satelliteuser083 Posted May 4, 2008 Report Share Posted May 4, 2008 I've just installed Audacity into 2007 but it won't start (or, at least, it asks for the language in the box 'Audacity First Run', but then dies). I assume that there's a log somewhere, containing a bit more information on this behaviour; could someone tell me where this is? Thanks.

aphelion Posted May 4, 2008 Report Share Posted May 4, 2008 What about starting it via the konsole, and seeing any messages/info there. (You probably already done that but . . .) The only audacity stuff I can find after just a quick look, is the .audacity-data folder in your home directory, which among other things contains a .cfg file, which may not have been created for you if you didn't get far into the start up., and /usr/share/audacity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
satelliteuser083 Posted May 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2008 No, I hadn't thought of trying the konsole approach , so I did, and got the following: [lawrence@localhost ~]$ audacity /home/lawrence/.gtkrc-2.0:56: Clearlooks configuration option "menuitemstyle" is not supported and will be ignored. /home/lawrence/.gtkrc-2.0:57: Clearlooks configuration option "listviewitemstyle" is not supported and will be ignored. /home/lawrence/.gtkrc-2.0:58: Clearlooks configuration option "progressbarstyle" is not supported and will be ignored. /usr/share/themes/Clearlooks/gtk-2.0/gtkrc:42: Invalid symbolic color 'fg_color' /usr/share/themes/Clearlooks/gtk-2.0/gtkrc:42: error: invalid identifier `fg_color', expected valid identifier cannot write to jackstart sync pipe 4 (Bad file descriptor) jackd: wait for startup process exit failed Expression 'ioctl( stream->capture->fd, SNDCTL_DSP_SETDUPLEX, 0 )' failed in 'src/hostapi/oss/pa_unix_oss.c', line: 1115 Expression 'PaOssStream_Configure( stream, sampleRate, framesPerBuffer, &inLatency, &outLatency )' failed in 'src/hostapi/oss/pa_unix_oss.c', line: 1228 Expression 'paInvalidSampleRate' failed in 'src/hostapi/oss/pa_unix_oss.c', line: 1044 audacity: src/hostapi/oss/pa_unix_oss.c:1122: PaOssStream_Configure: Assertion `component->hostChannelCount > 0' failed. Aborted However, I also get (up to and including) "jackd: wait for startup process exit failed" on my Thinkpad-T42 and Audacity starts on that, so I assume that the problem lies somewhere in the remaining messages. Sadly, these mean absolutely nothing to me; any further tips? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
