I’m trying to record a reading of my just-published novel… and I’m underwhelmed. In KDE, I select multimedia->audacity, and it crashes. I
can get it to run from a command line, but if I try to start “new”, it crashes. When I was testing, and got the correct mike, then wanted to delete what I’d done and actually start, it crashes.

This is as installed, nothing odd.

Recommendations (other than reinstall)?

  • I built it from source, once, several years ago. don’t recall h aving had any problems. You may try that a last resort, y’know?

  • Well, I got it running again – from the command line. And read for maybe five minutes… and then audacity literally ate my system. Cursor disappears on and off, minutes to do anything, and I couldn’t kill it, because it the window xterm took far too long to respond. I had to push the physical button, and power cycle the system.

    Now to find something else to use to record a voice.
