Replaced it with:

Stripped both binaries.  21K package with doc.

This Toshiba laptop records extremely faintly.  I used aumix to
increase recording volume (R) for mike from 0 to 100.
Tested with rec test.wav and my ear to the speakers.  Worked.

The piano tuning program is still not picking up any sound even after 
adjusting record vol with aumix.  I listened with mplayer and increased 
vol with *

The laptop works with several XP tuning programs, but one of these (free) 
says the signal is also very faint.  Even adjusted to maximum input 
volume.


Typing 'piano' detects 60Hz background noise (62-67, actually).
(Some XP programs also detect that so this is normal).

Typing 'piano A' is supposed to select the note to tune to (the default 
without that is to autodetect).  But it tells me 'cannot open soundcard'. 
The modules are loaded.

This program is ideal for tuning a piano half a note low, and avoids using 
XP or compiling a QT based linux tuning program.  How hard is it to set up 
WINE for BL?

The author's email address does not work.
