After first an second error i created two empty files: "equalizerrc" and "equalizerrc.availablepresets" in ".pulse" dir. But then this "IndexError:"....

I can't run the last version 2.2. This is the output:

Try this:

$ pulseaudio-equalizer.sh interface.resetsettings

Then try to open the GUI again.

I can not download the deb file. It's a problem with the page, or what?. If there is another way to download it, be grateful. Thanks.

Edit: At the end, i can download the file with Internet Explorer on VirtualBox.

Try this:

$ pulseaudio-equalizer.sh interface.resetsettings

Then try to open the GUI again.

It's not working. I get the same output as before.

It's not working. I get the same output as before.

That's very odd. I deleted all files in ~/.pulse, restarted PulseAudio and tried the equalizer again - it works perfectly here. You may want to re-download the .deb file - I rebuilt the 2.2 package a few times due to small problems, but the latest version should work fine.

Judging from the output, your problem is probably due to an older version of the pulseaudio-equalizer.sh script present on your system. You should delete /usr/local/bin/pulseaudio-equalizer.sh, or any copies you may have installed elsewhere, and make sure that only one version exists in /usr/bin (provided by the .deb file).

Finaly, run:

$ pulseaudio-equalizer.sh debug

Attach the log file created on your desktop, and the contents of ~/.pulse/equalizerrc (if it exists).

Thank you psyke83. "/usr/local/bin/pulseaudio-equalizer.sh" was the problem.

Thanks, installation is now much more simple it installs nicely where it should (psyke83, I think you can now remove the installation points in your post) Nothing to say. It just works (as far I can see). Good work!

I'll fix that in the next update. In the meantime, you just need to do this:

mkdir ~/.pulse/presets
