I’ve downloaded the free v1.0.0.rc.1 release to try on Ubuntu 22.04 since I’m very much looking forward to a decent DAW on Linux but I’m unable to properly run it.
I’ve extracted the .zip, ran the install shell script, it asked for my sudo password so filled it in, worked through the installer, so far so good.
But as soon as I run the DAW itself I get multiple pop-ups:
- one that my user doesn’t have enough privileges to schedule priority of threads
- one that my user doesn’t have enough privileges to allow Zrythm to lock unlimited memory
- one “Backend initialization failed for JACK”
- one JACK error: Overall operation failed
It does show me the UI and I can do about anything with it, except getting sound out of it(it seems).
Also I couldn’t find the link to the “Getting Started” anymore after install, would be nice if that would be included in the Troubleshooting section of “About Zrythm” or something so it’s easier to find after installation.
Running the zrythm_start shell script as root doesn’t fix the issues either.
When trying to load up the demo project instead it also throws a permission error:
Any ideas what I’m missing?
