My suggestion is to use the packages provided by your distribution when possible. If you prefer to compile the program yourself, I would like to give you some advices to build VMPK with the new features. First of all, you need CMake 2.8. The touch screen feature is available on all platforms, thanks to Qt >= 4.6 (but is better supported in Qt 4.7). There are two new build options:
- RTMIDI_DRIVER: selects the RtMidi backend. The default one depends on the OS. Allowed values: ALSA, JACK, COREMIDI, IRIX, WINMM, NET.
- PROGRAM_NAME: selects the executable name.
$ mkdir build-jack $ cd build-jack $ cmake .. -DRTMIDI_DRIVER=JACK -DPROGRAM_NAME=vmpk-jack -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=release $ make $ mkdir build-net $ cd build-net $ cmake .. -DRTMIDI_DRIVER=NET -DPROGRAM_NAME=vmpk-net -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=release $ make
For the network version, there is a new help page here: http://vmpk.sourceforge.net/m/
Enjoy!
