Hi Levi:

  I just built Swami 0.9.0 without hitting the snag you got, so I'm no
help there. I did find that Swami doesn't seem to be friendly towards
ALSA 0.9.0rc6, I had to accept AUTO for the audio driver and OSS &
/dev/midi00 for MIDI input. It didn't like /dev/snd/midiC0D0 or
/dev/snd/pcmC0D0p at all. With the AUTO and OSS settings it works like a
charm. Not that that's a fat lot of help for you... :(

  Btw, are you trying to build 0.9.0 or the pre1 version of Swami ?

Best regards,
