Been goofing around with ChucK for an online course, had some issues with Wiimote and OSC and thought I'd look into SC instead as it seems to be somewhat more actively supported and perhaps a wider variety of UGens and less CPU load (which I think relates to my Wiimote problems in Chuck).

I started SC and here's what happened when I tried to boot the server:

"Operation not permitted" seems to indicate that I should run this as root, or maybe realtime was not enabled on this system. I am also trying to build SC onto the Planet CCRMA Fedora 24 image and we'll see how that goes.

When I try to send my browser to the help link:

http://supercollider.sf.net/wiki/forums.html/ERROR:_server_failed_to_start

I get a Virus warning from Norton, which is built into my Belkin router. It does not say anything specific about the nature of the problem.

So then there are 2 questions:

1) any specific audio debug strategy? I've gone through some steps of ALSA check and it seems OK, but I'm not certain whether I have Jack installed (too many things to remember them all). Audio does work on this PC for browser, Audacity, etc.

2) any awareness of a virus at the SC Wiki?

Thx,

Got it running on my Fedora system without any problem. Still curious...

your router is junk. norton has one good product sold to large businesses. norton endpoint protection. everything else is junk. belkin is also junk sold at staples or target stores. if you had a better router, it would not block you (the owner of the router) from reading a manual that you requested. if you own something and it does not do what you ask it to do then you do not really own it. it owns you.

audio compatibility has always been hit or miss on linux. more problems arise if you are in a VM. you probably want to use ubuntu 18.04 since it is newer and has better audio support. don't use it in a VM for audio. just don't. you can see from the log that it tries to start a jack socket then it tries to start an alsa socket. everything fails. on some systems jack uses alsa and they work together. some systems use one or the other but not both.
