately, the only other version available is 1.2.3 for SuSE 9.1 - which I imagine will have conflicts. Ideas? Is there a better audio editor? Also, what could I have done in this instance to gracefully exit? TIA -- kai ponte www.perfectreign.com linux - genuine windows replacement part
