[03:18] <makerprofaze> anyone ever use open octave midi?
[06:04] <backharlow> anyone know how well the 10.04 rt kernel works with older nvidia?
[09:17] <vagenende> hi
[09:18] <vagenende> this may sound very stupid but is ubuntustudio an os or just a layer for ubuntu
[09:18] <vagenende> in an other way: do i need to backup my system before installing
[09:55] <astraljava> vagenende: How are you planning to install? If from an .iso, then yes, if only applying the additional packages that constitute the application selection and meta-packages on an existing Ubuntu installation, then no, it's not necessary.
[09:56] <vagenende> i'm going to search the howto for the met-packages, thx for the help
[09:57] <astraljava> vagenende: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudioPreparation might help out in a way.

[10:27] <jussi> that preparation page is a bit weird...
[10:43] <astraljava> jussi: Gotcha.
[12:05] <neitcho> Hi! The low latency/real time patch is it designed to optimise audio or or audio/graphic/video?
[12:22] <zylogz80> hi all! I installed karmic and then upgraded to ubuntu studio via apt right after install. does ubuntu have a graphical grub configuration tool so that I can tell the system to boot into the rt kernel?
[12:25] <neitcho> zylogz80> try "Esc" on boot
[12:26] <zylogz80> neitcho, thanks but I was looking for something to configure grub from within gnome to make the change permanatly
[12:26] <zylogz80> neitcho, not just to select it on boot
[16:01] <holstein> neitcho: i was told that the RT kernel could help with video as well
[16:01] <holstein> i havent really tested it on any level though
[16:02] <neitcho> holstein> ok
