hi list,
some times ago i installed 'dssi-vst-0.4' from source and i was able to
run vst-plugins with a command like:

vsthost /home/nowhiskey/vst/Syntar.dll

now this state changed, if i try to run that command, the plugin gui
will appear in the screen, but than close again:

nowhiskey@email-addr-hidden:~$ vsthost /home/nowhiskey/vst/Syntar.dll

the only thing i changed here in the meantime, was updating alsa to
v1.0.14-rc3, so i am not sure, but i think that this is some
alsa-uncompability problem.

jackd is v0.103.0 and wine is v0.9.34, but the same issue, if i
recompile to wine v0.9.28.

this is all on 2.6.21.1-rt3 and 2.6.20.1-rt8 kernel.

i am able to run ardorvst pretty well here, and the command 'fst
/home/nowhiskey/vst/Syntar.dll' also is working well here.

another information, i tried recompiling the 'dssi-vst', but i get an
error in make:

nowhiskey@email-addr-hidden:~/software/nove/vsthost/dssi-vst-0.4$ make

if anyone has an idea of what the problem here is, or if anyone needs
more additional information about the setup here, please let me know!

cheers,
doc
