duncanidaho1 | suddenly I cannot see any text created in gimp. I cannot paint a white canvas with another color on a new layer or otherwise...any ideas? | 01:30 |
---|---|---|
rlameiro | duncanidaho1: maybe you hide it on the layers | 01:30 |
rlameiro | i am not a gimp expert | 01:30 |
rlameiro | just a guess | 01:30 |
duncanidaho1 | no the layers are all visable | 01:32 |
rlameiro | did you check the color of the text? | 01:33 |
duncanidaho1 | yep | 01:33 |
rlameiro | well | 01:33 |
rlameiro | sorry | 01:33 |
duncanidaho1 | I can't even paint | 01:33 |
rlameiro | I am not really an expert | 01:34 |
rlameiro | maybe | 01:34 |
rlameiro | save and open it again | 01:34 |
rlameiro | ... | 01:34 |
rlameiro | dont really know | 01:34 |
rlameiro | i am an audio guy | 01:34 |
duncanidaho1 | ok thanks | 01:34 |
duncanidaho1 | oh do you use audacity or ardour? | 01:34 |
rlameiro | sometimes | 01:34 |
rlameiro | yes | 01:34 |
duncanidaho1 | what do you prefer to use? | 01:35 |
rlameiro | Ardour | 01:36 |
rlameiro | but ardour is a more "professional" tool | 01:36 |
rlameiro | it depends what you want to do | 01:36 |
adorabelle | ubuntu-studio 9.10... when jack is turned off (using alsa), sometimes after a while, sound just simply stops working for a given application (vlc, in this case). have to restart the app to get sound back :/ | 03:34 |
rlameiro | adorabelle: tha only hapens to me using flash in the browser | 03:36 |
adorabelle | yeah, i've had it happen with flash as well | 03:36 |
adorabelle | any ideas on the cause? | 03:36 |
rlameiro | nope | 03:37 |
adorabelle | hmm | 03:37 |
rlameiro | just waiting for the new release of 10.10 | 03:37 |
rlameiro | :D | 03:37 |
adorabelle | when is that due out? | 03:37 |
rlameiro | jack works well so | 03:37 |
rlameiro | april | 03:37 |
adorabelle | yeah, i'd rather have everything possible running through jack | 03:37 |
rlameiro | sorry i said 10.10 | 03:37 |
rlameiro | its 10.4 | 03:38 |
adorabelle | ah | 03:38 |
* adorabelle waits anxiously | 03:38 | |
rlameiro | adorabelle: you could try and help testing the alpha release :D | 03:38 |
adorabelle | it'll be like christmas morning :) | 03:38 |
adorabelle | if i had another machine to mess with it on, i would | 03:38 |
adorabelle | although, i'm picking up a macbook pro shortly, so i'll be able to free up this machine, so maybe i can | 03:39 |
rlameiro | please do | 03:39 |
rlameiro | i am waiting for my 2nd hdd for my laptop to do testing also | 03:39 |
adorabelle | if you get to it before i do, let me know how it works out :) | 03:41 |
rlameiro | people are sying that the alpha release is very nice | 03:43 |
rlameiro | altough i dont know if jack is really prepared on the alpha | 03:43 |
adorabelle | *nod* | 03:44 |
guber | howdy folks...i'm new to ubuntu studio...having trouble starting jack. Is there a standard newbie page? I installed the linux-rt kernel and rebooted and cant run qjackctl unless i run it as root or untick the [] realtime option and then i get a steady flow of xruns without even running ardour or anything | 06:32 |
holstein | guber: hey | 06:33 |
guber | I installed the linux-rt kernel but uname -r shows: 2.6.31-20-generic | 06:33 |
guber | holstein: hey | 06:33 |
holstein | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudioPreparation | 06:33 |
holstein | take a look at these suggestions | 06:33 |
guber | holstein: thanks, i'll check it out | 06:33 |
holstein | the root thing is probably permissions | 06:34 |
holstein | and hopefully the xruns is limits.conf related | 06:34 |
guber | holstein: i probly should have mentioned i installed Ubuntu Studio via a regular ubuntu install and got the ubuntustudio-desktop pakages | 06:34 |
holstein | guber: check out #opensourcemusicians for more help :) | 06:35 |
holstein | guber: me too | 06:35 |
guber | ok, cool | 06:35 |
holstein | you just gotta do some more tweaking | 06:35 |
holstein | i prefer that method | 06:35 |
holstein | upgrading from a standard install | 06:35 |
guber | holstein: yeah, my arch box ran jack as user in real time with a preemp kernel with no problems or tweaking | 06:36 |
adorabelle | most likely you're not a member of the "audio" group or some such | 06:36 |
holstein | sudo adduser username audio | 06:37 |
holstein | something like that | 06:37 |
adorabelle | erm... not quite, but i think that doc probably details it | 06:37 |
holstein | hey adorabelle | 06:37 |
adorabelle | hi | 06:37 |
adorabelle | i just cheat and vi /etc/group, append my username to the appropriate group, logout, log back in :) | 06:37 |
guber | adorabelle: nope, i just added audio group and still the same error | 06:38 |
holstein | guber: what audio device? | 06:38 |
guber | gonna read that page now | 06:38 |
holstein | firewire? | 06:38 |
adorabelle | *nod* guber i ended up adding myself to the root group.. the audio device permissions were root only and wasn't sure the ubuntu-approved method to fix it. | 06:38 |
guber | holstein: CAD u37 usb condensor mic | 06:38 |
adorabelle | i was in a rush to get it working, that worked... | 06:38 |
guber | adorabelle: i'm about one headache away from going back to arch | 06:39 |
holstein | hehe | 06:39 |
holstein | guber: is this lucid? | 06:39 |
adorabelle | i know, i had a few headaches and head-scratching moments when setting it up too... | 06:39 |
guber | holstein: karmic | 06:39 |
holstein | ive been hoping to have time to install lucid and check out the studio packages | 06:40 |
guber | i might try AV Linux...that guy actually makes a good setup | 06:40 |
guber | i've used it before | 06:40 |
holstein | karmic is technically a testing version | 06:40 |
holstein | not a long-term support | 06:40 |
holstein | w00t | 06:40 |
holstein | yeah, i liked AV too :) | 06:40 |
guber | yeah, karmic sux | 06:41 |
holstein | thats what im running now | 06:41 |
holstein | and its going well | 06:41 |
guber | i think you just helped me seal the deal...gonna stop wrestling with this karmic kaka and go with AV Linux, if that fails i'm goin back to Arch | 06:42 |
guber | i dont need much for a one mic input :) | 06:42 |
holstein | dont tell anyone ;) | 06:42 |
holstein | really, you should check out lucid though | 06:42 |
guber | holstein: heheh | 06:42 |
