| rizzle | trying to get studio working right, driving me nuts | 05:14 |
| rizzle | hi kbn | 05:15 |
| doctormo | Hey guys | 05:21 |
| rizzle | sup | 05:22 |
| doctormo | I noticed that in the ubuntu studio logo I had, there was a whole pile of unused defs (3600 of them) causing 800KB of bloat of svgs made with it. I want to check and make sure it's not an upstream problem too. | 05:22 |
| rebirth | how can i tell if i have puredata extended version, and if i don't how do i install it? | 08:18 |
| ubuverify | how do i verify ubuntustudio is properly installed? | 12:40 |
| Pablo | ubuverify: why do you think it could be not properly installed? | 12:46 |
| ubuverify | i don't have an "RT" listed in grub...windows black out... | 12:47 |
| Pablo | Have you installed ubuntustudio trough the metapackages, from normal ubuntu? | 12:48 |
| ubuverify | from normal 10.4 using console commands listed on the site.. | 12:48 |
| Pablo | OK | 12:48 |
| Pablo | please open a terminal | 12:49 |
| ubuverify | k | 12:49 |
| Pablo | ls /boot | grep linuz | 12:50 |
| Pablo | Is there the rt? | 12:50 |
| Pablo | 2.6.31.10-rt, I think | 12:50 |
| ubuverify | vmlinuz-2.6.32-21-generic vmlinuz-2.6.32-23-generic | 12:51 |
| ubuverify | how the heck did i get that ^^ | 12:51 |
| Pablo | You have two linux versions installed | 12:51 |
| Pablo | both are generic ones | 12:51 |
| ubuverify | ew.. | 12:51 |
| ubuverify | that would cause some issues, excessive cpu use... | 12:52 |
| Pablo | Well, linux-rt is not compulsory to work with audio apps, but it could be convenient | 12:52 |
| ubuverify | how do i correct this without formatting and re-installing? | 12:53 |
| Pablo | you don't have to do that | 12:53 |
| Pablo | wait | 12:53 |
| ubuverify | i do want a real time kernal.. it was much faster and multi tasking was seamless | 12:53 |
| Pablo | if you want to try ubuntu with the rt kernel, just install it with | 12:54 |
| Pablo | sudo apt-get install linux-rt | 12:54 |
| Pablo | you should see this as a grub option when at boot | 12:54 |
| ubuverify | why didnt it do that when i tried to install ubuntustudio over 10.4? | 12:55 |
| Pablo | because, afaik, linux-rt is out of the ubuntustudio-audio metapackage | 12:55 |
| ubuverify | =/ it wasnt like that when i first tried ubuntustudio... | 12:56 |
| Pablo | devs will know better the reason why they left it out | 12:56 |
| Pablo | you are right | 12:56 |
| ubuverify | oh well..let me try this aptget | 12:56 |
| Pablo | in lucid is out. In karmic was in, IIRC | 12:56 |
| Pablo | but that apt-get is ALL you need | 12:57 |
| Pablo | and probably, once installed, just in case do a | 12:57 |
| Pablo | sudo update-grub | 12:57 |
| ubuverify | kk | 12:58 |
| ubuverify | yup that did it, i should be able to boot the rt module now | 12:59 |
| ubuverify | lol i think it may be trying to make 8.04 an rt as well?? | 13:00 |
| ubuverify | i'ma reboot and see what happend xD | 13:01 |
| === Traveler0 is now known as ubuverify | ||
| ubuverify | ty | 13:09 |
| Pablo | hi | 13:09 |
| ubuverify | xD | 13:10 |
| Pablo | :D | 13:10 |
| ubuverify | yes much better | 13:10 |
| ubuverify | now i'm trying to figure out why i am having connection issues.. | 13:10 |
| Pablo | wired or wireless? | 13:11 |
| Traveler6 | i reset my conection..just noticed the dns servers weren't updated... | 13:17 |
| === Traveler6 is now known as ubuverify | ||
| Pablo | cool | 13:17 |
| ubuverify | let me see if i still have issues | 13:18 |
| Pablo | connection issues are not my strong point anyway. I can't be of much help here | 13:18 |
| ubuverify | aw.. | 13:19 |
| ubuverify | =/ well upload is still hanging... | 13:19 |
| ubuverify | i've been trying to update a pc from 8.04 to 10.4 it seems to be frozen...and is connected to the internet thruough this pc...could that cause issues? | 13:21 |
| ubuverify | and ty pablo for your help.. i've been googling the crap out of that rt kernal fix.. | 13:22 |
| Pablo | you are welcome! | 13:23 |
| hugo | hi | 20:49 |
| hugo | im going to try out ubuntu studio | 20:49 |
| hugo | :) | 20:49 |
| hugo | ive been using arch linux for quite some time, but i cannot run VST's in it | 20:50 |
| hugo | is it possible to run VST's with ubuntu studio ? | 20:50 |
| ScottL | hugo, you can compile ardour to use vst's but i've heard it is crashy | 21:06 |
| ScottL | there are other applications that can compile as hosts to vst (faust or something like that) which require wine as well | 21:07 |
| ScottL | i'm not an expert with vst's though | 21:07 |
| hugo | hmm | 21:07 |
| hugo | i mostly use renoise | 21:07 |
| hugo | but renoise requires the steinberg sdk | 21:07 |
