I've been down this path myself trying to get this to work, and realized that maybe it's just best for me to pass on trying out these couple of new audio apps. Like most things I feel that this will be worked out somewhere down the road. > What I don't know is if it would be worth the effort given that fc4 > appears to have the proper versions.

And when you get that done there will be a whole bunch of new programs based on the lastest and greatest libraries that won't be able to be compiled on FC4? This has been happening for years, just a fact of life in the linux lane(which I prefer over the "it just works, trust us" software lines). Anyway, I hope you can work this out. But I sure wouldn't lose any sleep over it if I had to deal with it. Tracey.
