[opensuse] Audacity does not start
I downloaded Audacity 1.3.3 bèta for openSUSE 10.2 from audacity.sourceforge.net (as I could not download the stable 1.2.6) and installed it with Yast flawless. But I don't succeed to get it started. I made a link to the desktop (as with other programs) but nothing happens. Can anybody give me a hint how to advance?

Try running in commandline and hopefully see error message. E-Mail disclaimer: http://www.sunspace.co.za/emaildisclaimer.htm -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Whenever you don't know where to download whatever it is, you first try http://benjiweber.co.uk:8080/webpin to see if it is somewhere provided by one of the Suse repositories. In this case you'll find that it is provided by the packman repository (or one of its mirrors) and that it is part of the "mad" package, mad 0.1.15.1b to be precise. The exact url is left as an exercise to the reader. :-) If webpin doesn't turn up anything, Suse doesn't provide it, but then there still is google...

Open a shell (konsole or whatever else you like), and start audacity there with $ /path/to/wherever/you/put/audacity in order to see the error messages. cheers, Sonja -- Sonja Krause-Harder (skh@suse.de) SUSE Research & Development ----------------------------------------------------------------- SUSE Linux Products GmbH GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I am running Audacity 1.3.3 beta for openSUSE 10.2 and it seems to be okay. At least it startups okay. So I'm not sure what is going on, on your system. Eddie -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
