apokryphosAnd if you're not getting mp3 player output then it's not really a #kubuntu issue12:10
jeanlucim in #kubuntu12:10
apokryphosexactly12:10
jeanlucso what12:11
apokryphosIf it's not working in others too, you're likely to have more luck in #ubuntu12:11
jeanluc#ubuntu12:11
nikkiajeanluc, as i told you earlier, its because you probably have the output set to the wrong plugin, and arts is blocking access to the sound card12:14
nikkiaeither setup arts as the output plugin for your media player(s), or configure dmix, the choice is yours12:14
apokryphosnikkia: wouldn't it refuse to play at all, rather than give no sound output in that case?12:14
nikkiaapokryphos: no, i've seen it do both12:15
apokryphosSeems odd that he can play other audio types...12:15
jeanlucI can play mp312:15
jeanlucjust no sound12:15
jeanlucno errors12:15
jeanlucbut no sound12:15
chris12349you did unmute in alsaconf right?12:15
jeanluchow do you do that12:16
chris12349actually if you can hear sound in other apps that probably isn't it12:16
jeanlucok in beep12:16
jeanlucits says out put plugin is also 0.9.712:16
jeanlucalsa*12:16
nikkiajeanluc, try 'artsplay some_mp3_file.mp3' from the command line, where 'some_mp3_file.mp3' is the filename for a mp3 file in the directory you're in12:17
spermie_411anyone in here use cedega??12:18

jeanlucI have tried mp3's in every media player and installed gstreamer mad but no mp3s is working but .wav works so can some one help me play mp312:21
=== apokryphos wonders if attempting to make debs gets easier
nikkiait really agrevates me, wtf are we still walking newbies thru the same sound configuration nightmare that we had to walk them thru in 2000 ?12:22
apokryphosjeanluc: evidently people have tried to help you; evidently, this isn't really the channel for it anyhow12:22
nikkiawhy can't alsa enable dmix if it detects that the sound hw doesn't support multi-client ?12:22
apokryphosnikkia: I critisize the process, and yet it's so irresistable :P12:22
apokryphosMakes me almost like Windoze12:23
nikkiaso little hw supports multi-client anyway, just enable dmix, and let people turn it off, ffs12:23
nikkiaapokryphos: lets not even get on the 'support mixed sample rates when they clearly don't work' issue :P12:24
nikkiai thought the whole point of alsa was 'OSS is broken, lets do something that works' not 'lets recreate the nightmare with a different twist'12:25
apokryphosthe poor sound guys get critisized a lot, poor fellows. Suffice it to say the guys at aRts must have got a lot of grief12:26
nikkiaapokryphos: i question the whole point of 'sound servers' anyway12:26
nikkiathey just annoy people, and get in the way12:26
jeanlucya12:27
jeanlucit really annoys me12:27
jeanluconly thing I miss from windows12:27
nikkia(yes, i know, arts does far more than just interface to the sound hardware, but still, do we need it as 'a sound server' ?12:27
jeanlucis mp312:27
jeanlucwell12:28
jeanlucI can always resort to using12:28
apokryphosnikkia: isn't it still officially undeveloped now?12:28
jeanlucan12:28
jeanluceek12:28
jeanlucstereo12:28
nikkiaapokryphos: arts? i don't think so12:28
apokryphosOnly thing I miss from Windoze is... viruses12:28
jeanlucI miss mp312:28
aseigonikkia: yes, such a thing tends to be needed12:28
nikkiaaseigo: based on what?12:29
aseigonikkia: we need codecs to decode media, we need a way to mix audio on the fly both locally and remotely12:29
apokryphosnikkia: hm, maybe it was just the original author of it12:29
nikkiaaseigo: no, mixing on the fly should be the domain of the sound drivers12:29
jeanlucok well im out for a while12:30
aseigonikkia: *cough*portability*cough*12:30
jeanluctty and thanks for help12:30
nikkiaaseigo: as for decoding media and handling local and remote audio, nothing there demands something that blocks all other audio access12:30
aseigonikkia: as soon as there is a single driver spec that does that across the domain of OSes we support, hell ya!12:30
aseigonikkia: that still leaves us with codecs and such things12:30
aseigoif your card supports hardware mixing, the audioserver shouldn't block12:31
aseigoif your card doesn't support hardware mixing, you need the software to do it12:31
nikkiaaseigo: maybe you missed when i said 'hardly any (consumer) hw supports multi-card (at the hardware level)'12:31
aseigoright.. which is why we have sound servers ...12:32
