<br>library. It is not compatible with anything else.<br><br>You could try to create a symlink in /usr/lib that points to the real<br>shared library:<br><br>----<br> cd /usr/lib<br> ln -s libjack.so.0 libjack-0.100.0.so.0
<br>----<br><br>and then run "ldconfig"<br>Who knows, maybe it will work :-)<br><br>-- Fernando<br><br><br></blockquote></div><br>ok it doesn't work !! grrr I give up. I don't want to lost my time with that ! It seems that they will make a new version before the end of the month. Version
1.6 <br>Perhaps I would be luckier... <br>Do you know other software to mix mp3 for Fun and not too old ? wich I could compile easily :D<br clear="all"><br>-- <br>* ***************************************************************************************
