  1. In case you have trouble downloading presets with the 'Online' button:
  2. 1. Make sure the site is actually up. Open https://musical-artifacts.com
  3. in a browser. If it won't load at all, the site might be down. Also
  4. if you see a 'too many users' error, wait a while and it should work
  5. again. Hopefully. Anyway there's not much you can do about it :(
  6. 2. If the site works fine in a browser, but you get 'Operation not supported'
  7. in guitarix, it's probably a dbus error. The file /etc/rc.d/rc.dbus
  8. should be executable, and when you start your X session, it needs
  9. to be running within a dbus session. Most of the window manager
  10. startup scripts in /etc/X11/xinit/xinit.* already do this (KDE,
  11. XFCE, WindowMaker, and FVWM2, but not fluxbox or twm), but if you
  12. have a custom ~/.xinitrc, you might need to edit it to add dbus
  13. support. See /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.fvwm2 for an example of how to do
  14. this. Note that it's NOT enough for the system dbus to be running,
  15. or a user instance spawned by some X application: dbus-launch sets
  16. environment variables, and your window manager needs to have them
  17. set in its environment! If you're not sure, launch a terminal in your
  18. X session and type:
  19. echo $DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS
  20. If you get a string of gobbledegook similar to this:
  21. unix:abstract=/tmp/dbus-mrYuKLNcnn,guid=2bbb2710726acb1cdbc4511f59641e0a
  22. ...then all is well with dbus. If you get no output, fix your .xinitrc.
