| I have just installed Cecilia on my Linux PC, and am experiencing a problem.
If I type in orc and sco parameters in the modules window, it works fine.
I can preview it, or write it to disk and play it. I can also save as a
module or orc/sco pair.
But I can't load any files from disk. When I go to the file menu and
select Open... the fileselect box appears and I can select a file and the
file name appears in the file rectangle, but when I click ok, nothing
happens. The box just disappears and no file is loaded. I get the same
behavior with orc and module files.
The only thing I can load is a score from the module window's file menu.
Whatever file I select will appear in the bottom pane. The only way I can
load an orc/sco pair without typing them manually, is to first load the orc
file into the score pane then paste it into its proper pane. Then I load
the score and I can process the module. For some reason I can't paste in
text from another application, or even from the module window's scratch
editor (I can load files into the scratch editor).
Have anyone else ever experienced a problem like this? Could this be a bug
in the Linux port?
The only other thing I can think of is that possibly I am missing a
particular library on my system. I am running Debian 1.3.1, which I
installed via ftp, and have had to install lots of components individually,
which I gather is not necessary when installing from a CD.
For example, I just obtained a copy of vplay from Dave Phillips. The first
time I tried to run it I got an an error message saying libc4 could not be
found. So I got it from the Debian ftp site and installed it. Then vplay
ran fine.
But if the problem were a missing library, wouldn't I get an error message
like I did with vplay?
Can anyone help me solve this problem?
Thanks,
David Densmore
