Hi John
I've got Audacity installed on opensuse 10.2 with full MP3 support, including audacity. The default installation contains zero support for MP3s apart from the realplayer engine if you include the non-oss CD or installation source.
I use smart to do my package management and have the following channels set up. They provide just about everything I need to run a great desktop distro.
talshiar:/home/peter # smart channel --show [rpm-sys] type = rpm-sys name = RPM System
[Opensuse mirror] type = yast2 name = opensuse_mirror baseurl = http://mirrors.kernel.org/opensuse/distribution/10.2/repo/oss/
[guru] type = yast2 name = Guru 3rd party package repository baseurl = http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/misc/suser-guru/rpm/10.2
[X11:XGL] type = rpm-md name = Repository for Xgl and related packages that give your Desktop some bling (openSUSE_10.2) baseurl = http://software.opensuse.org/download/X11:/XGL/openSUSE_10.2/
[Mirror non-oss] type = yast2 name = mirror-non-oss baseurl = http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/ftp.opensuse.org/pub/opensuse/distributio...
[packman] type = rpm-md name = packman baseurl = ftp://packman.links2linux.org/pub/packman/suse/10.2/
[smart] type = rpm-md name = Guru smart repository priority = 10 baseurl = http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/misc/suser-guru/smart/repo/10.2
If you use smart, add these channels (use the command 'smart channel --show' to check them, you should be able to do a 'smart --gui' then select some interesting software in the Productivity/Multimedia/Sound section. Don't forget mplayer and the w32 codecs!
Good luck
Cheers
Pete
YES! It needed a reboot after uninstalling Audacity but now working. Thanks a lot. :) Still think Debians apt is better. But may hang around Suse for a while. -- John K Masters - User #417400 in the Linux Counter http://counter.li.org/ No trees were killed in the creation of this message.
