winamp

[karyoker]

Installed Winamp 3.0.. When launching got a missing lib error and solved by copy and pasting all the winamp libs into /usr/libs..
Now I get this error when launching..Error while loading shared libraries:libstdc++libc6.2-2.so.3 cannot open shared object file: no such file or directory

I did a find for that so could not find anything close...Is this a Redhat so?


Tempted to download libsip as suggested in another thread but need some suggestions....

A few questions....
What distro are you running? This is the debian section, but you are talking about redhat....
Any reason why you are trying to install something that is like 4.5 years old? There are several free and open source winamp like programs that your distro will have installable via your package manager. Take a look at xmms and bmpx.

I would like to shift from XP to linux on DAWS that are used for karaoke/DJ...Over the years we have evolved drom 98se and various players but now I am using roxbox.. It uses 2 winamps for sound engines and I use 4 or 5 plugins One plugin displays the grahics.. Xp is even worse than 98se as far as hogging system resources. We need an OS that is fine tuned to digital audio play and record and hve enugh dual disply grahics capabilities.. Windows sucks!!!! Linux would be the best OS for DAWS if we could get the right people working on it!!!!!

I have installed etch and with this old mind Ive been trying to learn the basics...Using Codeweavers crossover I get winamp to work with limitations..

Roxbox uses the same database as microsoft access and without Visual Basic 6.0 I cant get it to work.. If xmms had the same plugins it would be easy to use versus winamp

Ive actually got better sound engines Sonar 3 has a sound engine that blows winamp away it uses asio divers with a M-Audio Delta44 sound brd...

Any sound engine would work I have sound procs that make almost anything sound good including old recordings.... I was pleasntly surprised when etch installed drivers for the delata44 sound It doesnt know what is but it knows it is multi-channel M-_audio does have linux drivers I downloaded but havt teied ti install them yet..

I still don't really understand what you are doing....... (I had to look up what daws stood for so I know nothing). Roxbox, your software, uses winamp sound engines/plugins. So you need to get winamp working in order to get roxbox working?

I finally posted in the newbie forum a post that should have preceeded these ramblings....It explains somewhat my goals are..

hi
if you look around in the /usr/lib directory you can see many lib files and many symlinks which pointed to the libs
for example
i think you have a file with name libstdc++libc6.2-2.so.3.x.x* and you need the file with name libstdc++libc6.2-2.so.3 so you need create a symlink.
ln -s /usr/lib/libstdc++libc6.2-2.so.3.x.x* /usr/lib/libstdc++libc6.2-2.so.3
