Till SuSE-8.2 I used Ecasound "Multitrack audio processing tools". Ideal to convert from any format to another and to capture an audio signal simultaneously as .wac or .cdr and .mp3 or .ogg files. With SuSE-10.1, Ecasound disappeared. No more .rpm package! Very difficult to compile manually the program because of dependencies problems, I suppose. Does anyone know where to find an rpm package of ecasound for SuSE-10.1-x86_64? Or another program that works, not Audacity that crashes irreversibly (icon "null" and go to hell). Of course there is Sox, oggenc, lame but ecasound was so easy to use. I can of course return to Debian Sarge which is still aware that ecasound exists. -- Alain Barthélemy cassandre@bartydeux.be http://www.bartydeux.be Linux User #315631
