| Lcawte | Oh, lucky guess | 21:05 |
|---|---|---|
| Lcawte | What is Ubuntu Studio, it seems like an OS aimed at like video making etc.. | 21:05 |
| Lcawte | !en | 21:07 |
| ubottu | The #ubuntu, #kubuntu and #xubuntu channels are English only. For a complete list of channels in other languages, please visit http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat | 21:07 |
| holstein | hello Lcawte | 21:27 |
| Lcawte | wat? | 21:27 |
| Lcawte | ugh, sorry that wat? was from my sister | 21:28 |
| Lcawte | While I was downstairs | 21:29 |
| Lcawte | hi holstein | 21:29 |
| holstein | lol | 21:29 |
| holstein | no worries | 21:30 |
| holstein | you checking out ubuntu studio? | 21:30 |
| Lcawte | well, having a look at it and wondering, yeah | 21:31 |
| Lcawte | I've always been interested in getting some proper tools | 21:31 |
| holstein | it would be nice to have a live CD | 21:32 |
| holstein | if you want | 21:32 |
| holstein | you could look at someting like 64studio's live CD | 21:32 |
| holstein | there is a 3.x beta version | 21:32 |
| holstein | based on ubuntu hardy | 21:32 |
| holstein | that is pretty similar | 21:33 |
| Lcawte | hm, yeah, I was thinking of burning a copy of it to a CD | 21:33 |
| holstein | you can just add the studio packages to a vanilla ubuntu install too | 21:33 |
| Lcawte | does normal ubuntu have anything to burn ISO's by default? Or shall I do it on my winows machine | 21:33 |
| holstein | !vanilla | 21:33 |
| ubottu | To install Ubuntu Studio on top of a vanilla Ubuntu install, read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/Installation | 21:33 |
| meganerd | I don't think 64Studio has a live disk anymore | 21:33 |
| holstein | meganerd: yeah? | 21:34 |
| holstein | i havent checke in a while | 21:34 |
| meganerd | not with their 3.x beta | 21:34 |
| holstein | OH yeah | 21:34 |
| meganerd | I am using 64Studio on my main DAW | 21:34 |
| Lcawte | vanilla ubuntu.. is that normal ubuntu? | 21:34 |
| holstein | you are right | 21:34 |
| holstein | you would need the 2.x | 21:34 |
| holstein | and thats not as much like ubuntu | 21:34 |
| meganerd | the 3 beta is based on hardy, so you probably want that one anyway | 21:34 |
| holstein | but not unlike it really | 21:34 |
| meganerd | it is pretty stable but even the 3.0 beta is getting long in the tooth | 21:35 |
| holstein | Lcawte: yup, vanilla = plain old ubuntu | 21:35 |
| Lcawte | kewl | 21:35 |
| meganerd | 2.x is based on Debian, not a huge difference but it is quite old now | 21:35 |
| holstein | meganerd: i had several issues that were not resolved | 21:35 |
| holstein | on 64studio | 21:35 |
| holstein | i was checking it out back when ubuntu studio did not ship with the RT kernel | 21:36 |
| Lcawte | Ok, the packages is just the software? I've already messed up 2 configurations of ubuntu this week :P | 21:36 |
| holstein | Lcawte: hehe | 21:36 |
| Lcawte | holstein: not funny, for me anyway | 21:36 |
| holstein | yup, he studio software comes in meta-packages | 21:36 |
| holstein | so you can install one meta-package, and get a lot of the studio software | 21:37 |
| meganerd | I used the studio meta package on my laptop | 21:37 |
| holstein | there are a few of the packages | 21:37 |
| holstein | if you go to synaptic | 21:37 |
| Lcawte | kewl... what command line do I need :P | 21:37 |
| holstein | and search ubuntustudio | 21:37 |
| holstein | or sudo apt-cache search ubuntustudio | 21:37 |
| holstein | you can read about them | 21:38 |
| meganerd | holstein: what issues? I still prefer it for a pure DAW, | 21:38 |
| holstein | you can get just the stuff you need for what your going to be doing | 21:38 |
| holstein | that link... | 21:38 |
| holstein | !vanilla | 21:38 |
| ubottu | To install Ubuntu Studio on top of a vanilla Ubuntu install, read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/Installation | 21:38 |
| holstein | has all the pakcages listed | 21:38 |
| holstein | they are named the same from hardy to karmic | 21:39 |
| holstein | and lucid too i bet | 21:39 |
| holstein | meganerd: i had a build error in 64 | 21:39 |
| Lcawte | ok, that confuses me.. | 21:39 |
| holstein | Lcawte: you can sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio-whateveryouwant | 21:40 |
| Lcawte | which one do I want? | 21:40 |
| holstein | that all depends really | 21:40 |
| holstein | i do audio recording | 21:40 |
| Lcawte | if I did: sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio would that get me like all of it? | 21:40 |
| Lcawte | Animation, Graphics, I'll try whatever | 21:40 |
| holstein | i got ubuntustudio-audio ubuntustudio-audio-plugins | 21:40 |
| holstein | that kind of thing | 21:40 |
| holstein | you would want the graphics ones | 21:40 |
| holstein | ubuntustudio-graphics ubuntustudio-video | 21:41 |
| holstein | its not goint to hurt anything to get them all | 21:41 |
| Lcawte | how do I get them all :P | 21:41 |
| holstein | if you have space for them | 21:41 |
| Lcawte | err is over 100GB enough | 21:42 |
| holstein | i would do... | 21:42 |
| holstein | sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio-audio ubuntustudio-audio-plugins ubuntustudio-graphics ubuntustudio-video | 21:42 |
| holstein | the only 2 your not getting there are | 21:42 |
