Dear Sigmund, I know this is a kludge, but you could try to symlink libtk.so and libtcl.so to any old lib that timidity does not use and see what happens, so long as you do not call the tk interface. If you call timidity with -ig, it might actually only load the gtk business and not really check whether the tcl and tk libs are the real ones. As you don't have the tk and tcl libs installed, you might want to give this little "cheat' experiment a try. I would be interested in the result. With kind regards, vovchik |

Bad news. I made a symlink and got a new error. Good try

Dear Sigmund, Thanks for trying. Since slang is another one of those interface options, as is motif, I think creating more of those symlinks for slang and the other missing libs would do the trick, since the tk business only produced a missing version warning. I know the solution is very "dicey", but I think it will work. With kind regards, vovchik PS. "ldd `which timidity` | grep found" will show which libs timidity is looking for. I think you know that, but others might not. |

vovchik I made fake symlinks for all my missing dependencies before posting my previous post.

Hi Sigmund,
I got the same missing libtk.so libtcl.so error; have fixed them (acc. to vovchik explaination) picking libtk.8.5.so.o and libtcl.8.5.so.o in a previous install of timidity.2.10.pet (in /usr/lib/), copying them to the 2.13 version installation, symlinking them to libtk.so and libtcl.so. I got another lib missing sounds like libarts... got it onstalled looking in deian packages contents and undeb it under / . On another test I tried to install timidity2.13-sc.tar.gz downloaded from slackware, in puppy4.13, just install the missing lib (see above) - seems to got it installed but when launching # timidity -iA -B2,8 -Os1l -s 44100 & for interfacing wiyj NtEd.1.5.10 it seems looking for a timidity.cfg file and not being compatible with Alsa1.0.16, maybe am I wrong ? (I"m just a newbie..) see here http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?search_id=210055961&t=36124 Hope this helps To vovchik Hi vovchik, many thanks for your kind reply - sorry! I did have time as yet to try the GUI you proposed, but I hope to get it...! I'll let you know. Cheers Charlie |

Hi, installed on Puppy413 (yes version four one three) TiMidity++2.13.2-tk.pet alsa-plugins-1.0.18-i486-1as.tgz I get the following error:
I do not understand as /usr/lib/alsa-lib/libasound_module_pcm_pulse.so is well present. perhaps the .2-tk in TiMidity++2.13.2-tk.pet indicates it is a different version.....? I'll try the one given at top of the post Cheers Charlie[/u] |

Hi,
I uninstalled TiMidity++2.13.2-tk.pet, restarted the PC, and installed TiMidity++2.13.0.pet above. Got this error while typing
note : " -Os1l " is -capital O one lowercase L this command line for setting midi interface for using in NtEd see more here http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=36124&sid=4ee5ebf7df7d4876b401fb2dae621b66 Looking at Alsa in Menu/Multimedia/Alsa mixer Alsa is no longer working I got the message
I believe some alsa files are somewhat corrupted or missing ...perhaps due to successive install and uninstall. I wonder now whether re-installing Puppy413... or reinstalling Alsa but I do not know where to find an alsa.pet.. many thanks for eventual advices Cheers Charlie |

I'm running Puppy 4.2.1 over an old Win98 tower (frugal install), and I have TiMIDIty++ installed there with a full patch set. Is it possible to simply install the above .pet and just point it to the existing patch set? (I know, I can also just copy the patch set to my pup-save file, but where's the fun in that? )

The way I have this package configured, there is a symlink named /usr/share/timidity/current that points at the current patch set. Then there is a /usr/share/timidity/timidity.cfg file that is set to include the /usr/share/timidity/current/timidity.cfg file. So as long as your patch set has a timidity.cfg file inside, you should be able to just point the "current" link at it. Otherwise, you could edit the /usr/share/timidity/timidity.cfg file by hand to match whatever your setup is. You would probably need to configure Puppy to mount the other pup_save.2fs file on bootup so that you can access the patch set. Adding something like this to /etc/rc.local would do the trick:
That would mount <PATH_TO_pup_save.2fs> on /mnt/other_pup_save. Or you could move the patches out of the other save file onto the drive itself and have both files point at it there. Or do you mean you want to access those patches from a separate computer? In that case, you would need to set up a network share of some sort. A couple years ago I tried to get NFS to work, but I didn't really know what I was doing. But I did manage to get sshfs to work, which lets you mount a drive over a normal SSH connection, without installing anything special on the remote end. And I remember having Samba working at one point. _________________ Between depriving a man of one hour from his life and depriving him of his life there exists only a difference of degree. --Muad'Dib  |

No, it's on the same tower, on the base HD (where I also have the frugal install files stored). I thought it'd be silly to have the whole ~50MB (if I remember correctly) set stored twice on the same hard drive, though.

just rename /usr/share/timidity => /usr/share/timidityold (in case of emergency) and make a symlink with your timidity directory on your dd where your installed timidity.cfg is => "/usr/share/timidity" test it, if it run ok just delete timidityold ! for me minishom is just fine ...and only 4455 k ! perhaps better way deleting your old install

Hmm... maybe someone who knows gtkdialog (I sure don't...  ) could put together a simple GUI for this - just a window that calls timidity, shows the name of the loaded MIDI, and has a "Stop" button to kill the timidity process.
Heck, I don't know if gtkdialog windows have drag-and-drop, either... so I wouldn't know whether such a setup could allow for dragging a MIDI onto the window (in which case it'd probably kill the active timidity process, and call timidity again with the new song). Other than that, though, the timidity pet still works great for me on 4.3.1, where I've been using it for a while. I just have to remember to keep a pprocess window open.  Thanks again, Pizzasgood.

with that pet, just right click a midifile set run action and enter the command
so each click of a midifile open ncurse interface than can be stop with key "q" ans so more
if you use other pet than have other interface you can use timidity -ig "$1" for instance for have a gui _________________ le max avec le min |
