Description of problem: The "lash" does not only install liblash.so.1 as required by several other packages (see output of "repoquery --whatrequires liblash.so.1"), but it also installs /usr/share/applications/fedora-lash-panel.desktop which doesn't work by default. It's a non-functional menu entry, because /usr/bin/lash_panel by default refuses to start. Silently. Without any graphical error dialog. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): lash-0.5.4-5.fc11.i586

Oh, I see. This is a consequence of the long standing bug 505421. I hope they fix that soon which is not very hard to do. (if you read that bug you will see the unresponsiveness of the maintainer which renders F-11 useless for audio production) Well, the workaround is to unblacklist snd-seq* modules. Or to issue a modprobe snd-seq and/or modprobe snd-seq-oss which can be put in your /etc/rc.local file. I believe that lash_* applications will start fine afterwards. About the splitting problem. Is that a necessity?
> About the splitting problem. Is that a necessity? Only if the LASH Panel desktop menu entry continued to not start anything. ;) I wasn't aware of bug 505421. Once it gets fixed, this one can be closed.
Can we close this now? Is everything okay?
Cannot test that on F11 anymore. On F12 it is not reproducible.