nikkiaaseigo: which end up blocking, because there are 300 different audio access methods in use12:32
aseigowhich is why in kde4 we're going to pick one that's in use by more than just us12:32
aseigothat was, actually, the hope with arts except the rest of the world is full of NIH12:32
nikkiai run a gtk/gnome app, oh sorry, arts is blocking esd, i run a non-gnome/non-kde app, oh, sorry arts is blocking alsa/oss  and so on12:32
aseigoremember back when we DIDN'T have sound servers as the status quo?12:33
nikkiaaseigo: you mean the OSS days? OSS was broken from day 112:33
aseigoand to have sound come from cdp you had to QUIT xmms?12:33
nikkiaheck, it was broken on sunos where /dev/dsp was stolen from :)12:33
aseigonikkia:re: the arts blocking ... two things: for now there is artsdsp12:33
aseigosecond: i'm sure you caught the bit where i said we're attempting to address this in kde4?12:34
nikkiaaseigo: i've never gotten anything but broken up spluttery audio out of artsdsp12:34
aseigothat's unfortunate12:34
nikkiaand java especially doesn't like being wrapped12:34
nikkiano matter if you use artsdsp or aoss, the CPU usage pegs at max12:35
aseigohow fast is your cpu?12:35
nikkia2.8GHz12:35
aseigoheh.. ok, that's wildly wrong12:35
apokryphospretty interesting article: http://www.arts-project.org/doc/arts-maintenance.html12:37
nikkiabtw, i hope to god when you say 'address it in kde4' you don't mean 'use JACK'12:37
aseigono, because jack doesn't do what we need12:37
=== aseigo ponders just how silly nikkia thinks we are =)
nikkiayeah, it also doesn't work without using the artsd output plugin here :/12:37
fromozehi,  kde4 will use gstreamer, no?12:39
fromozeI'm courious about that :)12:39
aseigoit might12:39
aseigogstreamer and nmm seem to be the two most likely contenders at this point12:39
aseigoeither way, it will just be the "default" engine12:40
apokryphosis aRts developed at the moment?12:40
aseigomost applications will simply use the kde audio classes for doing the basics which will then feed into a given back end12:40
fromozeYeah, the flexible kde-way :)12:40
aseigoapokryphos: no12:40
aseigowhich will allow us to have a recommended configuration, but also allow people to swap things out easily if they need/want to12:40
aseigoincluding us ;)12:41
apokryphosso how do you like kubuntu aseigo? Been using it long? :)12:41
apokryphosaseigo: sudo is the way to go, remember ;-)12:41
aseigohaha. oh god not that conversation again! ;)12:41
aseigoum.. i've been using it for a couple months i guess12:41
=== apokryphos feels the urgency to point out another Microsoft classic: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/checkos.mspx
aseigonot long.12:42
=== othernoob [~othernoob@p54A2F74E.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #kubuntu
aseigoi'm still using suse as my primary desktop .. kubuntu is for a work project really12:42
fromozeI like gstreamer, It'll make easier the distribution without pripietary-codecs and the instalation to the users12:42
aseigooooh.. we should alias kde-config --version to winver ;)12:42
apokryphosNote: These instructions do not apply to Apple Macintosh computers12:43
nikkiaaseigo: surely the problem is going to be that with kde4 we'll have the requirement for the NEW sound server running, plus artsd for those kde3 apps that haven't been updated, plus esd for those gnome apps we occasionally use, plus alsa configured with dmix and oss compatibility for those obscure apps like java and such that won't talk to anything less than 15 years old?12:43
apokryphosI wonder if it works on Linux...12:43
othernoobnikkia are you familiar with printing problems?12:43
fromozeSuse is the main distro between kde deloppers finally :/12:43
nikkiaothernoob: not really12:43
apokryphosno idea what the traffic is really like, but it seems to me like people are straying from SuSE12:44
aseigonikkia: so we shouldn't move forward and fix things because the old way is broken?12:44
aseigonikkia: or are you just pissy about audio12:44
=== apokryphos thinks Linus doesn't use it anymore
nikkiaaseigo: well, it just seems like each time, it gets worse12:44
aseigonikkia: so let me ask you then. what would be a good and realistic solution.12:45
McScruffwhat is the best sound server?12:45
crimsunavoid a sound server period.12:45
aseigoMcScruff: which ever one we pick in kde4 ;)12:45