| holstein | ubuntustudio-desktop | 21:43 |
| holstein | which is the themeing | 21:43 |
| Lcawte | kewl | 21:43 |
| meganerd | I am not a big of the UBS theme | 21:43 |
| holstein | which is actually very nice by the way | 21:43 |
| meganerd | too dark for me | 21:43 |
| holstein | but yeah, i dont like it either | 21:43 |
| meganerd | it looks cool but I find it hard to use for any length of time | 21:43 |
| holstein | but still, pretty slick looking | 21:43 |
| holstein | also Lcawte | 21:44 |
| meganerd | no argument here, it is cool looking | 21:44 |
| holstein | you would want to get the real time kernel for serious audio work | 21:44 |
| Lcawte | yes? | 21:44 |
| holstein | adding linux-rt to that list | 21:44 |
| Lcawte | I'm just trying the stuff for the moment | 21:44 |
| holstein | yeah | 21:44 |
| holstein | you can check it all out without it | 21:44 |
| Lcawte | ugh, Firefox, I dont want to restart yet, let me install all the stuff I need to first | 21:46 |
| Lcawte | installing | 21:47 |
| Lcawte | so how can I get involved with Ubuntu and Ubuntu Studio... | 21:48 |
| holstein | the mailing list is rather active | 21:48 |
| holstein | if your talking about coding and that kind of thing | 21:49 |
| holstein | thats where i would ask | 21:49 |
| Lcawte | Coding, CSS is about as far as I can do.. other languages dont like me as much | 21:51 |
| holstein | testing and reporting is always helpful | 21:51 |
| Lcawte | Graphics work, MediaWiki :P | 21:51 |
| Lcawte | reporting and testing could work... | 21:52 |
| * Lcawte goes to ebay and buys a few old machines, and sticks different linux OS' on them | 21:52 | |
| holstein | cool | 21:52 |
| holstein | theres a goodwill computer outlet | 21:52 |
| holstein | not too far from me | 21:52 |
| holstein | lots of cheap boxes in various states of repair | 21:53 |
| Lcawte | I've always been interested in OS's other than Windows, but now i've seen the fiddlyness of Ubuntu.. I'm starting to regret it :P | 21:53 |
| holstein | yeah | 21:53 |
| holstein | stick it out if you can | 21:53 |
| holstein | how long have you been using it? | 21:53 |
| holstein | linux? | 21:53 |
| holstein | in general | 21:53 |
| holstein | i use to fiddle with installing strange components | 21:54 |
| holstein | putting linux on old boxes | 21:54 |
| holstein | when i started running it on newer hardware | 21:54 |
| holstein | its a lot easier | 21:55 |
| Lcawte | not too long xD | 21:55 |
| holstein | like, installing windows on something takes a long time for me | 21:55 |
| holstein | to go around and find/install all the drivers | 21:55 |
| holstein | if the linux kernel supports all the hardware | 21:55 |
| holstein | boom | 21:55 |
| holstein | its very easy | 21:55 |
| holstein | if not, then you got to pick your battles | 21:56 |
| holstein | and or course, doing some research before buying hardware helps | 21:56 |
| holstein | i got my girlfriend an HP mininote | 21:56 |
| holstein | came with SUSE | 21:56 |
| holstein | i thought it would be easy | 21:56 |
| holstein | but its got VIA chips | 21:56 |
| holstein | its challenging | 21:56 |
| holstein | BUT my asus EEE is out-of-the-box | 21:57 |
| holstein | and the mininote is not that bad really | 21:57 |
| holstein | my other boxes are all supported too | 21:58 |
| holstein | id way rather install linux on a box than windows | 21:58 |
| holstein | now-a-days | 21:58 |
| Lcawte | lol | 21:58 |
| holstein | much easier | 21:58 |
| holstein | and i know i dont have to do it again ever really | 21:58 |
| holstein | unless i just want to | 21:59 |
| holstein | no resgistry BS | 21:59 |
| Lcawte | I havnt really set up anything by myself than this ubuntu, the others cam pre-installed =.= | 21:59 |
| Lcawte | I've seen it done though | 21:59 |
| holstein | well, like anything else | 21:59 |
| holstein | it gets easier | 21:59 |
| holstein | its just different | 21:59 |
| holstein | if you like windows, you like windows, and thats cool | 21:59 |
| holstein | but the install and configuring in linux gets easier as you get more experience | 22:00 |
| holstein | i found a lot of help on IRC | 22:01 |
| holstein | you got a local ubuntu channel? | 22:01 |
| holstein | im in north carolina | 22:02 |
| holstein | we got a #ubuntu-us-nc channel | 22:02 |
| Lcawte | I just use #ubuntu | 22:02 |
| holstein | it can be challenging to get a word in there at #ubuntu | 22:02 |
| Lcawte | yeah | 22:02 |
| Lcawte | I'm guessing my local channel is #ubuntu-uk < United Kingdom? | 22:03 |
| holstein | http://loco.ubuntu.com/teams/ | 22:04 |
| holstein | OH yeah | 22:04 |
| holstein | thats a great channel | 22:04 |
| holstein | i hang in there too | 22:04 |
| holstein | theres a great podcast too | 22:04 |
| holstein | http://podcast.ubuntu-uk.org/ | 22:04 |
| Lcawte | I would hang in more channels, but I'm getting sleepy and I've just downloaded my IRC client, and dont have time to reboot tonight | 22:04 |
| holstein | you got plenty of time | 22:05 |
| holstein | IRC's not going anywere | 22:05 |
| Lcawte | /we hope/ | 22:05 |
| Lcawte | I'm probally going to have to leave this installing things all night and turn it off tommorow | 22:08 |
| holstein | yup | 22:08 |
| holstein | took an hour or so i think when i did it | 22:09 |
| Lcawte | anyway, good night | 22:10 |
