I wanted to make something like that for a long time now but wish was never strong enough and there were always some 'more important' things :) But I couldn't get it to work... :( I first tried on my main computer (dell XPS m1530) with Arch on it. Configure script wasn't working. It reports [1]. But inspite of that make went through without problems. SHM is enabled in HAL (at least I think - 'synclient -m 100' works). But when I try to run it it reports [2]. But there is Alps touchpad in it (it is using synaptics driver but it is not made by Synaptics) and maybe that is the reason. Then I tried on Asus Eee 701 with Jolicloud (Ubuntu variant) on it. This time configure script worked, 'synclient -m 100' worked too, but again when I try to run it (./midipoke -x 1 -a), I get the same error [2]. Regards! Igor [1]: ./checkheaders.sh ./checkheaders.sh: line 5: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `)' ./checkheaders.sh: line 23: syntax error: unexpected end of file make: *** [check] Error 2 [2]: Can't access shared memory area. SHMConfig disabled? _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
