sooperlooper ubuntu hardy 64bit

[bldyman]

hi all! I'm trying to install sooperlooper-1.6.10. I compiled all the packages needed as showed here http://www.essej.net/sooperlooper/download.html
but when I run

Code: Select all

$ sooperlooper
sooperlooper: error while loading shared libraries: librubberband.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

help please!

If you built librubberband, make sure it is installed in a location in your system's library path. On a 64bit system it might be easiest to ensure that it was installed in /usr/lib64, although there are other solutions. I believe someone has made some debian/ubuntu packages (looks like 1.6.9 is the latest there), check out http://activecom.free.fr/linux/

thank you jesse. I installed 1.6.9 version from you links and it seems to have no problems

Code: Select all

bldyman@franco:~$ sooperlooper
SooperLooper 1.6.9

but i can't see any GUI!!
tips?

The "sooperlooper" binary is the engine only. There is a separate binary that is the GUI portion. Open up another shell and run the "slgui" binary to see the GUI front end. You can actually run the slgui binary on a separate box from the engine since it communicates with the engine using the OSC protocol.

You can also start just the "slgui" binary by itself and it will fire up the engine if it is not already running.

bldyman@franco:~$ slgui &

bldyman@franco:~$ slgui: our URL is osc.udp://franco:12959/

[1]+  Segmentation fault      slgui


slgui seems to crash

[sremington]

Just for kicks don't run it with the trailing '&' and see if the error persists. There's no need to run the program in the background.

thanks for your advice seth, but the error persists

Code: Select all

bldyman@franco:~$ slgui
slgui: our URL is osc.udp://franco:10876/
Segmentation fault

I'm guessing that build is not compatible with your system. I think you were on the right track with your own building of it. If you can post all the steps you did to build it I can help see what is missing.

[bldyman]

ok, thanks, steps:
I compiled wxWidgets, libsigc++ 1.2, libsndfile, libsamplerate, liblo ≥ 0.17, libxml2, rubberband with "./configure" "make" "sudo make install"
then I compiled sooperlooper-1.6.10

but when I run

Code: Select all
$ sooperlooper
sooperlooper: error while loading shared libraries: librubberband.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

then I installed 1.6.9 version from you link,sooperlooper ok, but slgui.. segmentation fault

PS when I launch application from menu:

Code: Select all

Failed to execute child process "/usr/bin/slgui" (No such file or directory)

First, uninstall the 1.6.9 package you downloaded.

Then put the following at the end of your ~/.bash_profile file:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib:/usr/local/lib64

Then logout, and log back in. Rebuild the latest SL, install it, then try running your built version.
