[04:05] <Vigo> I have no idea, I am just trying to install,
[04:06] <gurukreff> :P
[04:07] <Vigo> Could it be a JACK thing?
[04:07] <gurukreff> it was
[04:07] <gurukreff> i recently reinstalled lucid
[04:07] <gurukreff> so i could start over and see if i got the problem again... Jack freezed
[04:07] <Vigo> gurukeff: Upgrade or clean?

[04:08] <Vigo> Have you tried Pulse?

[04:08] <gurukreff> *pulseaudio
[04:09] <Vigo> Mind you, I have never installed Studio since , a long time ago, so I was just guessing there.
[04:09] <gurukreff> lol, ok

[12:51] <lau1> hello
[14:03] <pedro> hi, I would like to know if ubuntu studio works well with virtualbox
[14:05] <lau1> did not try this so don't know
[14:08] <pedro> lau1, in fact, I don't know if I need ubuntu studio or only the audio application, I need to record live teachings. I have a very simple sound system...
[14:10] <lau1> the thing is the RT kernel used by ubuntu studio would likely be not efficient behind a VM
[14:14] <pedro> and installing it trhough wubi?
[14:16] <rlameiro> wubi is for general ubuntu
[14:17] <rlameiro> you can install it as you want, it is runnig on the real "hardware" so you can use it at will
[14:17] <rlameiro> wubi just simplifies the installation process for windows users
[14:18] <pedro> i will try wubi
[14:19] <pedro> but, i only need to record live lectures, do i need studio for that?
[14:20] <rlameiro> it depends what you want to do, but if it is only to record using a normal computer microphone and no fancy effects, you dont need studio for that
[14:21] <rlameiro> pedro: es portugues?
[14:21] <pedro> rlameiro, sim
[14:21] <pedro> rlameiro, brasileiro na verdade
[14:21] <rlameiro> pedro: nice :D me too
[14:22] <rlameiro> eu sou portugues
[14:22] <pedro> ah, bacana
[14:22] <rlameiro> well, we should speak in english in here
[14:22] <pedro> oh,ok
[14:22] <rlameiro> well you know you can come in here
[14:22] <lau1> it's ok i'll dio French :p
[14:22] <rlameiro> or come to #ubuntu-pt also
[14:23] <pedro> ok
[15:02] <mydoghasworms> From what I understand, the 2.6 kernel provides realtime capabilities. Does it matter then if you have a special RT kernel?
[15:02] <mydoghasworms> I ask, because I see the fact that Ubuntu Studio has an RT kernel being touted in a few posts.
[15:03] <holstein> hey mydoghasworms
[15:03] <holstein> i suggest trying the generic kernel
[15:04] <holstein> and trying the RT kernel if you need lower latency
[15:04] <holstein> or if your hearing clicks/pops or drop-outs
[15:04] <mydoghasworms> OK, because lower latency is exactly what I am after. Does the rt-kernel package provided in the Ubuntu repositories provide you with the same thing?
[15:05] <holstein> you should be fine doing sudo apt-get install linux-rt
[15:06] <holstein> and check out
[15:06] <mydoghasworms> Ah yes, linux-rt, is the package I meant :-)
[15:06] <holstein> !grub2
[15:08] <holstein> and you cant see the kernels listed in grub at boot
[15:08] <holstein> and remember you can run unamt -a to see what kernel your running
[15:09] <holstein> if you cant* ^^
[15:10] <astraljava> s/unamt -a/uname -a/ :D
[15:15] <holstein> astraljava: thanks
[15:15] <holstein> uname -a ^^^
[15:15]  * holstein should finish coffee, then type ;)
[15:16] <astraljava> I hear ya. :)

[21:16] <Semitones> hey there; I'm looking to buy a laptop in the next few months to run Ubuntu Studio and to be used for DJing and as a regular laptop. Are there any hardware recommendations for Ubuntu Studio?
[22:54] <holstein> Semitones: what audio device?
[22:54] <holstein> if your planning on using a firewire device
[22:55] <holstein> i would look for a texas instruments chip
[22:55] <holstein> OR
[22:55] <holstein> a pcmcia or express card slot
[22:56] <holstein> if not, then i would probably just choose something with intel graphics for simplicity
[22:56] <holstein> i would try and go somewhere and USB boot or boot the live lucid CD on the hardware
[22:58] <holstein> AND check out some places like http://www.system76.com/
[23:29] <andyzweb> I really should be in here too