aseigocrimsun: you must've skipped over the "realistic" bit12:45
crimsunalsa has a library-level dmix hack.12:45
nikkiaaseigo: if things are to be fixed, they should be fixed *system wide* not in a tiny corner of the system at a time12:45
fromozeMcScruff: a multi-channel soundcard ?12:45
othernoobi have a b/w laser printer and a pdf with a tiny little bit of colour in it. and it won't print it :/12:46
aseigonikkia: i'll explain it again for you:12:46
othernoobit prints everything else just fine12:46
crimsunaseigo: so did gstreamer, arts, nas, and polypaudio.12:46
aseigoby having a kde audio layer, the majority of kde apps won't care what's under it12:46
aseigoby providing a recommened audio engine that we pick from the current stable of worthy, actively developed audio systems out there today we begin to see the way forward to creating a standard12:46
fromozedmix do the sound mix? I think it only works by hardware mix, no?12:47
crimsunfromoze: dmix doesn't care about the hardware.12:47
aseigocrimsun: what's your point exactly? we cant rely on alsa, if that's your thought12:47
nikkiafromoze: no, dmix is software mixing, its for when you don't have hardware mixing12:47
crimsunaseigo: there is no adequate solution.12:47
=== aseigo says something about codecs again
aseigocrimsun: again, you're missing the "realistic" bit12:48
aseigocrimsun: since we can't ship a silent kde, we have to find something that is as good as possible12:48
fromozeI try to use dmix on a integrated soundcard and It doesn't works... well, it was on year 2003 XD12:48
crimsunaseigo: and what, praytell, is that? that automatically rules out esound, arts, nas, and polypaudio.12:48
=== apokryphos is more hopeful of improvements in Konqueror, and use of space etc.
aseigoi know a lot of people are pissy about audio (despite arts haven gotten fairly decent at the end here), but it gets a bit tiresome to hear the goth-teenager attitude "it all sucks. why bother."12:49
crimsunaseigo: I do alsa. I know it sucks. Tell me what's better.12:49
aseigocrimsun: woah! and that list didn't include EITHER of the ones i mentioned earlier! imagine that!12:49
nikkiaaseigo: you think i'm a goth teenager? i'm impressed12:49
crimsun(for that matter, I'm not a goth teenager either ;)12:50
aseigonikkia: no, it's just the sad depressive attitude that doesn't lead to solutions =)12:50
nikkiaaseigo, no, the attitude that doesn't lead to solutions is 'we'll fix it in our project, rest of the software universe be damned', which is what has happened every other time12:50
aseigonikkia: the "if we fix it, it'll suck for all the old apps" concept is a good example of that.12:50
aseigonikkia: if we can't win in your mind, well, that's unfortunate. the best we can do is to avoid the same mistakes in the future and provide a better experience then12:51
aseigonikkia: you really aren't reading what i'm writing at all are you?12:51
nikkiaasegio, it needs to be fixed at the system-wide level, it needs the co-operation of the alsa people, the freebsd people, etc etc12:51
aseigonikkia: i've explained it twice now.12:51
fromozeThe problem about mixing for me is that now a soundcard with multi-channel is really expensive (>80). I really love my old soundblaster live! nowdays, most of the soundcards are f** win-soundcards :(12:51
aseigowell fine, when they get their act together, what a frabjous day it will be12:51
aseigoand then we'll just have to get the hardware people on board and then we only have codecs and network trasnparency to deal with!12:52
crimsunum, there isn't very much push from the non-Linux side for ALSA, I'm afraid.12:52
aseigoof course not12:52
aseigoso... REALISTICALLY we need/want something that: provides codecs, mixing and network trans of some sort and that is portable12:52
aseigowe could bitch and moan about it, but that won't bring linux and bsd closer together.. 12:53
aseigohell, it won't even get the linux audio up to where we need it to be =)12:53
crimsunI'm not arguing to bring Linux and *BSD closer.12:53
nikkiaaseigo: i fail to see why all those have to be in one package12:53
aseigoour job is to get a desktop evnironment out that allows you to play sound12:54
aseigonikkia: they don't, but the total solution needs to cover those bases12:54
crimsunfrankly, that's overextending imo12:54

tommyexactly12:57
aseigohrm. their web server seems to be down atm12:58
