I first had a 0.109 install from the repo-oss. I upgraded by YaST2 to
0.116 from the Packman Repo and got the same as a lot of people got, see
http://ardour.org/node/2271.

Some steps followed, see

There seems to be a bug for the jack Packman's package since my last
upgrade, that was done with OSS, NON-OSS, UPDATES, PACKMAN and yes, also
VIDEOLAN. I did the upgrade, resp. "update all packeges if newer version
is available" (I'm writing from Lenny, but I guess you know which option
I'm talking about, I don't know the exact words by heard) at 12-14-2008
18:36.

After I've done some installs and deinstalls, I tried to install the
RPM, it might be, that 0.116 was installed again, when I run RPM the
first time, to install Jussi's version, anyway, Suse was broken before.

To avoid a misunderstanding. This is for Jussi's package, am I right?

What wrong with the Packman's package? Is there a way to use this?

He? If you will ignore the links to Ardour and google search,than I'm
the only one. Will you go on with the Linux-Club bashes?

That has broken Suse, read the mails.

Why, you always ignored what I was writing. You can read all messages
here in the LAD mailing list archive.
