Hi there, I'm so excited I stumbled on this project but I'm pretty new to the Linux game. I'm attempting to get this driver installed mostly just so I can listen to music (I use my UXII as my soundcard). I've been following the directions but when I try to build the RPM using
rpmbuild -tb line6usb-0.8.1.tar.bz2
I get:
error: Failed build dependencies:
kernel-source is needed by line6usb-0.8.1-1.i386
Can someone help me out? I'm currently running Ubuntu 9.04. Thanks!
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
I'm not sure about using rpm in ubuntu, because ubuntu's packet system is not rpm but apt, but maybe it can work.
I've installed the driver using the second way (installation from source). You need to install the packet called "linux-headers-generic" (or linux-headers-rt if you use realtime kernel). It will automatically install proper headers for your version of kernel. You need only headers, not entire source.
And read the "system requirements" section of driver installation manual.
Which in my opinion shouldn't be at the end of manual.
I hope I helped :-)

I've just gone through all this in Ubuntu 9.04 which is why I switched to Fedora 10. That being said, there is a RT kernel on the mailing list for Ubuntu Studio that I'd highly reccomend. It has the kernel source in a separate deb file that you install 1 st then the kernel (2.6.29.1-rt8-custom), and reboot into the kernel. And then your Line6 USB driver will compile and install.
Configuring JACK after that is a whole new thread...:)
