multitrack depends on some old libraries that you will have to install from the oldlibs directories on your debian mirror or CD. You can see what libs are needed with the ldd command: $ ldd /usr/local/bin/multitrack libvga.so.1 => /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libvga.so.1 (0x4000e000) libvgagl.so.1 => /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libvgagl.so.1 (0x4004a000) libX11.so.6 => /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libX11.so.6 (0x40058000) libm.so.5 => /lib/libm.so.5 (0x400f6000) libc.so.5 => /lib/libc.so.5 (0x400ff000) Another thing that caused multitrack to "segfault" me was a setting in the preferences file ~/.multitrack/prefs I changed this to read: #========================================================= # Audio buffers section #========================================================= o_nr_buffers = 10 i_nr_buffers = 10 Hope this helps. -- __ __ Frank Barknecht ____ ______ ____ __ trip\ \ / /wire ______ / __// __ /__/ __// // __ \ \/ / __ \\ ___\ / / / ____/ / / / // ____// /\ \\ ___\\____ \ /_/ /_____/ /_/ /_//_____// / \ \\_____\\_____\ /_/ \_\
