concerning gigedit: I suppose you need libgig, perhaps liblscp and maybe the linuxsampler installed. when I say you need that, I say, that especially with the libraries you might need some kind of development headers. If you install the linuxsampler package from source, it's easy. then you must have a look which graphical toolkit is needed by gigedit. Get that and the corresponding development packages. So does it use gnome (GTK), QT, KDE-something or direct Xforms. One thing about LS: Even I could get it to compile and got it working, with sound and midi. Saying even: I don't have any GUI toolkits and only jack and alsa installed. None of the other audio/midi drivers. I use LS via simple telnet. I loaded some nice big and small free and commercial instruments in it and played them happily. Even recorded them with another jack-audio-app. I think on the linuxsampler website they mention the dependencies, the succession in which to compile the packages, you can download at their place. Only thing I noticed: Dont use make -j 2. just use: make or gmake If you decide to compile from cvs/svn then first do: make -f Makefile.cvs then continue with the usual. All the best! Please give some feedback!
