Hi,
--I'm nubee to puppy as well as linux. I'm using Lucid Puppy 5.2.8 from live CD, using lupu save file.
--I want to install Ardour n Jack. There r no .pet/sfs package for these softwares.
--There r dotpup(jack)/lucid lynx(both) package avillable. I've installed dotpuphandler-0.0.4-2.pet to use .pup packages. Tried to install JACK-Qjackctl.pup but it didn't work.
--Installed "qjackctl_0.3.4-0ubuntu4_i386.deb + ardour_2.8.6-1_i386.deb" for lucid lynx. When clicking the menu items nothing is happening as I've clicked nothing.
Please help me.

Hi escape!

Actually I'm linux noob as well, but I'm curious by nature, so I tried to find out what can be done with this Ardour n Jack stuff.
Hope this will help you.

Here are steps I made to establish these apps.
(Everything was done with Lucid Puppy 5.2.8 clean frugal install with 512MB lupusave.2fs)


0. Enter Puppy Package manager -> Configure package manager -> check Ubuntu repositories -> OK -> restart PPM

1. Type ardour into 'find' field, will find ardour_2.8.6-1 -> click on it -> Examine dependencies -> Download-and-install selected packages -> Download packages, OK and so on...

2. Type qjack into 'find' field, will find qjackctl_0.3.4 -> click on it -> Examine dependencies -> Download-and install selected packages -> Download and so on...

3. RESTART PPM!!! *

4. Type libjack into 'find' field, will find libjack0.118+svn3796 -> click on it -> Install libjack... -> and so on...

5. Type libgmp into 'find' field, will find libgmp3c_4.3.2+dfsg -> click on it -> Install... -> and so on...

6. Run Ardour from Menu -> Multimedia -> Ardour GTK2

* Step 3 is necessary, because without restarting PPM will find completely different package: "libjackasyn0_0.11" instead of "libjack0.118+svn3796"... Strange...


As you can see it works, but I cannot guarantee that all functions are ok - I never fiddled with these apps before...

Greetings!

Thank you for helping me. But 3 points.
1. Till I can't connect to net from puppy. (Ref: can't connect topic in the sub-sub category 'wireless' within the sub category'network' within hardware.)
2. I've downloaded all 4 lucid lynx .deb packages. Installed them in your order by clicking on them n clicking the OKs. But the result is still the same.

Thank you all for your help.
You guys are grrrrreat !!!
I've posted my net topic to
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=74203
on the next day of this one, is it not the right section for the topic? If not please guide me to find one.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I've an old 32 bit PC with only 512m of DDR RAM from which 32m gone to video sharing. So the remaining effective RAM is only 480m. Puppy Studio 3.3 needs min 512m to run. I've been primarily attracted to the 80m ram feature of Lucid Puppy 5.2.8. which runs on my PC with a blazing speed really! Ubuntu 10.10 doesn't runs on my PC...... erm....... OK........ It runs but takes only 45min (minutes, not seconds; Win XP SP3 2.5 min, Puppy 30 sec after finding lupu save file on HDD) to bootup.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I've heard that some distro called 'dyne:bolic ' (possibly not the newer version which is 1.6G DVD release, I'm talking 'bout 680m CD release) needs only 64m to run n with a RT kernel.

Hi escape.

I sent you PM regarding Ardour, but it's still in my outbox.
I hope that you at least visit this forum as a guest sometimes.
I didn't want to post this as 'public', because I doubt it could be useful for someone else, too.

Anyway, if you're still intrested setting up Ardour:
Since I still have all these files (Ardour & Jack + deps = 49 files), I made an archive of them and temporarily uploaded here:
[EDIT: dead link removed by me - SFR]
Just click on downloaded archive, extract all files and install one by one.
But again - I can hope only that everything will be 100% accurate.
It would be better if you install this stuff on clean instance of Puppy (puppy pfix=ram) first, just to see if everything works.
If something will go wrong, you won't need to uninstall them one by one (believe me - it's a nightmare )

Let me know when you'll download it, then I'll remove it.
But try to make it before 29 Dec, because the link will expire that day anyway (it's a "nice feature" of ADrive non-premium account ).

Greetings!

Yes it's true, that I access everyday as guest from my ***kin mobile.

Just downloaded n installed Ardour*.pet, it's working partially (because I didn't downloaded Jack). I'm sure that after RSH's jack*.pet ardour'll run perfectos.
Don't know that due to settings of my browser or something first few lines of RSH's download page is showing in Italian/German language.

The link above, posted by RSH, leads to German subsection of this forum.
And there are links to MediaFire site - you downloaded Ardour from there, so what is the problem with downloading Jack?
Direct link to RSH's Jack .pets: http://www.mediafire.com/?66qbhr51etstp

Escape, have you looked at Menu -> Multimedia -> mhWaveEdit audio recorder/editor? It is surprisingly competent at editing all kinds of audio files and saving them as other kinds of files.
