I'm trying to get a DataVideo DAC-100 DV interface to work as a V4L device so I can get analog video into VLC to stream. I've got vloopback working but I can't get dv4l to compile. I've added the dev packages for all the prerequisites .configure was saying "no" to and that seems to be OK now:
I am trying to compile a MaNGOS Zero server. Everything was going smoothly until the installation instructions Code: ../configure --prefix=/home/youruser/mangoszero --ysconfdir=/home/youruser/mangoszero/etc --enable-cli --enable-ra --datadir=/home/youruser/mangoszero. It tells me that ./configure is not a directory or something around those words. I know that mangoszer is not relevant to Ubuntu but I am pretty sure ./configure should be.
I'm trying to do the simplest thing. Compile XMMS. I navigated to the folder containing the extracted source and ran ./configure. That failed, so I remembered to install the build-essential package.
After that, I continued and got this output:
It said I didn't have glib installed, whatever that is. I did "apt-get install glib" and it told me it couldn't find the package called "glib". I thought, "Yeah, that seems a little too broad of a package name".
So then I went to Synaptic and did a search for "libglib" and noticed I already have libglib2.0-0 installed, as well as libglib2.0-data and libglib-perl.
How can I get this to to work correctly? I know the process should be ./configure, make, and then make-all, but I get stuck on the ./configure step.
I have downloaded the latest gnome commander source code from the gnome commander home page. Following the instructions in the readme I have extracted it from the tar ball and changed to the top level directory of the source code. I execute ./configure and get a bunch of "checking" results.

I find Makefile.am and Makefile.in present in the directory. I generally install from deb packages. Still, I don't think it should be this hard to compile a package given the seemingly simple directions provided.
Ive been using linux for a few months now and every now and again i come accross a program that doesnt have a rpm package but says that it can be installed on Fedora using source. I'm familiar with build essentials and the following commands:-
tar xzvf package.tar.gz cd package ./configure make make install
but from what i have read fedora uses a differnet compiler. I'm trying to install Buddi budget manager and the ./configure command doesnt work, which im guessing is because it doesnt have a configure file? Can anyone confirm how to compile from source and whether there are any tutorials specific to fedora.
Attempting to compile an application that is not located in any of the repos yet for 11.3 64 bit. I have downloaded the appropriate src and untarred it. However, when I attempt to run the ./configure command here is the error I receive. checking build system type... Invalid configuration `x86_64-unknown-linux-': machine `x86_64-unknown-linux' not recognized configure: error: /bin/sh ./config.sub x86_64-unknown-linux- failed
I have made sure that I have all kernel-headers packages installed and am unsure as how to proceed. I tried using the command "./configure --build=x86_64" and then receive an error stating that the "SYSTEM IS NOT SUPPORTED" and continued errors stating that gcc is not installed, eve though it is.
I'm currently using Debian Testing with Debian Multimedia Sid repos. The current Mplayer (3:1.0~rc4+svn20110308-0.0) seems to be broken - I can't encode AAC to AC3 on-the-fly anymore. I'd like to compile the latest snapshot or SVN version, but what is the easiest way to compile it with the same options as the one in debian-multimedia.org?
how-to compile from source; based on this post [URL]with some new hints and modified patches. This works on Ubuntu (Gnome version) without the official repository version of Amarok installed.

trying to install the latest version of Minitube on my 64 bit Ubuntu 10.04 installation. I thought adding a PPA would let me upgrade from version 0.9 to the latest version but it didn't seem to work. So now I'm trying to install from source (I've never done this before so I'm a complete noob when it comes to compiling). I checked the install instructions in the source which reads:
Code:
# Build instructions ## Prerequisites
To compile Minitube you need Qt >= 4.5 installed.On a Debian or Ubuntu system just type:
Windows and Mac users can get the Qt libraries from:
[URL]
Compiling on Linux is fairly easy. Just run:
qmake and then make
Beware of the Qt3 version of qmake! If things go wrong try running qmake-qt4 instead.
## Running
Just type:
./build/target/minitube
I installed the prerequisite packages,but just to be safe I wanted to run the ./configure command, but when I try to I get the "bash: ./configure: No such file or directory" message. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? Also, based on what I've read, I should have to enter some kind of install command in order to install the compiled binary but the instructions make no mention of this.
Configure: error: Unable to locate a suitable configuration of wxWidgets v2.4.x. The currently available configurations are listed below. If necessary, either install the package for your distribution or download the 2.4.x version of wxWidgets from [URL]. To help configure find the right version set WX_CONFIG to point to it. wxWidgets 2.5.x and 2.6.x are NOT supported! But I thought I installed widgets 2.4?
I am a happy Ubuntu user, I run it on all of my servers.
A few days ago I setup a new slice, and now I want to use it to convert ULAW (μ-law) WAV files into MP3's.
If I would only install LAME this would give me an 'Unsupported data format: 0x0007'. Because LAME doesn't support ulaw encoded wav's only Linear PCM's.
I have read that one can use the Libsndfile and use it with LAME --fileio=libsndfile (or something like that) when 'MAKE'-ing Lame. In this case because of the additional encoding library sndfile Lame can read and encode the ulaw into mp3.
I have also read another solution is to first convert the ulaw-wav into a pcm-wav with sox, and afterwards convert the output into an mp3 with lame. This seems to be a lot of extra system resources.
I am looking for a hands on tutorial howto wget, compile, install and run LAME with Libsndfile on Ubuntu Lucid (commandline only) so I can encode incoming ulaw files into mp3's?
I want to encode video content with mencoder and libvpx codec. I have libvpx installed on my machine and I can encode with libvpx using ffmpeg. My OS is Ubuntu 10.10, 64bit. I downloaded fresh mplayer/mencoder from SVN repository. If I configure mplayer/mencoder without any explicit enabled features using:
I am trying to compile OpenCV 2.0 with ffmpeg (with x264) support on my Ubuntu 11.04 64-bit machine. (Since I want to use the binaries provided by other developers, I have to use opencv 2.0 version)
I followed the guide from: [URL] to compile x264 and ffmpeg manually, and succeeded.
Then I followed the guide in the INSTALL file provided by the OpenCV 2.0 package. I use CMake to configure and generate them, and use "make" command to try compiling. However, I got the following error report, which haunted me for almost half a week.
Has successfully compiled Handbrake from source and got it to run? I've been trying to get this working for a while now, and everything I find on the interwebs is for Debian 7.6, and it seems as though things have changed a bit and those suggestions don't work.
I get this error when I try to configure it

