Welcome to GMOD, a music module player for Linux, with support for the Gravis
Ultrasound card and AWE cards.
The following module formats are supported:
MOD (various versions)
8 channel 669
MultiTracker (MTM)
ScreamTracker III (S3M)
UltraTracker (ULT)
FastTracker (XM)
General Requirements:
1) Linux kernel configured with the GUS sequencer driver or with awedrv. The
driver must be version 3.0 or greater (do cat /dev/sndstat to check).
The driver must be configured with MIDI interface support. The
Ultrasound project's driver does not work properly with xgmod and
gmod.
2) A GUS card or an AWE card
Additional Requirements to compile the source with X support:
1) libqt 1.1 or greater. For more information on this library, check out
http://www.troll.no
4) XFree 3.1 or greater. XFree 2.1 may also work.
Additional Requirements to use the precompiled xgmod binary:
1) XFree 3.1 or greater
3) libc 5.4.7 or greater shared library
4) libg++/libstdc++ 27.2.1 or greater shared libraries
Additional Requirements to use the precompiled gmod binary:
1) libc 5.4.7 or greater.
2) libg++/libstdc++ 27.2.1 or greater.
3) ncurses 4.0 shared library
COMPILING:
Two Makefiles are included with this package. Use "Makefile" to produce
xgmod (gmod with an X interface), or use "Makefile.gmod" to produce gmod
(gmod without the X interface). Edit the "DEFINES" and "LIBS" lines in
each file to match your system setup and preferences. Always do 'make clean'
before compiling a new version to remove any old object files.
The contrib directory contains contributed patches which may be applied before
compiling. Use them at your own risk.
INSTALLATION:
Doing 'make install' will compile and install the binaries in the location
specified in the makefile.
- OR -
Copy/move the binaries to whatever directory you normally keep your
executables in.
gmod and Xgmod may be safely SUID root or SGID root if the permissions of
the sequencer require it.
For more information, refer to the man pages (gmod.1 and xgmod.1) and
ChangeLog. Unfortunately, the man pages are currently somewhat out of date.
!!! IMPORTANT NOTE !!!
When (x)gmod starts up, you may see the following message in your system log:
GUS: Midi busy
This is perfectly normal. It is a side effect of a workaround for a bug in
the USS/Lite drivers when used with the GUS PnP cards.
Please send any comments, suggestions, etc. regarding this version to me,
Andrew J. Robinson (arobinso@nyx.net). There is also a Xgmod WWW page
available through http://www.nyx.net/~arobinso.
