Hi All, When i first installed chuck a few months ago it worked right away without any problems. Now I have it installed on a new fedora Linux system and I can't get it to work. I want to use it with Jack so first I start Jack with qjackctl. Then I try to run the example foo.ck program and I get one of these two messages: JACK tmpdir identified as [/dev/shm] [chuck]: (via rtaudio): no devices found for compiled audio APIs! [chuck]: cannot initialize audio device (try using --silent/-s) Or sometimes just: JACK tmpdir identified as [/dev/shm] Aborted I've tried using it without Jack too with no success. Can anyone tel me how to troubleshoot this? Thanks!
Can anyone tel me how to troubleshoot this?
Hi Francis! Let's start with the basics, not because I think you are dumb but because I'm lazy and like to try to avoid dealing with hard stuff if possible ;¬) There are three versions of ChucK for Linux for the three types of audio system. (OSS, ALSA, JACK). These are different executables. Could you verify which one you have? Typing "chuck --version" at your terminal should tell you this between brackets. If you do have the right one the next step would be verifying that system works at all, for example by trying to make some sound using a different JACK application. Also; I do think some of the pre-compiled version for various Linux distro's are lagging behind a bit and recent ChucK versions have made some quite relevant and fun updates. You may want to compile your own if you haven't done so already (this isn't clear from your mail), one of the added advantages of this is that you will be sure you have the right version (also not yet clear to me). Well, at least it's a first step in figuring this out.... Yours, Kas.

Yes, also please let us know what chuck --probe says. And check if jack say something funny when started from the terminal. peace, Gasten
Hi,
chuck --version:
chuck version: 1.2.1.1b (dracula)
exe target: linux (jack)
http://chuck.cs.princeton.edu/
chuck --probe (same result with and without Jack running):
[chuck]: (via rtaudio): no devices found for compiled audio APIs!
[chuck]:
[chuck]: ------( chuck -- 2 MIDI inputs )------
[chuck]: [0] : "Midi Through Port-0"
[chuck]: [1] : "M Audio Delta 1010 MIDI"
[chuck]:
[chuck]: ------( chuck -- 2 MIDI outputs )-----
[chuck]: [0] : "Midi Through Port-0"
[chuck]: [1] : "M Audio Delta 1010 MIDI"

Jack works without problems with other applications such as Ardour and
Hydrogen.

Okay, think I got it. At least on debian/ubuntu, you need to download the headerfiles of a library to be able to compile costum software. Thus, on a debian system you would need to apt-get install jackd-dev and it should work. I don't know how things are done in fedora, but I guess it's something similar. cheers, Gasten