Actually, it's recommended to compile (and build) wine 32bits. But, it's possible to build Wine in 64bits and 32bits with the same sources. The solution is explain in this page : [url]Building a shared WoW64 setup.
With this solution, if Wine 64bits is installed on your system, you can create a 32bits wineprefix by this command :
To use this command, you must to compile and make wine twice in 2 differents folder, like explain :
How to compile and make twice without problem in the "rules" files in the debian folder when i want to build a package?
The sysytem I use is Debian Squeeze. what's wrong but jackd2 from debian official repositories does not work with alsa (I have alsa-base, alsa-tools, libaudio-dev, libaudiofile-dev and libasound2-dev installed). Now I downloaded fresh jackd2 source from sourceforge and when I try to "./waf -configure" it it says that there is no alsa package or it's too old in the system and configures itself without alsa support.
I am thinking about alternatives for VirtualBox (which i like, but the Oracle-story is making me think). After this thread: viewtopic.php?f=10&t=56314 I downloaded the vmware-player (manual, not with the download-manager ) and installed it.

I'm installing ffmpeg with libavfilter using this guide but i can not get the movie filter to compile when passing --enable-avfilter-lavf to ffmpeg i'm using libavfilter r5935 and the test copy of ffmpeg.
I'm new to ubuntu and I decided to try Sonata, but I can't configure MPD. Sonata uses localhost by default but it's already used by Apache. I tried disabling Apache but it still doesn't work. What IP should I use to be able to use Apache and Sonata in the same time ?
I've been at this for the last hour. I just put a Hauppage WinTV-TVR-1800 into my machine, rebooted and installed MythTV. I set up the card, the video source and the input as well as configured a few random channels. I click WATCH TV in the menu, it goes to a screen saying, "Please Wait....", then it brings me back to the menu. There's no error, is there some sort of log file.
I recently decided to upgrade my old desktop instead of buying a new one. I figured I would go ahead and max out the specs on the motherboard while I was at it. I had a standard AGP slot and the best graphics card I could find for AGP was the Radeon HD 4650 (AGP 1GB GDDR2). So I ordered the parts and went on my merry way.I installed the card and did a fresh install of 9.10, hoping to max perform my "new" system. The card was acting kinda fishy on the live boot and I had to reboot a few times before it magically worked. I got installed etc and when I booted it worked, but it turned out performance was painful. When using Firefox the delay when scrolling down the screen was literally unbearable. No problem right, I used the restricted drivers app to go ahead and install the ATI drivers hoping that it would auto-magically fix things.
System booted but once I logged in the screen would just fill with freezing and garbage so it was impossible to get anything done. I experimented with all three options but this is what ended up being my solution. Download your ATI driver using this site: AMD Graphics Drivers & Software Just select Linux in the OS Select column.
I downloaded camE and camorama in hope of controling my webcam's framerate for skype because right now it's 24-30 which gives me dark video. But if I lower the frame rate to something like 10, the video magically brightens. camE doesn't do anything..like it turns on my webcam and does some ftp..fails..turns of my webcam ..back to normal. Camorama can't connect to my webcame. Cheese, guvideo are successfully able to conect to my webcam and play around with it.What I want to do is edit my /dev/video0 or some file from where I can fix the framerate for skype.
I use Kubuntu 10.10 and I'd like to know what to configure (say in daemon.conf - PulseAudio) to get the best sound quality & the most out of my sound card. By the way, I don't have any sound problems. I just want to get the best results from the built-in speakers & when I connect my laptop to external speakers. I have a Sony VAIO VGN-NR32M laptop.
I have just upgraded to 11.04 and the sound on my skype isn't working...configure my pulseaudio settings.whenever i try opening pulseaudio volume control, it says "Connection failed: Connection refused"
