Brahms software problem

Micro420 · 09-19-2003, 12:13 PM

What's this mean when I try to run Brahms?

Brahms couldn't initialize midi recording object on aRts sound server. Currently, Brahms needs to be installed under the same prefix aRts/KDE is installed under - i.e. if aRts is installed in /opt/kde2, you will need to install Brahms there, too (./configure --prefix=/opt/kde2)

So how do I fix this?

"So how do I fix this?"

From the error message you would seem to need to reinstall Brahms in a different location. You do this by compiling Brahms with the modified configure command.

First find out where aRts is installed with:
find / -iname "*arts*"

and assuming that it is in /opt/kde then:

Log in as root.
Unpack the Brahms tarball in a working directory.
cd to the Brahms directory
/configure --prefix=/opt/kde
make
make install
