no I tested all my apps and they all work (except for baudline) with
ALSA and Jack<br>
ALSA is working fine<br>
but removing the ALSA OSS emu layer from the kernel broke how
baudline (and now Pd) worked in Linux when not using Jack<br>
<br>
and I agree a clean install is the only way to go -- I never do an
upgrade in Ubuntu - I learned my lesson the hard way back in 2006
and have never done an upgrade again :)<br>

<div>p.s: I'm using 10.10 as well (although I never upgrade, but
typically install new version on top) and alsa is working with
pd fine. Please check if alsa is really working ok, alsaconf,
alsamixer and all those typical alsa tricks.<br>

I am now just getting back into pd mode since Sept<br>
<br>
and I just recently upgraded Ubuntu from 9.04 -> 10.10<br>
<br>
which needed a kernel broadcom wifi driver tweak<br>
<br>
I installed the 'PD-0.42.5-extended-20101205' using the .deb
package<br>
(because it works perfectly on my Dell mini9 (which I use as
a test sandbox))<br>
<br>
I tested all my Linux audio apps on Ubuntu 10.10<br>
(my config is in the sig at the end of this email)<br>
and every one checked out OK<br>
except for baudline which wasn't working with ALSA<br>
<br>
the reason it wasn't working with ALSA - as related to me by
the developer - was that<br>
'Ubuntu 10.10 removed kernel ALSA OSS emulation' but
baudline does work with Jack'<br>
<br>
<br>
so I'm having a lot of problems getting Pd set up the way it
was on my 9.04 system<br>
which was working fine up until my upgrade<br>
<br>
<br>
I have a few questions related to problems that are causing
much confusion:<br>
<br>
problem #1:<br>
===========<br>
no audio via ALSA<br>
<br>
- I open the Audio Settings panel, point my settings to my
USB card, click save, apply<br>
- open and start the Test Audio patch<br>
- there is no audio<br>
- the console doesn't say anything about trying to find
or connect to an audio device<br>
- re-open the Audio settings panel and the settings are
all switched back to my 'nanokontrol'<br>
<br>
the ~/.pdextended file says:<br>
noaudioin: True<br>
noaudioout: True<br>
<br>
I try the same procedure with Jack and there is audio<br>
and ALSA midi also seems to work fine<br>
<br>
is there a problem with ALSA and Pd now due to the removal
of ALSA OSS emulation?<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
problem #2:<br>
===========<br>
Libraries are not loading<br>
<br>
- all the libraries that were installed with 0.42.5 are not
found even though they are listed in the .pdextended file<br>
- I read on the Pd FAQ page that '.pdextended' is the file
where all the paths are stored<br>
but I was using Pd extended in my studio and all my paths (I
think) were in the '.pdsettings' file which supposedly was
used only by the pd plain vanilla version<br>
<br>
- was there a change made to the settings file name between
Sept and now?<br>
- and is there a simpler way of re-constituting my paths
other than doing it by hand?<br>
<br>
can someone point me to something that can bring me up to
date on changes since Sept?<br>
a change log or something?<br>
<br>
any/all help is very appreciated!!<br>
<br>
oh yeah, happy new year!<br>
