(old)Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

On linux mint and debian, I use this simple audio-recorder program all the time, to record streams or things playing on my computer.

Trying to get it working here on my puppy linux box. Not in the repos, not in the .pet folder for bionicpup, Does anyone know where I can get a .deb or .pet file for that which will work?

Thanks...

What is the name of the utility you were using? cheers!

mhWaveEdit is a very powerful audio recording and editing program that comes in every Puppy that I know of.

You can get a deb package from the audio-recorder web site.
https://launchpad.net/~audio-recorder/+ ... ubuntu/ppa

Go down the page to Overview of published packages.
Just above to right is view package details.
Click on that.
Next page.
Click on audio-recorder-2.1.3-bionic
Under package files
Listed is deb packages for bionic 32bit or 64bit.

Example:
audio-recorder_2.1.3-bionic_amd64.deb installed in Bionicpup64 8.0

audio-recorder for bionic puppy linux 8?

Not enough information.
32bit or 64bit version?

Thank you guys, I found this site before but didn't somehow realize you have to click on details there to get to the actual deb files. Doh! Its installed and working now thank you guys!

Yeah; Launchpad takes some figuring out, initially. I've been using it to download stuff for years, but you do have to jump through a few hoops..!

Once you land on any PPA's main page, ya gotta look for that "View package files", over on the right, in small print!

Click on that, and another page opens, listing all the releases the app has been built for. Then, click on the 'twistie' beside the build you want, to reveal the packages for download.

We're not interested in that .dsc file; that's purely for the 'live' update mechanism within the Ubuntu package manager. Wouldn't work for the PPM anyway.....unless somebody can figure out a way to make Ubuntu's package 'diff' system work with Puppy.

You'll still need to track down deps, of course; integration with Ubuntu's package manager would usually pull them in automatically, but we don't have that luxury in this instance. Extract it, and rt-clk on the main binary->List DD; that'll tell you what it needs to function.
