Hi Patrick,
I downloaded the source for 0.99.71 and ran ./configure; make; make
install. Looking at the configure.status file I see that the gtk
interface was NOT loaded. Is there a straightforward way to add gtk?
I odn't get an error on the ocmmand line, and it'll play a song file if
I add the filename as an argument; otherwise it just pauses for a second
or two and returns ...finished playing.
I guess the problem is with gtk. If you know how to get it to load,
that'd be a big help. thanks,
matt
ps -- I have tried the debian packages, by the way; but they don't work
for me (maybe b/c I'm running alsa 0.9.rc2).
