Hi Preston,
The fluidsynth command line options in the script have -is. i says no-shell, s says run as a server. Then the terminal session started automatically at boot starts it up. It seems to work reliably enough for me, although there is a delay (5 sec? in the script that I might lengthen as the large soundfont file that I am using seems to take a bit more digestion.
There is probably a smart way to query status from fluidsynth (are you ready yet?) but I don’t know it.
Peter
Hi Peter,
Man! I had a miserable experience getting fluidsynth to run at boot. I tried everything: editing the rc.local,.bashrc, init.d,even tried my hand at the new system.
Somewhere I stumbled upon the "-- no-shell" and the "-- service" options and one of these (I don't know which just yet) did the trick for me.
Thanks again for the script. Does it run successfully at boot time? I don't understand how it does this?
Cheers,
Preston
