I have seen this happen before with other programs and am not sure what it means... But I have downloaded the Audacity version rpm for SuSE 9.1 from the Packman site, and installed (have tried both as root and as user) on my SuSE 9.2 Pro system and noticed 2 initial problems: 1. No icons are created, Audacity doesn't show up anywhere in a menu. 2. When I go off to try and figure out what to run, I find: usr/bin/audacity looks like an executable, it's 8.5Mb... usr/share/audacity a folder with a couple of folders full of libraries or something. usr/share/doc/packages/audacity a folder full of some files, looks like something your supposed to compile manually... ?? should we have to compile the documentation files before use??... Anyway, since there was no icon created, I click on the /usr/bin/audacity file and nothing happens. Well, not exactly accurate. The harddrive starts a flurry of activity, etc. but after about 60 seconds, all that is done and no application opens on the display. Any ideas how I can figure out why Audacity won't run when I click on it's executable? -- ______________________________________________ Check out the latest SMS services @ http://www.linuxmail.org This allows you to send and receive SMS through your mailbox.
