audio group

2009-04-13 Thread Raffaele
Hi you all,

I am having trouble in using real time apps under gnome.
When I add my user to the audio group in order to run RT apps (qjacktl) the
login takes forever and I got this message:

"There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon.
Some things, such as themes, sounds, or background settings may not work
correctly.
The last error message was:

Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did
not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the
reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.

GNOME will still try to restart the Settings Daemon next time you log in."

Running gnome-settings-daemon fro cli results in the same error.
Removing the user from audio group fixes but on the other side it prevents
me to run RT apps.

It seems an alsa related issue but everything worked fine since I switched
to gnome from kde.
Any hints?

regards
raffaele

Just did it on another machine with libgdal1-1.5, but I need this support
for libgdal1-1.4* on another one.
Does gdal-ecw plugin works for previous gdal releases?

I must say that running the standard configure && make works but I would
prefer not to do a make install against debian packages.

make-kpkg and 2.6.29.2 vanilla sources

2009-05-03 Thread Raffaele Morelli
Hi you all,

I am using vanilla sources to build a debian RT custom kernel using
make-kpkg.
Compiling goes very nice and ends up with a deb kernel package but make-kpkg
does't generate initrd using --initrd option! I had to generete it by hand
with update-initrams and the put the corresponding line to menu.lst in order
to boot.

I usually run latest stable vanilla releases and never experienced that
problem with make-kpkg.

Is it a bug or what?
