 	Then there's definitely something wrong. :) So either create the mentioned
 	directory (in this case "/usr/local/lib/linuxsampler/plugins") manually or
-	recompile <application>LinuxSampler</application> in case you want it to use
-	another directory as plugins directory. Assuming you want it to use the directory "/usr/lib/linuxsampler/plugins" instead you could compile the sampler i.e. this way:

+	the location where LinuxSampler shall look for plugins by setting the
+	environment variable LINUXSAMPLER_PLUGIN_DIR:

+<prompt>bob@mybox ~ $</prompt> <command>export LINUXSAMPLER_PLUGIN_DIR="/usr/lib/linuxsampler/plugins"</command>
+<prompt>bob@mybox ~ $</prompt> <command>linuxsampler</command>

+	or recompile <application>LinuxSampler</application> with another directory
+	as default plugins directory. Assuming you want it to use the directory
+	"/usr/lib/linuxsampler/plugins" instead you could compile the sampler i.e.
