On the help file, I want to lengths to get the app internal paths
patched to use fedora standard locations for the help files. This seems
to work on F9, both help and license are correctly shown. Is that the
ones you are having trouble with on your rawhide machine ?
Yes, and the help
browser says:
Unable to follow the link "/usr/share/doc/rakarrack/html/help.html" - No such
file or directory.
The content is in /usr/share/doc/rakarrack-0.2.0/html/, so your patch isn't
in effect on rawhide.
Can you normally disconnect a jack stream from a live application and
not cause trouble ?
It depends on what you call "trouble". I expect an
error dialog, but not
hanging/crash of an application. I remember routing sound via gnuitar to
audacity and error dialogs were all I've got.
I did wonder whether rakarrack authors did this for a reason
- like the contrasting colours being easy to see when not really seated
at the computer, but in guitar playing position...
It simply looks better on their
screens :) I'm on a GNOME desktop using
Darklooks GTK+ theme, which FLTK tries to use to some extent (and fails). I've
tried providing it with a default rakarrack.prefs.db, but it won't fix my
problem completely, as they apparently use some background colour from theme
for foreground text. They are apparently developing this app on a
black-on-white desktop and want it to be in reverse. Not a greatest desktop
integration I say :)
Do you have much experience with jack and/or apps using jack ?
The reason I ask, is a setting up jack document suggested the use of say
qjackctl to start and connect the jack streams is generally required
Other
JACK-aware apps try to implement their own GUIs which are more
user-friendly and make qjackctl redundant in simple two-app setups. rakarrack
is no different, only it implements the GUI only for sinks for its output :)
So rakarrack connects to system output by default. I'd rather expect it to
connect to input and wait for me to tell it where to output, but maybe it's
just me :)
And cool, thank for trying it out Lam.
My pleasure and a realy
fine app :)
