Thanks Guys,

If you do have Fender FUSE running via V Box, WINE, etc., would you mind letting us know what steps were required to get it running?

OK, I dloaded latest Fuse and attempted to install it via WINE on Kubuntu 10.4

Install got to Silverlight than stopped - guess that it was trying to access the Web to dload Silverlight from MS, which probably doesnt like Silverlight being dloaded to Linux PC and only gives the option of dloading for the OS of the machine being used - actually there is a prg called Moonlight for Linux (http://www.go-mono.com/moonlight/)

Then dloaded Silverlight directly and installed it with WINE - no problem.

Then tried to install Fuse again. Stopped at Silverlight again - didnt see installed Silverlight.

I'm guessing that Fuse is set to download Silverlight as MS probably wont allow inclusion with Fuse executable.

If this is the case, Fuse need to give option to install Silverlight from a Local Drive.

Hope all of this makes sense. ie problemappears to be with MS, not Fuse.

Hi,

I bought a Mustang I yesterday (knowing that the software needs Windows or Mac). I mainly bought it to play at home with headphones and clean sounds with my 63 reissue reverb tank connected.
But I would appreciate a linux version or a supported way to run it in software like wine. I am using linux only for about 10 years now.

cheers,

keelson

has anybody else tried Fuse under WINE?

if so, how about posting details of distro used and of success or failure?

Not much good asking for a Linux version if we dont post details of attempts to run Fuse under WINE or in a Virtual OS.

I'll gladly help to test and/or possibly even help with development.
I run mostly Linux and I've played a bit with Ubuntu Studio as well (low-latency kernel), and it'd be nice if FUSE could run natively on Linux, making it easier to integrate with the rest of the environment (such as for recording...).

I will honestly and sadly avoid trying/helping running FUSE through VirtualBox. It shouldn't be difficult to set up, but it's not a valid solution.
An official solution for adding Linux support is not "Please install another OS".

That said, a temporary solution with Wine is "Ok", but I hope it will not stop at that, because Wine is shaky and you never know which version of Wine will work with a specific application.
I hope the developers of FUSE would take a look at Moonlight (by running it on Windows) to see how it performs in general and what is required to adapt FUSE to work with Moonlight as well as contributing to the Moonlight project to get FUSE up and running on it.

If we use(d) one platform like Windows always has, then it'd be easier for the Fender/Fuse, etc. devs to work with. Now with 100 million Linux OS's and not one incuding Ubuntu, relax for more than ten minutes with low level libraries GCC/GLIBC/STDC and the numerous GUI/Desktop(s) ... its no wonder your famous printers, simple webcamera's, Fuse, etc, etc, etc ... aren't being developed - but only, maybe, hacked loosely together by a community user like urself. Now when it comes to professional companies like Fender, I hope yous understand its def. NOT there fault in any way.

I don't think anyone who is requesting Linux support is blaming Fender for not supporting Linux. It's up to every company to decide whether or not they want to provide their products to a certain group of computer users.
There has been a careful positive response by Fender to support us Linux users, and that obviously makes some of us excited that yet another company will admit the explosion in growth of Linux users and a missed customer base.

Not that this has much to do with the topic, but I have to disagree with you regarding the problems of "hundreds of Linux OSes".
The sole idea of Linux (besides open sourced software) is it's fantastic effort in platform indepence. Linux wouldn't be growing as fast as it is with its "hundreds of OSes" if compatibility among itself would be a problem. It simply isn't.
And in all honesty, had Fender not chosen Silverlight which is proprietary and platform-dependent, they could have reached Windows, Mac, and Linux users with a single code-base, instead of intentionally locking out a great number of users.
that is a fact and has nothing to do with the number of permutations of Linux.

There is one problem with an official support for Linux, and it is that it is not possible to give the same level of support for problems due to the dynamic nature of Linux.
That is however not a problem in practice. It is completely reasonable to only give Little support for one or two popular distributions and let the Linux Community deal with the rest. We are used to that and it has worked just fine.
Heck, 99% of normal computer accessories work with Linux (no matter which OS) WITHOUT the slightest support from the manufacturers. Enough said.

Also, with the addition of a public repository (as I suggested in another topic), Fender would greatly benefit from its (Linux) users that would repay the effort put into giving initial support for Linux in the first place, not to mention the horde of new Linux Musicians buying Fender-products, if Fender would be the leading manufacturer in Linux-compatible hardware.
We all know Linux users are gadget-geeks. It should be a no-brainer. ;)

Good points. I should have just said or added.. an (open-source) Fuse will work with Linux (somehow) eventually.. but closed source binary is usually where the large companies side with ..largely platform dependant.

Hi I tried Virtual Box with a XP licence. (no it's not linux but will give the info anyways).

It installs ok, It runs ok. But somehow the USB support doesn't work. I blocked the USB device to VB when connecting it and it just doesn't interact with the program. Which is weird since USB should be "bypassed" directly to VB.

Hi everybody

Another Linux Audio lover here

I think I am about to buy this amp but I have a question.

I am not worried about fuse (though it does sound cool)

I am however wondering if the usb does function as an audio input under linux
(ubuntu studio)

I love to play with my jack based live looping station

I would love to get a little amp action with my acoustic an also my harmonica

As long as this thing works with jack I am gettin it.

Any feedback would be awesome

Ive used linux so long I tend to forget so many fools still use M$ windoze

Thanks
Jeff

jebsky: Are you talking about g-dec 3 or the Mustang?

If g-dec 3, I'll try to check it out for you tonight.

Short answer: Yes.

Longer answer: I've recorded into Ardour from the Mustang 1 by setting it as the Input device in QJackCtl and selecting my M-Audio Delta 66 as the Output device. Works great. The amp's effects are applied to the sound, so what you hear from the amp is what you'll get in your recording. Sweet. Alas, I haven't been able to achieve very low latency with it, but that's USB for ya. :)

Also, it doesn't work very well with any other input besides a guitar. I tried some vocal recording, hoping the interface might be a universally functional port, but it seems hard-wired to favor to a guitar input. YMMV, I'm sure.

Best,

dp
