Ok, I haven't a lot of experience with trying to run linuxsampler as a
VST, it may be that it just doesn't work. I just thought it might be
that you didn't have it installed in the right place and / or renoise
configured correctly, as it is not immediately apparent how to configure
renoise for VSTs if you haven't done it previously.
I'm doing some work on linuxVSTs and I'm running renoise at the moment,
so if I get some time I'll investigate running linuxsampler and see what
happens (unless someone else can provide the answer first? )
