[Lmuse-user] Getting MusE2 beta2 running on Arch

[Pieter B. <pi...@re...>]

Hi All,

Just downloaded the second beta version of MusE2 from Sourceforge, read 
the README and tried to get it running. I was curious so instead of 
creating the build directory myself, I ran "compile_muse.sh". I can 
start muse2, but when I do:

[pieter@s061123 ~]$ muse2
QGtkStyle was unable to detect the current GTK+ theme.
Denormal protection enabled.
no locale <muse_en_US>/</usr/local/share/muse-2.0beta/locale>
Trying RTC timer...
RtcTimer::setTimerFreq(): cannot set tick on /dev/rtc: Permission denied
   precise timer not available
Trying ALSA timer...
AlsaTimer::initTimer(): best available ALSA timer: system timer
got timer = 66
starting with default template
WARNING: Cannot lock memory:: Cannot allocate memory
JACK ERROR: cannot lock down memory for RT thread (Cannot allocate memory)
JACK: buffersize changed 128
WARNING: Cannot lock memory:: Cannot allocate memory
AlsaTimer::setTimerTicks(): requested freq 1024 Hz too high for timer 
(max is 300)
   freq stays at 300 Hz
WARNING: Cannot lock memory:: Cannot allocate memory

Ok, first things first. I don't care that my theme isn't recognized, 
probably an inconsistency between GTK2 and GTK3 or something?
About the RTC timer, I read that I should be able to access it. However, 
my /dev/rtc seems to point to /dev/rtc0:

[pieter@s061123 ~]$ ls -l /dev/rt*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root       4 May 22 20:23 /dev/rtc -> rtc0
crw-rw---- 1 root audio 254, 0 May 22 20:23 /dev/rtc0

I am a member of the audio group:
[pieter@s061123 ~]$ groups
lp wheel games video audio optical storage scanner power users

The README says something about "/proc/sys/dev/rtc/max-user-freq", but I 
don't even have the rtc directory in /proc/sys/dev.

Next the memory thing, what should I do about this?

I hope you guys can help me as good as almost a year back, Tim and 
Robert helped me a lot when I just started using MusE on Ubuntu!

Cheers,
Pieter
