OpenSUSE Multimedia :: Tapping Instead Of Packman For Cecilia / Csound?
Feb 25, 2011
I downloaded it from packman and it's not working. I tried loading some old projects from when I was working Cecilia in Xandros, but they don't load. I tried loading .wav and .aiff files, but they don't load. Unfortunately, this app is useless, but it worked perfectly in Xandros (which is useless). Is there a particular repository I should be tapping instead of packman for Cecilia/Csound? Maybe this app is just plain outdated.
I have these supposed missing 64 bit libs for everything on my main computer. I keep getting the following type messages whilst trying to get things working on a fresh 11.3 install on my test box. All these 64 bit things were installed on it before I wiped it and did a fresh install. I got it when I installed the codecs for gstreamer/kaffeine as well but went ahead and installed. Where did the 64 bit stuff go? I even changed packman mirrors.
I've noticed the Packman mplayer's ffvorbis doesn't seem to be working on 11.2 (x86)-any vorbis seems to be decoded as very quiet noise that roughly matches the sound that ought to be made. Audio output (-ao) doesn't make any difference, and I've the same problem on three different machines. Xine, vlc, ffplay, etc. all work, as does -afm tremor (the reference decoder) with mplayer. The verbose output from mplayer seems to be the same between these systems and an older 11.0 system with a not-very-recently-upgraded version of mplayer. Unfortunately, packman does not keep old versions of packages, and compiling mplayer is somewhat of a chore, so it is not immediately easy to test an old version of MPlayer on 11.2 for me.
I'm using the samples from Vorbis.com: Music to test with, so I assume there is nothing peculiar about the files.
Is anyone successfully using current (1.0rc2_r29796) Packman MPlayer to play either vorbis .oggs or video with vorbis audio on 11.2? If so, was it a fresh install or an upgrade system? Architecture? Etc.-I've run out of machines to easily test on, and it doesn't work on any of them.
I realize that this is better-addressed to the Packman mailing list, but very few users seem to read it, and for whatever reason, the packagers never seem to have any problems with their own packages (even when they are clearly broken for many others); so I thought I would give it a try here first.
I have to keep changing back to Packman packages because updates changes vendor all the time....is there a way to switch to Packman packages and have it stay that way? Any zypper settings?
I run XBMC 10.1 (packman version) on openSUSE 11.4 x86_64. After a normal package update (zypper up) last weekend, I can't play none of my DVD folders (VIDEO_TS structure) anymore. When selecting a movie to play nothing happens (XBMC log file message "WARNING: could not find codec parameters for /path_to_movie/VIDEO_TS/VIDEO_TS.IFO"). AVIs still play fine. I reproduced the problem on my laptop too: After the following updates the problem occurs:
I'd like create my own effects and synths and use them in my composition. I googled around and I discovered a lot of language (graphical and not) to create sound and music. But I don't understand if they can be used to create (with wrapper or indirectly) VST FX and instrument. I need to create something that can be impoted in Cubase and having a basic GUI to change its setting and attribute!
I think SuperCollider is cool, but it looks not to create something importable via VST... Am I wrong?
After the updating the synaptics driver in wheezy, I can no longer tap to click. This includes single-finger taps in the center and corners. Here is the relevant section from my xorg.conf
I'd like to ask a way to enable touchpad tapping permanently in gnome. I have installed gsynaptics, it starts up with gnome, but every time I log in, I need to go to Control Center->touchpad and enable tapping manually. In openSUSE 11.3 the default behavior was that if you enabled once, it remains so. Also it would be great that tapping to be enabled by default ( like in Ubuntu ), because not everybody knows how to enable it.
I have updated to 11.4 via changing repos and zypper distribution updating. I can't find audacious plugins and vlc in 11.4 repos. Is it ok if I use 11.3 packman repo?
To all those who hit this after installing 11.3: Enable the tapping function of your touch pad by adding Option "TapButton1" "1" to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-synaptics.conf. then restart X (relogin). It will work with all WMs for which SuSE didn't bother to add a GUI config function/utility (xfce, WMaker, twm/fvwm, etc).
To SuSE: WHY? Why is this disabled by default? Why has a system/HW function to be enabled at WM level?? Why only KDE/Gnome?
