Folks…
If your computer throws a wobbly trying to get the VSTs @ http://code.google.com/p/juced/ trying to work (specifically when loading the GUI) under Renoise linux try this -
-
Press Alt-F2 (assuming Gnome as WM, if not load up a terminal emu instead)
-
Type - gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
-
Don’t get a text editor? Try sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf, or try get the file open under root via your preferred method.
-
Comment out the following lines with a hash e.g.
# Section "Extensions"
# Option "MIT-SHM" "no"
# EndSection
-
Restart X11, either by logging out of restarting
-
Launch Renoise, open the VST, hopefully tweak…
Can’t actually vouch for the stability of your system by performing this step. The Intel drivers on my Ubuntu 9.04 are a steaming pile, so much so they required upgrading - but my PC hasn’t fallen over yet and hopefully this is of use to someone else.
Cheers,
Pag
EDIT - In retrospect this probably shouldn’t be in tips and tricks, but somewhere techie instead. Sorry.
