[02:32] <rlameiro> ScottL: are you there?
[02:33] <rlameiro> http://realtimeconfigquickscan.googlecode.com/hg/realTimeConfigQuickScan.pl
[02:33] <rlameiro> a script on the arch linux
[02:34] <rlameiro> http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pro_Audio
[02:34] <rlameiro> will test the computer setup for the audio pro settings
[03:35] <ScottL> rlameiro, that's great information, i'll dig into it more tomorrow
[03:36] <rlameiro> ScottL: It could be added to some kind of gui test program to the user
[03:36] <rlameiro> to help to settup the system
[03:36] <rlameiro> something atached to the ubuntustudio controls maybe
[11:36] <ScottL> abogani, I did not explain my intentions completely regarding the kernel testing
[11:36] <ScottL> I thought that given standardized jack settings the lowest stable latency achieved could be recorded
[11:37] <ScottL> along with hardware specifications
[11:37] <ScottL> additionally I was wondering if cyclictest data would be useful as well
[11:38] <ScottL> if this is the case then I would be happy to create documentation that explain to users how to run the test and document the results
[11:40] <ScottL> hopefully lowest latency and hardware information coupled with cyclictest data would allow for correlations to be discovered
[12:47] <abogani> ScottL: It is really hard find correlations when 1) hardware is different 2) workload isn't perfectly reproducible 3) how and for what people use computers change from person to person so what workload we should take as "reference"? ScottL: I find your intentions very laudable _but_ I prefer that you use your time/energy/mental power for other things because I'm not sure that these (record spec and cyclictest results) c
[12:47] <abogani> ould be useful in same way.
[17:48] <abogani> Anyone could list to me packages (related to kernel) that require attention for UbuntuStudio? rtkit? irqbalance? rtirq-init?
[22:19] <ScottL> troy_s, I got my Visual Literacy and Design Basics Index books today, i'm looking forward to starting reading them tonight
[22:19] <troy_s> ScottL: Wow.
[22:19] <troy_s> ScottL: I think you will enjoy the Visual Literacy book.
[22:20] <troy_s> ScottL: The Krause is a good read too - he really has some of the core stuff pushed into his work. The simple elaboration of "Who is it for and what does it need to do"
[22:20] <troy_s> ScottL: If you enjoy them, there is a long line of good reading there.
