Re: [sweep-users] good news, and [ahem] - contd.

There seems to be some trouble with this Mdk-10.1 environment for
Sweep: Besides of the consistent core dump/breakdown when offloading
files, this installed RPM of Sweep-0.8.3 obviously can _only_ work with
the ALSA module (snd-emu10k1), not with the OSS one (emu10k1).
Problem: the modul setup allows only for either of them, not both.
Next problem: it seems that no _recording_ gear works with the ALSA
driver (all other functions do well).
Additional problem: the recorder used (Yarec) needs the older OSS modul.

I guess this is a matter of how the precompiled setup was done
(precisely with such ALSA preferences) and then RPM-packaged.
Is there an alternative ? Or must I compile anew from sources ?

Though seen the breakdown frequency, I think I go back to 0.8.2 anyway -
at least, that one allowed controlling memory use and thus preventing
graceless exits by simply householding with loaded files.
