Hello, I installed it, and it works, but I can't start the audio engine. It says: "Unable to connect to jack server". I use pulseaudio and have pulseaudio-jack and jack2 installed. When I run jackd it just gives a info message to stdout. Can you help me? Should I switch to pipewire and deinstall pulse? <img alt="error message" src="https://imgur.com/ToNLR7c.png" title="Unable to connect to jack server" />

when I run jackd:

4.1.3 released with workaround for nVidia driver fixes. https://downloads-eu.bitwig.com/stable/4.1.3/Release-Notes-4.1.3.html

Just to remark: the latest NVIDIA driver works with Bitwig Studio, if GNOME on Wayland is used.

Today Bitwig started crashing on start, taking X with itself. X session crashes silently and respawns. Most likely caused by some recent arch updates, but cannot seem to figure out which ones. Nothing conclusive in the logs.

It turned out to be nvidia driver update v 495.46

Specifically, this is listed in release notes Known Issues section:

 Known Issues

Interaction with pthreads
Single-threaded applications that use dlopen() to load NVIDIA's libGL library, and then use dlopen() to load any other library that is linked against libpthread will crash in libGL. This does not happen in NVIDIA's new ELF TLS OpenGL libraries (see Chapter 5, Listing of Installed Components for a description of the ELF TLS OpenGL libraries). Possible workarounds for this problem are:

Load the library that is linked with libpthread before loading libGL.

Link the application with libpthread.

Bitwig Nvidia Users be aware, downgrading nvidia driver to v495.44 resolves issue.

Not sure if this is to do with my setup, the package or a bug in bitwig, but bitwig is crashing almost straight away. I get the option to log in, to choose demo, I choose demo, I get a window telling me to click on the dashboard button. I can't click on anything and then, after a few moments, it crashes. No error message - even if I run it from cli.

That's really neat if you use flatpak.

abique commented on 2021-11-07 07:18 (UTC) (edited on 2021-11-07 07:19 (UTC) by abique)

On flatpak there is a 3.3 branch, a stable, early-access and beta branch. Once 4.1 is out there will be a 4.0 branch as stable and early-access will point to 4.1.

You can point them to flatpak for early-access and beta.

flatpak install --branch=beta com.bitwig.BitwigStudio

flatpak run --branch=beta com.bitwig.BitwigStudio

I really wish there was a way to keep people from flagging pre-release versions and/or differentiating between the two. Unfortunately, the only thing I can think of is establishing a pre-release branch, and I don't think that will stop people from flagging, and it's too much overhead.

Works fine now, first download had an error, after running yay again it worked.

It's working for me (installed with yay this morning). Thanks a lot stylemistake.
