*FANFARE* Dave...oh Dave...I have news.... :)
So I figured I'd try to run the actual HyperCanvas installer because it
looked like Wine needed a registry entry for the .dll. I tried regsvr32
prior to and it did not work....So I ran the whole installer...it
actually ran all the way thru without a glitch. (still as root)
It got done and i thought "what the hell, we'll try it again" So as
root, I ran jack_fst /usr/local/lib/wine/Hypercanvas.dll {I changed the
case on "c" for ease of entry}..
And ...Violah! The bugger popped up on the screen!!! Has Jack audio
ports and midi port in "connect" window of qjackctl and all!
Is it not amazing how a geek can get so jubilant over a piece of bloody
software!! ;)
I have not had a chance to try running it yet but later tonight I will
"road test" it...
Not sure if I'm all the way there yet but this is a landmark improvement
obviously. Would still like to see if I can run it as user under 2.6.7
with lsm, etc.
Hey...thanks a bloody great bunch for your help thus far Dave! YOur a
trooper!!! And I appreciate your persistence greatly! THis is a first
for me on anything VST~
Cheers,
R~
