yum seems to have arour 0.99 available.
IF it still does’nt work i’m going to tell yum to install the older version of ardour and when it looks for dependencies i’m gonna write does down. It’s compliing again as i type.
Yes i really am a linux rookie. only reason i have the patience for this, i’m almost 24 and when started using pcs windows did not exsist i learned dos using an old Tutordos program off 3 floppys way back when i was 7-ish.
When i had my stint in college i learned a bit about unix programming it took patience so now i have loads of it.
I just wish this distro was faster it seems super-sluggish to me even though the CELL B.E. is 3.2GHz and is dual core with 6 spe that i can control it seems like the os is not even using the 6 spes, i wish i was good with programming it would try to optimize but i don’t have those skills yet.
it failed again, I think i may have found the route of the issue. somthing called winegcc
winegcc -o libs/fst/fst.o -c -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer -ffast-math -fstrength-red
sh: winegcc: command not found
scons: *** [libs/fst/fst.o] Error 127
scons: building terminated because of errors.
[root@localhost ardour-2.8]#
my yum does not find it, hmm…
well i started to install the old ardour just to get depencies got the following
i’m almost tempted to get the old version. just to see if it operates with the CELL architecture or not.

i did’nt do it yet i’m going to compile again with the 3 new packages added and watch what happens.
Wine is the program that lets you run Windows programs in linux (and some VST-plugins i Ardour)
I really doubt you can do that on a PS3 so I think you should run scons with VST=0 to avoid using wine.

@DDRaptor: with the greatest of respect and thanks for your interest in Ardour, two points:
you may be only the 2nd person on the planet to attempt to build Ardour on a PS3
more conventional Linux platforms have an easier, more robust and more reliable package installation system than Windows. You have been required to skip all of that not because it doesn’t exist, but because you are trying to use (a) an unusual hardware platform (b) a less-well-maintained linux distribution.
