When I was going thru my VST nightmares, I could not get it to run at all...and I was about to jump from the proverbial cliff ! Then Dave Phillips took pity on my feeble, whimpering self...a mere shell of a former true man of persistance... :) I don;t know what your specific problem is...but, here's what we do know; -Any vst-in-linux app is heavily reliant on the version of Wine. But we know for a fact that 20040505 is a working version. It works on my MDK box, and Mark has it working, as do several others here. -Crystal is one of the definate .dll's that does work of the vst's. So does HyperCanvas 1.02. (Not sure if thats what you ultimatley want running here?) - that on your box, something available as a service or thread to root allowing it to run is not available to user... What do you mean when you say "btw - i'm starting jack as normal user ..." ? Is this when you try to run fst as user too? Did you do a Winblows install of the vst application? If so, did you do it as root and not user? I know a full Win install is not needed with for Crystal...but is for Hypercanvas I think. What kernel are you using now? R~