crimsuntommy: you could use artsdsp if I remember correctly12:58
crimsunartsdsp mpg123 ...12:59
nikkiathere's a version of mpg123 out there that can output directly to arts12:59
crimsunor simply set the timeout-and-release to a shorter idle period12:59
nikkiai doubt its packaged tho12:59

dyllanhey guys.. .07:38
dyllani cant login as root on the shell?07:38
dyllani know the password i have is correct, but it still wont let me07:38
dyllanany ideas?07:38
apokryphosdyllan: Ubuntu doesn't use root, it uses sudo07:38
apokryphos!rootsudo07:38
ubotuI heard rootsudo is at http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/RootSudo07:38
dyllanso if i was at the shell, how would i get root access?07:39
apokryphosdyllan: make sure any command you want to run as root is preceded by "sudo"07:39
apokryphosor you could just type sudo -s  to go into the equivalent of a root shell07:39
dyllanahh ok :)07:40

apokryphosBeen having fun with KDE svn today and late yesterday; some great stuff there. Great goodies in store for everyone10:03
buzmaybe you could have some fun building firefox deer park for qt?10:03
apokryphos:|10:03
JohnFluxapokryphos: there won't be another major release for at least a year - so enjoy it ;)10:04
nikkiabuz, that is a very warped sense of fun10:04
buzfirefox qt would rock badly10:04
apokryphosJohnFlux: Heh, I'll update more regularly10:05
apokryphosmight be worth using unstable as my default account, even, if I get adventurous account10:05
seth_kbah, just missed _StarScream10:05
apokryphosunstable kde on unstable breezy; nice10:05
JohnFluxapokryphos: well the kde4 branch will be where things will be happen, and that won't be stable for ages10:05
apokryphosexcellent10:05
JohnFluxapokryphos: but at the end of august we are all going to spain so expect there to be lots and lots of work done :)10:06
JohnFluxapokryphos: I personally will be working on plug-and-play - I intend to get it all working10:07
apokryphosJohnFlux: Nice :). Would have been nice to have gone to aKademy; shame I don't really have any "real-life" KDE friends to go with ;-)10:08
hussambuz: would you try compiling it?10:08
JohnFluxapokryphos: :)10:08
buzaint got the time10:08
buzmaybe next week10:08

buzyes10:10
buzlast for a while anyway10:10
JohnFluxapokryphos: it annoys me that you should ever have to use the command line10:10
apokryphosJohnFlux: is it too late to book? Had a sneaking idea that I'd maybe go with my brother if I was adventurous enough10:10
JohnFluxapokryphos: most of my work in kde is to make it easier to use10:10
JohnFluxapokryphos: well its mostly for kde developers10:11
apokryphosJohnFlux: I think it would be really great to be able not to :)10:11
JohnFluxapokryphos: 4 of the days are just coding10:11
apokryphosJohnFlux: but users as well, no?10:11
JohnFluxapokryphos: the other 3 days are talks about what to do 10:11
JohnFluxapokryphos: :)10:11
apokryphosDot article, as I recall, said all users were invited to come10:11
apokryphosheh10:11
JohnFluxapokryphos: :)  It's not too late to book10:11
nikkiaJohnFlux: i hope they have the talking days first :P10:11

=== hussam [~Hussam@194.126.31.19] has left #kubuntu []
apokryphosYah. I guess it'll get better, as all Linux will with drivers, over time10:42
apokryphosThough setting up drivers doesn't really take me any time, while in Windows after the original installation I'd have to spend just under an hour with all the CDs10:42
nikkiaapokryphos: *shrug* i thoguht that in 1994, look where we are now :/10:42
nikkiaactually, the driver situation has improved since then, IF YOU STILL HAVE 1994 HARDWARE :P10:43
apokryphosnikkia: it's not that bad is it? My dad gave up with RedHat {somenumber} a couple of years ago originally because of driver incompatibility10:44
nikkiaapokryphos: it is that bad, if you're not using the big name hardware10:44
apokryphos..but we haven't had any problems, this year, really. And it's on 6 comps10:44
nikkiaapokryphos: the problem is, we, as geeks, tend to buy the best hardware, or that we know is 'quality', and so we tend to use a narrow subset of the hardware, a subset that tends to have the best driver support10:44
apokryphosApart from laptops, our hardware isn't big names though, really, at all. We build all of ours10:44
nikkiaapokryphos: i don't mean the badge on the front10:45
apokryphosI guess it'd be prone to that, yeah10:45
