|---|---|---|
| holstein | hey timmy54321 | 16:52 |
| timmy54321 | ive just got ubuntu studio anyone tell me any cool stuff i can try | 16:54 |
| holstein | what were you using before timmy54321 ? | 16:55 |
| timmy54321 | standard ubuntu 9.10 | 16:55 |
| holstein | OK | 16:55 |
| holstein | what are you interested? | 16:56 |
| holstein | in doing ? | 16:56 |
| holstein | audio/video? | 16:56 |
| holstein | graphics? | 16:56 |
| timmy54321 | all | 16:56 |
| holstein | well | 16:56 |
| holstein | a couple things... | 16:56 |
| holstein | ubuntu studio is no different than ubuntu | 16:57 |
| holstein | its just ubuntu with extra software | 16:57 |
| timmy54321 | apart from the default | 16:57 |
| holstein | meta-packages | 16:57 |
| holstein | !vanilla | 16:57 |
| ubottu | To install Ubuntu Studio on top of a vanilla Ubuntu install, read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/Installation | 16:57 |
| holstein | you can find these packages listed there | 16:58 |
| holstein | timmy54321: i would suggest starting with some graphics programs | 16:58 |
| holstein | the GIMP | 16:58 |
| holstein | icescape | 16:58 |
| timmy54321 | cool | 16:58 |
| holstein | NOT that these are easy to use necessarily | 16:58 |
| holstein | BUT they are basically click-and-run | 16:59 |
| holstein | the audio end takes some configuring | 16:59 |
| timmy54321 | are you in too your gameing? | 16:59 |
| holstein | i do games much | 16:59 |

| patg | Wireless not working ubuntu studio 64bit macbook pro 4,1. boradcom drivers installed according to hardware devices. any help? | 19:37 |
| rlameiro | patg: wich kernel? | 19:47 |
| patg | um | 20:00 |
| patg | latest? | 20:00 |
| patg | I just downloaded and instaklled yesterday/todays | 20:00 |
| rlameiro | patg: humm | 20:00 |
| rlameiro | wich release, the 9.10? | 20:00 |
| rlameiro | with the RT kernel | 20:01 |
| patg | i think so | 20:01 |
| patg | ubuntu studio x64 9.10 1.5GB | 20:01 |
| rlameiro | because normally you will need to eneable proprietary drivers | 20:01 |
| rlameiro | ok | 20:01 |
| rlameiro | well | 20:01 |
| patg | i did thaTt | 20:01 |
| patg | boradcom drivers are active | 20:01 |
| patg | according to hardware manager | 20:02 |
| rlameiro | ok | 20:02 |
| rlameiro | so what is happening ? | 20:02 |
| patg | or whatever its called. | 20:02 |
| rlameiro | are you trying to connect and it doesnt work? | 20:02 |
| patg | nothing. I have a wired connection atm but when i pull up "network" i enable it, puyt in the essid and pass. then no joy | 20:02 |
| rlameiro | or it stays trying to connect forever? | 20:02 |
| patg | also there is no network applet in the top panel | 20:03 |
| rlameiro | hummm | 20:03 |
| rlameiro | that is strange | 20:03 |
| patg | it doesnt even flash the icon in the panel. | 20:03 |
| patg | it just says ok basically | 20:03 |
| rlameiro | i will advise you to install Wicd | 20:03 |
| rlameiro | but be carefull | 20:04 |
| patg | then nothing | 20:04 |
| rlameiro | download it first | 20:04 |
| rlameiro | dont use the normal ubuntu install | 20:04 |
| patg | sounds frightening | 20:05 |
| rlameiro | sudo apt-get install wicd | 20:06 |
| rlameiro | try it | 20:06 |
| rlameiro | if something goes wrong and you stay withou network | 20:06 |
| rlameiro | you can use the install dvd to reinstall the networkmanager | 20:06 |
| rlameiro | but maybe try to reboot first to see if its some weird block | 20:07 |
| rlameiro | patg: dont be afraid | 20:07 |
| rlameiro | reboot the computer, maybe it will help | 20:08 |
| rlameiro | i am not so expert in this matter, but normally Wicd is easier network manager | 20:08 |
| patg | how do i install just network manager from dvd? | 20:09 |
| patg | if it fails? | 20:10 |
| patg | also, how do I manualkly add network manager applet? | 20:10 |
| patg | this all worked fine under 32 bit GRRRR | 20:15 |
| rlameiro | patg: you need to add the cd to the synaptics package manager | 20:18 |
| rlameiro | then you search on the cd source for network manager and install it | 20:19 |
| rlameiro | patg: I am using 32 bits | 20:19 |
| rlameiro | the problems is taht the driver is proprietary, hence people cant build it for the platforms that are needed and make it work fine | 20:19 |
| rlameiro | this is not ubuntu/linux fault, but broadcom fault | 20:20 |
| rlameiro | patg: you could try to install the 10.04 beta iso | 20:20 |
| rlameiro | and see if it works for you | 20:21 |
| rlameiro | also it would help people testing it out and file bugs :D | 20:21 |
| rlameiro | well, i am going to install th beta now, cya | 20:21 |
| patg | is there a 10.4 beta for studio? | 20:22 |
| rlameiro | patg: yes | 20:22 |
| patg_ | Where can I find? | 20:24 |
| patg_ | (goin mobile) (iPhone) | 20:24 |
| patg_ | Where is 10.4 beta studio ? | 20:29 |
| patg_ | Can I upgrade to 10.4? | 20:33 |
| patg_ | Would 10.4 even possibly fix my wireless issue? Is that more likely than a 32/64 bit issue? | 20:53 |
| patg_ | (I was in here a short time ago) | 20:54 |
| patg_ | patg: Would 10.4 even possibly fix my wireless issue? Is that more likely than a 32/64 bit issue? | 21:30 |
| patrick__ | hello. I am wondering, is there anyone that can help me get wireless working? I am on a frsh instal of ubuntu studio 64bit on a 4,1 macbook pro | 22:04 |
| patrick__ | no network manager applet, restricted hardware is reporting that the driver is installed (broadcom) and it worked fine under regular ubuntu 32 bit with studio packages on top of it | 22:05 |
| patrick__ | ive done all updates, even manually added network details in network app. but in "network tools" app it says im using "lo" and that "eth0" and "pan0" dont exist | 22:07 |
| vlada | why do I get this error when trying to start "startBristol -jack -b3": | 23:08 |
| vlada | Requested Jack drivers, not compiled into bristol | 23:08 |
