Here is what I get when I try and compile anything on Ubuntu Linux and BlitzMax.
I extracted the archive of BlitzMax to the desktop and this is what happens, any solutions?

The clue's in the output.: g++ not found

Fire up your package manager and install (iirc) the gnu C compiler. There are linux set up guides in the linux forum.

EDIT: Not quite, MaxGUI still doesn't work!

Everything should work with those packages.

It does compile, one thing I forgot was to update the packages.

Tried the pulse driver?

I tried to but I don't understand how to set it up nor do I know how to change drivers via BlitzMax

You need to slowly and carefully follow the instructions in the first post of that thread.

If you get stuck, then perhaps ask in that thread for the particular step you are struggling with.

Once you have modified the two files I have detailed you need to rebuild modules and then audio should "just work".
