The install process requires a locally writable directory in which to build. Locate the
support bundle in an appropriate directory before installation.
Use the following command to unpack the file manually if desired:
•
tar xzf hp_rgs_4_audiosupport.tar.gz
As the user root, change directory into the one created by the command above. It
will contain important files such as:
•
README.txt - basic instructions and file manifest
•
rgs_audio_support - shell installation script for ALSA/JACK libraries
•
alsa-*.tar.bz2 - recent validated tar archives from the ALSA project
(provided only for open source requirements and legacy installations) -
http://alsa-project.org
•
jack-*.tar.gz - recent validated tar archives from the JACK-Audio-
Connection-Kit project - http://jackit.sourceforge.net
•
libsndfile-*.tar.gz - recent validated tar archives from the libsndfile
project (JACK dependency) - http://www.mega-nerd.com/libsndfile
The sample installation script, rgs_audio_support, offers three installation
scenarios:
1. install - This command unpacks all tar archives into a local build directory
in the current directory [ ./localroot ], configures, builds, and installs the
required ALSA/JACK libraries appropriate for the host system and active
kernel. It is a good choice for local installations or system development. A
system reboot is recommended for best results.
2. remove - This command removes and un-configures an installation provided
by the above install command.
3. build_rpms - This command runs an install command first and then attempts
to create a compatible set of binary RPMs for installation on matched system
configurations. This will greatly reduce the work of enterprise administrators
duplicating this install process across multiple nodes. After a successful build,
the following files are created:
•
./RPMS/*.rpms - binary RPMs copied from /usr/src/redhat/RPMS
•
./RPMS/RGS_audio_install.sh - customized install and configuration
script to associate with RPMs
Note: The build log created by this script is located in /var/log/hpaudio.log
Note : The install command does not yield results visible by the RPM package
manager, rpm. The rpm database is not updated nor will inquiries with rpm -q
report the installation. Only installations performed with the results of build_rpms
are manageable by the rpm command.
