[opensuse] Rosegarden for SuSE 10.2
I have a feeling I am really slipping. I have been tinkering with SuSE since 6.2 and have learned a few things on the way. For a while I hadn't done much and am now just getting back into it with SuSE 10.2. I see a lot has changed. Now that I am really interested in it, I see that Rosegarden is no longer included with the distribution (at least I can't find it). It seems that software management has changed some with new online sources. Here is where I really wish I had the book. Is Rosegarden for SuSE 10.2 available somewhere in a repository? If so, can someone please point me to it? If I have to, I can build from source. If that is the case, are there troubles peculiar to SuSE 10.2 such as needing some package or library. I am a bit hesitant to build from source because I remember reading a recent thread that mentioned that can cause some conflict with the SuSE software management.

Not if you create an rpm, with checkinstall, for instance, and install that. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.

I think it was packman repository that I used to download Rosegarden.

Though I may have eventually found it on my own, your post made the process much easier for me. I think at this point I am starting to better understand the SuSE software management.

If I understand correctly, I would have to have SMART installed to be able to do this. Because I am still struggling to understand just the basic default software management of SuSE 10.2 and because I have seen posts indicating there are problems with SMART, I am not at this point willing to install/use SMART. Perhaps that will come later.
In the process of hunting for Rosegarden, I have stumbled on something called JackLab Audio Distribution at http://jacklab.org/. Since my main purpose for this PC is music, this seems to be a perfect customized SuSE 10.2.

to get that result with smart, yes, but to get the package, all you need to do is go to packman and download it. You can install it locally with "rpm -Uvh <package-name>", or kpackage for a graphical interface, or konqueror for that matter.

The problems were/are not with smart but with zmd.

And the solution is to remove zmd, and any other zmd related package. The easiest way is using YaST. Than you can use Smart or YaST, whatever you like, to add packman and any other repository that you like and than have all in one, but that when you see newer package version don't jump and update, as it may break your system. I have many repositories in the list, but most of them are disabled, to prevent accidental update, and I did that too. It got no problems, but it happened and to prevent problems I enable them just when I need them.

I didn't use JackLab as I'm really not equipped for the music. Internal sound chip with no MIDI output is enough to reproduce MIDI files, but nothing else. Even Rosegarden I installed just to try to help others with problems to get sound out of it :-) BTW, Rosegarden will complain about too low system clock frequency, but it will work, IMHO, fine. -- Regards, Rajko. http://en.opensuse.org/Portal -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
