Yesterday I installed mixxx and managed to start it, but only as root. Then i got this message: "Direct rendering is not enabled in your machine. This means that the waveform displays will be very slow and take a lot of CPU time. Either upgrade your configuration to enable direct rendering or disable the waveform displays in the control panel by selecting "Simple" under waveform displays. NOTE: In case you run NVidia hardware direct rendering may not be present, but you will not experience a degradation in performance." I tried selecting "simple" but it said that the changes will take effect only after I restart the program and since it started everytime like the first time it was back to the normal waveform again. Also the sound was hacking. I don't know if this was because of the waveform-thing. If it's something else then I have another problem. Today it won't start from root etiher. I get the same text as when I'm "ordinary": Debug: Starting up... Debug: MidiObjectOSS: No MIDI devices available. Debug: playlist name Default Debug: id 0, sr 8000, ch 2, bufsize 16, bufno 400 Segmentation fault (core dumped) I'm supposed to have this running smoothly on thursday when I'm taking care of the music at my schools halloween-party so I'm kind of stressed out. Do you think you can help me? I'm new to both unix and freeBSD so if you explain things like I'm a retarded kid i might get it ^^ Here they had the same problem: http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=3D1236134&forum_id=3D15615= 7 and someone said I "can disable visuals manually by editing your ~/.mixxx.cfg file so that the line with Visuals reads 1 instead of 0" Sounds like something to do if nothing else works. How would I do that? /Linnea
