bluenodehi19:16
holsteinhey bluenode19:16
bluenodeI have a question about main difference between ubuntu studio and standard ubuntu19:16
bluenodein kernel19:17
holsteinthe short answer is19:17
holsteinnothing19:17
holsteinhttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudioPreparation19:17
bluenodebut this "low latency"19:17
holsteinyou might learn something from reading this19:17
holsteinthe kernel section19:17
holsteinAFAIK19:18
holsteinubuntustudio 10.04 ships with a generic kernel19:18
bluenodethanks19:18
holsteinbluenode: i suggest to users19:18
bluenodeI have been using ubuntu studio 7.0419:18
holsteinthat they try the generic one19:18
holsteinand then move up as needed19:18
holsteinif latency is an issue19:18
holsteinbluenode: thats great, are you on lucid now?19:19
bluenodein 7.04 i noticed the faster response19:19
bluenodeI am now on 8.0419:19
bluenodeLTS19:19
holsteincool19:19
holsteinhardy is pretty sweet19:19
bluenodeand going to install 10.04 in hours19:20
bluenodebut will make dual boot with 8.0419:20
holsteinhope you enjoy19:20
holsteinbluenode: i think thats a great idea19:20
holsteinkeep the old OS around for backup19:20
bluenodemany programs i use are working with strange configurations in 8.0419:20
bluenodeso i suspect that new system will not run them19:21
bluenodebut recently all new versions of software requires new libraries19:21
holsteini guess that depends on the apps19:22
holsteinsome of them really have not changed much in years19:22
holsteinothers are TOTALLY differetn19:22
holsteindifferent*19:22
bluenodei use more graphics than audio19:22
holsteinAH19:22
bluenodefor example wacom19:22
holsteinwell, i think you'll find the updates very helpful19:23
holsteini feel thats where the most developement has been noticable19:23
holsteinBUT i have no first hand experience really19:23
* holstein is an audio guy19:23
bluenodei am graphics19:24
bluenodebut need audio for projects19:24
bluenode-not for recording from environment19:24
holsteinim interested in what you think19:24
bluenodeonly softsynth19:24
holsteincoming from the last LTS to the new one19:25
holsteinlet us know :)19:25
bluenodeok i will report19:25
bluenodebut i have on my hdd downloaded only ubuntu "standard" 10.0419:25
bluenodeand must download studio version,19:26
holsteincheck out19:26
holstein!vanilla19:26
ubottuTo install Ubuntu Studio on top of a vanilla Ubuntu install, read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/Installation19:26
bluenodethe only thing that bother me is "standarization" with normal ubuntu19:26
holsteinyou can use the https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/UpgradingFromHardy19:26
bluenodethe compilation and software writing19:26
holsteinhardy upgrade info19:26
bluenodeupgrade - means that the new system will download on top of 8.04?19:27
holsteini usually do sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio-audio ubuntustudio-audio-plugins ubuntustudio-graphics ubuntustudio-video linux-rt19:27
holsteinnah19:27
bluenode- i will rather burn new dvd19:27
holsteinyou can add whatever metapackages you want to the normal lucid install19:28
bluenodei tried this once, but this broke my system19:28
holsteinyeah?19:28
bluenodei have edubuntu, xubuntu, and ubuntu desktops19:28
bluenodeon one system19:28
bluenodeand this was too much19:29
holsteinyou dont have to get the ubuntu studio desktop19:29
holsteinthe themes19:29
holsteinthats what borked it19:29
holsteini say19:30
holsteinthe ubuntustudio-desktop metapackage19:30
bluenodethat is possible.19:30
holsteinbascially19:30
holsteinyou can just install what you want/use19:30
holsteinsudo apt-get install blender ardour jack linux-rt19:30
holsteinthat kind of thing19:30
bluenodei wish to avoid redundancy19:30
holsteinthats all ubuntu studio is basically19:31
holsteina bundle of packages19:31
bluenodethese packages from synaptic,19:31
bluenodeand this kernel latency?19:31
holsteinfrom synaptic19:31
bluenodeis only needded for external audio?19:31
holsteinor apt19:31
holsteinhowever your comfotable searching/installing19:32
holsteinbluenode: you probably dont need the linux-rt package19:32
holsteinthat was just an example19:32
holsteinim just saying, you can download aind install only the software you use19:32
bluenodei use lmms19:33
bluenodefor anything audio19:33
bluenodeand audacity19:33
holsteinthats a great example19:33
holsteini dont think lmms is in the metapackage anyways19:33
bluenodethis is rather minimal, but lmms is very user-friendly19:33
bluenodewith low effort someone can make track that resemble takkyu ishino music:P19:34
holsteinSO you can do sudo apt-get install lmms blender audactiy19:34
bluenodemy audio is only for "background"19:34
bluenodeok.19:34
holsteinyou dont need the 1GB+ of audio apps that you dont use19:35
bluenodethere is so many...19:35
holsteinyup19:35
holsteinall kinds of plugins19:36
bluenodeubuntu studio is offical, openartistlinux is not-19:36
bluenodeit uses 9.1019:36
bluenodejust thinking19:37
holsteinthats something to consider19:38
bluenodei am dedicated ubuntu user19:38
holstein:)19:38
bluenodeearlier i used mandrake19:38
bluenodethen switched to ubuntu around 7.04 studio19:39
holsteinthats about when i found it too19:39
bluenode7.04 alllowed me to plug my wacom19:40
bluenodewithout any problems, standard ubuntu required fightting with xorg.conf19:40
holsteininteresting19:40
bluenode-of course i will let know how it work in 10.0419:40
holsteinyou can probably find those changes somewhere19:41
holsteinALSO19:41
holsteinmaybe the RT kernel was more friendly or updated19:41
holsteinat that time19:41
bluenodeit was very responsive19:42
bluenodemuch more than 8.0419:42
holsteinthe wacom i plugged in just worked19:42
holsteinbluenode: i think the bloat came to a head somewhere around jaunty19:43
holsteinlucid is pretty snappy again i find19:43
bluenodei will test it around beginning of next week - too much things to archivize now19:43
bluenodeoh and rendering issues19:44
bluenodei almost forgot about it19:44
bluenodeubuntu studio is generally "geared to audio"19:44
bluenode?19:44
holsteinnot really19:45
holsteinits trying to be for all artist really19:45
holsteinjust a collection of common audio, video and graphics packages19:46
holsteinand some tweaks here and there19:46
holsteinLIKE the network manager is removed19:46
holsteinand the art and themes are usually very nice19:46
holsteineven though i dont use them19:46
bluenodei simply render from command line.19:46
holsteincool19:46
bluenodeok i must fly away now, but will return for small report about experiences with 10.0419:47
holsteingood luck19:48
bluenodethanks:)19:48
