[Gamine] Music doesn't play
« on: December 20, 2009, 02:48:43 PM »
Hello,

While launching Gamine, the music doesn't play. Squares and triangles, colours, everything is ok except for the sounds. I tried starting "mplayer *" from console in the /usr/share/gamine/sounds directory, and sounds come out loud and clear.

Could someone try to fix this ?

Thanks.

Hi,

I tried to find out why the sound doesn't play and I found out that the program is looking for his sounds in /usr/local/share/gamine - but they are in fact, under /usr/share/gamine.

For now, I put a symlink and it works.

I wanted to let the packagers know. Else, there is a newer version for it, but I didn't find the changelog.

gamine-1.0rc2.tar.gz - http://www.gnunux.info/projets/gamine/gamine-1.0rc2.tar.gz

Regards,
Mélodie

Hi,

Almost one year later, I'm here again ! :D

I still don't have sound in Gamine after I install it.

If I start it from console, I get:
Quote
$ gamine
** error: /usr/local/share/gamine/sounds/BachJSBrandenburgConcertNo2inFMajorBWV1047mvmt1.ogg does not exists
** error: /usr/local/share/gamine/sounds/paint1.wav does not exists
** error: /usr/local/share/gamine/sounds/grow.wav does not exists
** error: /usr/local/share/gamine/sounds/crash.wav does not exists
** error: /usr/local/share/gamine/sounds/tri.ogg does not exists

I came back here not remembering too well how I solved it last time. So I just did as before:

Code: [Select]
$ su
passwd
# cd /usr/local/share
# ln -s /usr/share/gamine gamine

Now:
Code: [Select]
# ls -l gamine
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 nov.  29 14:22 gamine -> /usr/share/gamine/

And when I launch the program, now the sound works (very nice by the way).

Thanks for considering fixing it ?
