Okay, I copied the contents of /usr/lib/ladspa to /home/chuckk/ladspa, since, as Debian binaries, they're static. So LADSPA_PATH=/home/chuckk/ladspa and I can save there as much as I want. For some reason Rosegarden always crashes if LADSPA_PATH has two values. For the /etc/profile not updating thing, someone told me to use $: . /etc/profile, which sho nuff works. -Chuckk On 8/21/07, Chuckk Hubbard wrote: > > Oddly it works now. Go figure.