I have acer aspire one netbook with synatics ps2 touchpad. It works fine, but I'd like to emulate left button by just pressing somewhere in the touch area (same as it works in windows or ubunntu). I think this is called tapping. How can I configure that? I have been in touchpad settings and management, but I have not found any checkbox helpful. In OS 11.3 I need to press left button next to the touchpad.
well i did a fresh install of opensuse 11.2 64 bit i was trying to install the nvidia repo and packman repo.usually i get this by adding them form community repo's from repo management.but today i am unable to add them. i did not get those repos in the list there.whats might be the problem??
The systems says that it cannot automatically update, so I have to do an Auo�tomatically update. Error details shows:
Code:
PackageKit Error repo-not-available: Failed to download /repodata/repomd.xml from [URL] I press "Start Yast and install updated manually" buttton Enter my root password
And a Window appears displaying:
Code:
ERROR Download Failed: Failed to download /repodata/repomd.xml from http://packman.iu-bremen.de/suse/11.2. History - [AbstractCommand cc:224] URI=http://packman.iu-bremen/suse/11.2/repodata/repomd.xml
I'm having a problem with the Packman repository lately. First, I added the Packman repo using a Germany mirror link. Everything worked fine until I decided to switch the repository URL to the standard Packman one [URL] instead of a mirror.Then I started getting an error while refreshing repositories:
Code:
Error refreshing service Packman Repository (http://packman.inode.at/suse/11.3/packman.repo): Parse error: repoindex.xml[1] Document is empty
Quite frustratingly, for some reason zypper has made the Packman repo invisible and I can't see it anywhere (not in Yast Software Repositories or in the /etc/zypp/repos.d folder. Yet, it still tries to use that repository when refreshing, and obviously gives me an error in the process. how to completely remove all traces of this Packman repo from my system so I can start anew? (aside from an OS reinstall?)
this is in part a *****. The Yast2 firewall interface is inferior. Firestarter and Guarddog are much better - but they are not in the packman list of stuff you can install because you like it better. How many of you care to offer an opinion as to why these other firewall apps are NOT packaged for openSUSE installation?
I've just done a clean install of OS 11.2 x86_64, KDE 4.3.1, and got the following message from RPM while installing multimedia support files from Packman using zypper on the command line:
Code: warning: /var/cache/zypp/packages/ftp.skynet.be-suse/noarch/rpmkey-packman-0.3.8-1.pm.1.1.noarch.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 9a795806 Similar messages were coming up while installing other packages through Yast, and I'm wondering what the issue is. All of the messages were about the "key ID" at the end of the example line. (Everything is working so I'm not sure if this is a problem or not.)
I'd like to make a local repo of Packman openSUSE 11.2 x86_64 repo. Should I download all of the following folders? And what will be an approximate size of this download?
I know the packman people don't pay attention to these forums. How do you request they update to Deluge 1.3.0 which is the current stable version for 11.3? Where do you go that they pay attention to?
I don't know how to package this myself so really don't need to be told how to do it.
It seems that 11.1 is not supported anymore. Can you confirm that ?I know, i need time to test a new system to replace it.Meanwhile, i try to update the packman packages and it cannot.It says :error: /var/cache/zypp/packages/Packman/.../somethin.rpm : Header V4 RSA/SHA1 signature: BAD, key ID 1abd1afb
Tried about every repo, listed on Additional package repositories - openSUSE but all give the same permission denied problem on some repom.xml and fail to add the repo.I want to install lame, on suse 11.0.
Okay I finally decided to install openSUSE and I have a few questions. First and biggest, how do I add the packman repository as one repo? and will doing so add tumbleweed?
This has been happening for about a week. When I run the updater applet (or when it runs on its own), I get the error: PackageKit Error repo-not-available: File '/repodata/repomd.xml' not found on medium [URL]..
I'm new to opensuse, just installed 11.2 and added the packman repository to the software repositories list, and now when i open the yast software manager there are about a dozen selected packages to install, mostly related to multimedia like ffmpeg ,faac,faad and python-beanutils. I didn't want that, why does it happen? and how can i disable it?
When I try to apply the latest updates on my 11.3 system, I get the following Warning. I think this is because I did the "switch system packages" to Packman after I installed it. What is the recommended solution?
