[01:07] <Wiesshund> quick question, for approx 5 year old hardware, 10.04 or 9.10 studio?
[01:12] <holstein> Wiesshund: hmmm
[01:12] <holstein> what are you planning on doing?
[01:12] <holstein> 10.04 over 9.10 i say
[01:13] <Wiesshund> well ive a current workstation, windows based with audition. ive some newer hardware i thought id upgrade it with, and perhaps move it away from windows
[01:14] <Wiesshund> newer meaning about 5 years old, as opposed to its current hardware which is more like 10
[01:15] <Wiesshund> I know there is alot of older stuff that 10.04 has dropped legacy support for.
[01:17] <holstein> Wiesshund: theres no live CD for ubuntustudio
[01:17] <Wiesshund> Im also wondering if ardour would possibly be able to use my audition session files at all
[01:17] <holstein> but i would download the new lucid live CD
[01:18] <holstein> and run some commands with the hardware
[01:18] <holstein> and see if its all recognized
[01:18] <holstein> Wiesshund: you can ask over in #ardour
[01:18] <holstein> but i sersously dought that
[01:18] <holstein> you can export to .wav
[01:18] <holstein> and import though
[01:19] <holstein> Wiesshund: what hardware?
[01:19] <Wiesshund> Ive got both 10.04 and 9.10 live cd's here, supposed i could easily just do an "upgrade" to studio by adding the appropriate packages and the low latency kernel
[01:19] <holstein> if your sound device is listed at http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Main
[01:19] <holstein> your good to go
[01:19] <holstein> pretty much
[01:20] <holstein> Wiesshund: you might not need the kernel
[01:20] <Wiesshund> holstein going to update it to an nvidia nforce 3 250 based motherboard with amd X64 3200+
[01:20] <holstein> just depends on your needs
[01:20] <holstein> Wiesshund: what sound device are you using?
[01:20] <Wiesshund> sound device is cheap, just a stack of sound blasters
[01:21] <holstein> AH
[01:21] <Wiesshund> SB lives
[01:21] <holstein> well, thats probably all going to work
[01:21] <holstein> as well as those work ;)
[01:21] <Wiesshund> i know its cheap, but it hasnt worked bad
[01:21] <holstein> be careful with the proprietary nvidia drivers and the RT kernel
[01:21] <holstein> again, you might not need the RT kernel
[01:22] <Wiesshund> i can always have both kernels right? boot the RT try it and remove it if its not working?
[01:22] <Wiesshund> nvidia motherboard chipset drivers still being flaky?
[01:23] <holstein> just with the RT kernel i hear
[01:23] <Wiesshund> ok, will make a note of that
[01:23] <holstein> cool
[01:23] <holstein> yeah, i think you'll be OK with that hardware
[01:23] <holstein> i would go for 10.04
[01:24] <holstein> seems to be a bit faster
[01:24] <holstein> check out #opensourcemusicians when you get a chance :)
[01:24] <holstein> podshow - community
[01:24] <holstein> good times
[01:24] <Wiesshund> i'll give the livecd a try, if that works out, i might just morf it to studio with synaptic
[01:25] <Wiesshund> specialy since being an audio workstation i never gave it a dvd
[01:25] <holstein> try lspci
[01:25] <holstein> and aplay -l
[01:25] <holstein> and arecord -l
[01:25] <holstein> i usually just upgrade the normal one
[01:29] <Wiesshund> well, gonna start the hardware changes first, better make sure its all still functional
[01:29] <Wiesshund> thanks for the help
[01:29] <holstein> anytime :)
[01:29] <holstein> good luck
[01:40] <digitweb> digitteknohippie here again, just installed ubuntu studio without selecting any of the package bundles, and itś a comfortable mere 1.6gb on the disk.
[01:40] <digitweb> :)    just thought i should report that back.
[06:57] <zus> holstein,   heya
[07:13] <tucemiux> he's not in right now, how can I help you? :-)
[08:21] <zus> tucemiux,   hi there
[08:23] <tucemiux> sorry did i wake you? o_O
[08:23] <zus> not really, was kinda in and  out of the channel
[08:24] <tucemiux> ah ok, this is the weekend so holstein most likely is up and about
[08:24] <zus> noticed i didnt get a respond lol
[08:32] <zus> well ill be back in a bit
[11:31] <zus> are any  or all the programs in ubuntu studios avaialble to download on thier own individually?
[11:38] <edakiri> zus: all may be
[11:39] <edakiri> u-studio uses linux-rt kernel. To get same behavior you may need to install it.
[11:41] <zus> yea i got the set up. i was wondering about the  programs if they were all  a u studio package or avaialble individually
[22:23] <Zed_> hello?
[23:40] <holstein> hey Zed_
[23:40] <Zed_> hello holstein
[23:41] <tucemiux> holstein, how goes it
[23:41] <Zed_> i tried avLinux, and it has the same problem
[23:41] <Zed_> didn't upgrade alsa (yet)
[23:42] <holstein> hey tucemiux
[23:42] <holstein> Zed_: well
[23:42] <Zed_> btw, do you need to stop pulseaudio?
[23:42] <holstein> i guess that tells you something
[23:43] <tucemiux> what's so great about avLinux?
[23:43] <holstein> Zed_: you shouldnt
[23:43] <holstein> tucemiux: i just suggest that as a LIVE disc
[23:43] <holstein> slimilar to ubuntustudio in packages
[23:43] <Zed_> well now i'm not even getting as far as i was
[23:44] <holstein> hmmm
[23:44] <holstein> Zed_: i would try and ALSA upgrade script then
[23:44] <holstein> and see how far you get then
[23:44] <Zed_> yeah
[23:46]  * holstein gotta run
[23:46] <holstein> i gotta get to the gig
[23:46] <holstein> BBL..
