Re: [Savonet-users] liquidsoap on ubuntu - intrepid. problems with .deb package and crashes

[Jase <ja...@hy...>]

Yes, I had some similar issues a while back, however I was using JACK
(I'm assuming you're capturing via ALSA). If on the odd chance you are
using JACK, you'll want to use the latest version, as Intrepid's JACK
deb's are bad. (It's easy to recompile JACK, or pluck the related DEB
packages from Jaunty and use dpkg to install them)

I was in a similar situation to you a while back but managed to get
things working nicely on Intrepid in the end with a bit of fiddling, so
I assume the same will be the case for you.

Jase.
