[16:09] <mr_boo> i'm downloading ubuntu studio 10.04
[16:09] <mr_boo> is that a good idea?
[16:11] <AutoStatic> Yes it is!
[16:12] <mr_boo> i've been told that 10.10 doesn't use a realtime kernel while the older 10.04 does
[16:12] <mr_boo> which is total madness if you ask me
[16:12] <mr_boo> but i'm no expert after all
[16:13] <AutoStatic> A lot of the RT patch set has been integrated in the main kernel over the years
[16:13] <AutoStatic> So a generic kernel should perform ok
[16:14] <mr_boo> intresting
[16:14] <mr_boo> has anyone experienced any performance difference between 10.04 and 10.10 then?
[16:28] <grantsmith> hi.. does Studio 10.10 have gscanbus, for configuring the MAudio firewire solo ?
[16:38] <mr_boo> some guy yesterday said that his soundcard stopped working after he upgraded to 10.10
[16:38] <mr_boo> maybe this is part of the reason that installing 10.04 is a better idea
[16:45] <grantsmith> ok thanks
[16:47] <mr_boo> i don't which soundcard he had though
[20:17] <rattty> i miss my uslapsh
[20:17] <rattty> uslpash
[20:20] <rattty> says its not going to be installed, some how it got un-installed
[20:21] <holstein> theres an old package hanging around for usplash i think
[20:21] <holstein> that we dont need we plymouth
[20:21] <holstein> rattty: whats the issue?
[20:22] <holstein> are you not able to boot x?
[20:22] <holstein> start x?
[20:23] <rattty> sure
[20:24] <rattty> the the ubuntu studio boot animation is gone
[20:24] <holstein> you still get to GDM?
[20:24] <rattty> whats that?
[20:24] <holstein> the gnome login?
[20:25] <rattty> i have auto login
[20:25] <holstein> AH
[20:25] <rattty> but yea
[20:25] <rattty> it goes to login
[20:25] <holstein> still should see the login screen for a second i think
[20:26] <rattty> you know how ubuntu studio lights up left to right as it boots...
[20:26] <rattty> thats gone
[20:26] <holstein> yup
[20:26] <holstein> rattty: is that a deal breaker for you?
[20:26] <rattty> its just the standard 10,10 now
[20:26] <rattty> yes, lol
[20:26] <holstein> rattty: OH
[20:26] <holstein> so you have one then
[20:26] <holstein> just the old standard one
[20:27] <holstein> if it were me, i would not worry about it
[20:27] <holstein> BUT
[20:27] <holstein> go to synaptic
[20:27] <holstein> OR where ever you install packages
[20:27] <holstein> and search ubuntustudio
[20:27] <holstein> you'll see some that are not installed
[20:28] <holstein> one of those will be splash screen related
[20:28] <holstein> should be
[20:28] <rattty> you know, iv done that, an synaptic snaps up a dialog such an such is not going to be installed.
[20:28] <holstein> plymouth-theme-ubuntustudio
[20:28] <rattty> yea
[20:29] <rattty> synaptic snaps that dialog up
[20:29] <holstein> rattty: what did you install that prompted the removal of that splash screen?
[20:30] <rattty> i think it happend when i installed gnome network manager
[20:30] <holstein> plausible
[20:30] <holstein> i mean
[20:30] <holstein> everything is working rattty
[20:31] <holstein> maybe you should just let it go
[20:31] <holstein> and deal
[20:31] <rattty> yea im using wird
[20:31] <holstein> what is the error when you try and install that plymouth theme?
[20:31] <holstein> rattty: wicd?
[20:32] <rattty> synaptic has told me ploumth depends on usplash
[20:32] <rattty> synaptic will not let me install usplash
[20:32] <holstein> yeah
[20:33] <holstein> thats normal AFAIK
[20:33] <rattty> wicd that is
[20:33] <holstein> not that plymouth depends on usplash
[20:33] <rattty> afaik?
[20:33] <holstein> as far as i know
[20:33] <holstein> ANYWAYS
[20:34] <rattty> plymouth is istalled it just doesnt show
[20:34] <holstein> sounds like you might need to decide between wicd or that splash screen
[20:34] <rattty> aww
[20:34] <holstein> rattty: now that i think about it
[20:34] <holstein> i dont have that splash screen anymore
[20:34] <holstein> i forget when that went away
[20:34] <holstein> but, i also dont care at all
[20:35] <rattty> iv looked up how to auto start gnome-network-manager seems imposable
[20:35] <holstein> it could flash a big middle finger up there for all i care
[20:35] <rattty> lol
[20:35] <holstein> as long as i get to the desktop ;)
[20:45] <rattty> i think i found the prob, plymouth start up was disabled in boot sart-up manager
[20:45] <holstein> AH
[20:45] <holstein> that might do it
[20:46] <rattty> hope
[21:22] <rattty> i need a nap
