Carlos, > liblrdf: error - - file '/root/.ardour//sfdb' open failed - No such This indicates that no sfdb [sound file database] file exists for root. It is possible that one exists for you as a user, perhaps you can locate it in /home/$USER/.ardour/ and put it in your /root/.ardour/ folder if you want to run Ardour as root. Incidentally, SFDB is a seperate application, and can be found here: http://www.equalarea.com/paul/las.html Just in case you want to, oh-I-dunno, maybe read some documentation on it??? Once again, recompiling your kernel with capabilties should get rid of all those problems. The only other hitch I can see is if you have no sfdb file as a user either, in which case you would be advised to get Paul's sfdb tarball and check the docs for the proper format of how to make one by hand. More help on this topic can be gotten from the Ardour list, where I just pulled up this link to SFDB. more good luck, D. -- derek holzer ::: http://www.umatic.nl ---Oblique Strategy # 64: "Don't stress one thing more than another"
