ToneLib JAM and ToneLib GFX for Linux

Unfortunately I cannot reproduce this bug in my workstation and I don't know how to go about finding out the problem . I did a fresh install of Linux Mint 18.1 Serena (64) using the installer and the ToneLib Jam works fine for me.

ToneLib Jam may be run on top of an audio system (Jack or ALSA). With Jack is quite easy to control the latency. Go to Setup in Jack Audio Connection Kit and a tune periods, a period size and a sample rate. The 5msec latency must be fine.

 

I have been trying to start GFX an JAM for several days on my Mint 18.3 Cinnamon installs...two different pcs, and both apps do the same thing (basically nothing). I have updated the systems and reinstalled the apps, still nothing. The Zoom app works fine on these Mint installs. Still hoping/trying...its not only you...these are complicated and very useful apps and I appreciate the developers work on them...

 

naual, wcguitar,

Thank you for your comments! We have managed to reproduce this issue, which seems to only occur in the latest release on Linux Mint. I am sure we will be able to come up with a fix soon.

 

Thanks for your work on these apps...have a great day...

 

naual, wcguitar,

In order to address compatibility issues with Linux Mint 18.x, please download the latest versions (3.5.3) of the applications from our web-site. Thank you again for your reports and help in getting this fixed!

 

I think that is no big problem . Personally, I like what guys from MindMusicLabs.com have done (MusicOS). NAMM 2019:



But... the software stability and sound quality is our first priority right now .

 

All three apps now working great on Mint 18.3 install. As Valentine Michael Smith once said, "Thou art God, I am God, all that groks is God." and you guys grok...

 

If you mean a device like this:

there's no problem about it. Originally, Tonelib-Gfx was designed with an ability of running without GUI and being externally controlled by MIDI.

As for hi-gain noises, we're intent to add new Noise Gate effect (ExtremeNg?) with the upcoming update, which will have wide variety of settings.

 

Hi,
It's really great, that Tonelib supports Linux!

I have same or similiar issue on my openSUSE Tumbleweed WS. Tonelib-Jam starts but now window appears, still process is running.
In terminal output says:
xprop: error: No window with name Tonelib Jam - Untitled exists!

But it works if i run it with strace:
strace ToneLib-Jam 2>/dev/null

I redirected output because it's huge and don't know what to looking in.
GFX works just perfect.

 

Same here on latest KDE Neon (Ubuntu 18.04 based) with KXStudio repos: I can't run the app via .desktop file, but it runs with strace. This is what looks problematic:

access("/etc/ld.so.nohwcap", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
access("/etc/ld.so.preload", R_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)


The last string appears repeatedly in random places of strace output.

What also looks strange is this:

Spoiler

poll([{fd=5, events=POLLIN}], 1, -1) = 1 ([{fd=5, revents=POLLIN}])
recvmsg(5, {msg_name=NULL, msg_namelen=0, msg_iov=[{iov_base="\1\0\n\0\0\0\0\0\1\214Y\223\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", iov_len=4096}], msg_iovlen=1, msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 32
recvmsg(5, {msg_namelen=0}, 0) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable)
recvmsg(5, {msg_namelen=0}, 0) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable)

access("/usr/bin/dconf", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

recvfrom(20, "SelectionBox.foreground:\t#cfd8dc"..., 10124, 0, NULL, NULL) = 10124
recvmsg(20, {msg_namelen=0}, 0) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable)
(the above also appears repeatedly in different variations, like below)

poll([{fd=20, events=POLLIN}], 1, -1) = 1 ([{fd=20, revents=POLLIN}])
recvmsg(20, {msg_name=NULL, msg_namelen=0, msg_iov=[{iov_base="\1\1-\0\0\0\0\0\1\0\2\0\0\0\0\0\2\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", iov_len=4096}], msg_iovlen=1, msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 32
recvmsg(20, {msg_namelen=0}, 0) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable)
recvmsg(20, {msg_namelen=0}, 0) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable)
shmget(IPC_PRIVATE, 10000, IPC_CREAT|0777) = 2293769
shmat(2293769, NULL, 0) = 0x7ff5e44af000
poll([{fd=20, events=POLLIN|POLLOUT}], 1, -1) = 1 ([{fd=20, revents=POLLOUT}])
writev(20, [{iov_base="+\0\1\0", iov_len=4}, {iov_base=NULL, iov_len=0}, {iov_base="", iov_len=0}], 3) = 4
poll([{fd=20, events=POLLIN}], 1, -1) = 1 ([{fd=20, revents=POLLIN}])
recvmsg(20, {msg_name=NULL, msg_namelen=0, msg_iov=[{iov_base="\1\1.\0\0\0\0\0\7\0 \2\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", iov_len=4096}], msg_iovlen=1, msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 32
recvmsg(20, {msg_namelen=0}, 0) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable)
recvmsg(20, {msg_namelen=0}, 0) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable)


close(6) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)
(a possible attempt to close a nonexistent file)

access("/home/alex/.config/Gadwin/Tonelib Jam/_app_temp618e36fa.settings", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
access("/home/alex/.config/Gadwin/Tonelib Jam/_app_temp618e36fa.settings", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
(this also is strange, as I have all the access rights to my own home directory and any child objects inside it)

Otherwise strace output looks fine.

 

Thanks for reporting the issue and providing the logs! What version of KDE Neon are you running (/etc/os-release)? We'll investigate what's going on.
