How are you starting audacity? (In reply to comment #1) > How are you starting audacity? First with complete KDE session, but I tried it also with Fluxbox. It is a normal user: uid=1000(tobi) gid=100(users) groups=100(users),6(disk),7(lp),10(wheel),18(audio),19(cdrom),27(video),35(games),80(cdrw),85(usb),104(svnusers),250(portage),1002(plugdev),1005(vboxusers),1010(scanner) Here is the konsole output: [10:05:43]|[tobi@laptop]|~ $audacity bash: aoss: command not found Thank you! You must have some sort of shell wrapper script installed in your $PATH, named 'audacity' and which tries to use the obsolete aoss wrapper. This wrapper didn't come from the audacity ebuild! The output of which audacity will tell you where the wrapper is (it won't be /usr/bin/audacity, my bet is /usr/local/bin/). equery b $(which audacity) will confirm that it doesn't belong to the audacity ebuild. If you run the command /usr/bin/audacity from a terminal, Audacity will load just fine without the alsa-oss package installed. If you remove the wrapper script you don't need then everything will work fine. This is almost certainly a configuration issue on end user's system and should be closed. Closing as invalid since this is probably a local system configuration issue. See comment #3 to try to debug the situation on your local setup. Hello, you are right, it is a misconfigured system. But it is very strange: [10:40:36]|[tobi@laptop]|~ $equery b $(which audacity) * Searching for /usr/bin/audacity ... media-sound/audacity-2.0.0 (/usr/bin/audacity) [10:40:55]|[tobi@laptop]|~ $audacity bash: aoss: command not found [10:40:59]|[tobi@laptop]|~ $/usr/bin/audacity ALSA lib pcm.c:2217:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.rear ALSA lib pcm.c:2217:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.center_lfe ALSA lib pcm.c:2217:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM cards.pcm.side ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:957:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) The dmix plugin supports only playback stream Expression 'stream->playback.pcm' failed in 'src/hostapi/alsa/pa_linux_alsa.c', line: 3875 Expression 'stream->playback.pcm' failed in 'src/hostapi/alsa/pa_linux_alsa.c', line: 3875 Expression 'stream->playback.pcm' failed in 'src/hostapi/alsa/pa_linux_alsa.c', line: 3875 As you can see, I have no wrapper installed, audacity directly does not work, starting it with absolute path is working... In all my $PATH is no file called audacity except the one installed by the ebuild. In fact it is no big issue as I can start it via ALT+F2, but it is weird and not so easy as an unwanted wrapper. |