| hugo | which i cannot install in arch linux :/ | 21:07 |
| holstein | hugo: check out http://www.linuxdsp.co.uk/ | 21:08 |
| ScottL | you might try #opensourcemusicians and ask there, metric tronnes of knowledgeable and experienced people there | 21:08 |
| holstein | the JACK versions are free | 21:08 |
| hugo | allright :) | 21:08 |
| ScottL | speaking of OSM, here is holstein :) | 21:08 |
| ScottL | cheers mate | 21:08 |
| holstein | personally i dont miss any of my old favorite VST's | 21:08 |
| holstein | but i dont need instruments | 21:08 |
| holstein | just effects | 21:08 |
| holstein | ScottL: :) | 21:08 |
| hugo | hmm | 21:08 |
| hugo | yes, i could also do that | 21:09 |
| hugo | record everything i need | 21:09 |
| holstein | http://wootangent.net/category/music/tutorials/ | 21:09 |
| holstein | if your into MIDI more | 21:09 |
| holstein | these are some nice tutorials done by [lsd] over at #opensourcemuscians | 21:09 |
| ScottL | hugo, just so you know, holstein is one of the guys i thought could help you on #opensourcemusicians | 21:10 |
| hugo | :D | 21:10 |
| ScottL | ace, that one | 21:11 |
| * holstein stands on the shoulders of giants | 21:11 | |
| ScottL | hugo, i've also heard about running reaper under wine to use VST's | 21:11 |
| hugo | hmm | 21:11 |
| hugo | reaper i dont know | 21:11 |
| hugo | ok, so ill stand on the shoulders of holstein and refrain myself from installing windows | 21:12 |
| holstein | from what i read, it really depends on the VST's | 21:12 |
| holstein | and what they need | 21:12 |
| holstein | i know it sucks learning new softwareb | 21:12 |
| holstein | but i would suggest looking for FOSS replacements | 21:12 |
| hugo | hmm | 21:13 |
| hugo | what do you recomend to record ? | 21:13 |
| holstein | audio? | 21:13 |
| hugo | i have a bad microphone and a beringer table | 21:13 |
| hugo | software | 21:13 |
| hugo | im using audacity | 21:13 |
| holstein | yeah, audio or MIDI sequencing? | 21:14 |
| hugo | audio | 21:14 |
| holstein | audio | 21:14 |
| hugo | sorry | 21:14 |
| holstein | ardour is the deal | 21:14 |
| hugo | ah, allright | 21:14 |
| holstein | i call audacity a 'gateway drug' though | 21:14 |
| hugo | :D | 21:14 |
| hugo | gateway drug ? | 21:14 |
| holstein | if its working for you | 21:14 |
| holstein | use it | 21:14 |
| holstein | when you need more | 21:14 |
| holstein | then you can move on to ardour | 21:14 |
| holstein | hugo: have you checked out JACK? | 21:15 |
| hugo | yes, but i dont understand it much | 21:15 |
| holstein | http://jackaudio.org/ | 21:15 |
| holstein | OK | 21:15 |
| holstein | hugo: thats where i would suggest starting | 21:15 |
| holstein | getting JACK up and running | 21:15 |
| hugo | allright | 21:16 |
| ScottL | traverso is also in the repositories | 21:16 |
| ScottL | i think of traverso as a bridge between audacity and ardour (alhtough closer to audacity) | 21:16 |
| hugo | maybe i dont have to switch to ubuntustudio and keep arch installed if i manage to install it right | 21:16 |
| holstein | ScottL: true | 21:16 |
| holstein | more features, but not overkill on a newb | 21:16 |
| holstein | ardour is quite amazing | 21:17 |
| holstein | but has a learning curve for sure | 21:17 |
| * holstein checked out the renoise demo | 21:17 | |
| holstein | that looks nice too | 21:17 |
| hugo | allright :) | 21:18 |
| holstein | you should be able to get JACK running with whatever distro | 21:18 |
| holstein | then things will get easier | 21:18 |
| Pablo | no me entra tu archivo | 21:20 |
| * holstein is running out he door now | 21:20 | |
| Pablo | Oops! sorry | 21:20 |
| holstein | hugo: i'll help you get JACK running sometime though | 21:20 |
| hugo | :) | 21:20 |
| hugo | im reading some docs on the web | 21:20 |
| hugo | http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pro_Audio | 21:21 |
| hugo | these | 21:21 |
| holstein | yeah | 21:22 |
| holstein | you can try just starting JACK | 21:22 |
| holstein | if your in ubuntu | 21:22 |
| holstein | hugo: are you still in arch? | 21:22 |
| hugo | yes | 21:22 |
| hugo | im about to download ubuntustudio | 21:22 |
| holstein | sure | 21:22 |
| holstein | either way, you need to install jackd | 21:22 |
| holstein | and its dependancies | 21:22 |
| holstein | its easier in ubuntu or ubuntustudio | 21:23 |
| holstein | i find | 21:23 |
| holstein | but stuzz could help you in arch | 21:23 |
| hugo | great :) | 21:24 |
| holstein | glancing over that guide | 21:24 |
| holstein | it should do the trick | 21:24 |
| holstein | anyways | 21:25 |
| * holstein BBL | 21:25 | |
| hugo | :) thanks | 21:25 |
