searlihola09:53
searlijust a quick question ...09:53
searliwill ubuntu studio run on older hardware?09:54
searlilike dyn:ebolic09:54
searliI.e what are the minimum requirements ?10:04
tanders12seali: I'm not sure. I would think that initially it'll run on anything vanilla ubuntu will, but when it comes to task-specific things like video editing and realtime audio is where you're gonna run into problems.14:17
ailoMy experience is, at least 512 MB of memory. 256 is like trying to fit an elephant into a closet, memory-wise.14:18
ailoAnd there may be problems with graphics. No flash without a reasonably new graphic card.14:19

holstein^^ those are wishlist21:30
komputesholstein: not a wishlist because enough people backing it, being presented to DX soon21:30
holsteini didnt realize wishlist was such a matter of opinion21:31
komputesholstein: re Bug #697774, are you tring to install studio or server?21:31

holsteinkomputes: studio can be installed using that method21:31
komputesholstein: it's a regression for a lost feature actually21:31
komputesnot a new feature21:31
holsteinhey, a deals a deal21:32
holsteini'll join if you do :)21:32

ubottuLaunchpad bug 695892 in Ubuntu Studio "no live CD for ubuntustudio" [Wishlist,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/69589221:34
holsteinyeah, these are related21:34
holsteinkomputes: seems like i might have to21:34
holsteini thought i would ask at the next meeting about it21:34
holsteinand see if everyone is onboard21:34
holsteinmake sure its possible21:34
holsteinim assigned because i didnt want anyone else looking at it necessarily yet21:35
komputesholstein: I'll definately back you on the LiveCD request21:35
holsteinwastin resources or whatever21:35
holsteinwasting*21:35
holsteintil its a go21:35
holsteinthe other one would be a non-issue if we had a live CD21:36
komputesholstein: as for the other one I'm guessing you tried usb-creator with an alt image?21:36
holsteinkomputes: i havent had luck with any alts and usb creator or unet21:36
holsteinhave you?21:37
komputesholstein: i've heard that before21:37
holsteini can get it to boot21:37
holsteinits the 'locating install medium'21:37
holsteinor locating CD rom21:37
holsteinsomething like that21:37
holsteinthats where it fails21:37
holsteinunless you do that envolved work-around21:38
holsteinfor the server install21:38
holsteinwhich, actually, i have not done myself21:38
holsteinBUT i suggested it in here twice21:38
holsteinfor 10.04 ubuntustudio installs21:38
holsteinand it was reported good21:38
holsteinin both cases21:40
komputesholstein: not that I can remember. I had a workaround for booting from an ISO file directly but ubiquity is hard headed with that method and won't install21:40
holsteinlive CD is the answer i think21:40
holsteintoo easy not to do it21:40
komputesthought there was an alt image usb-creator bug but I must be wrong... or maybe it was markes invalid/incomplete/expired21:40
holsteinand it'll fix that21:40
holsteinand the 'i just insatlled ubuntustudio, and nothing works' stuff i see in here21:41
holsteinat least a bit more21:41
holsteinkomputes: OH21:41
holsteini didnt think about it that way21:41
holsteinthis bug would kinda be a duplicate of that21:41
holsteini'll see if i can find it21:42

thebishophellohello23:46
thebishopi've got a Focusrite Saffire Pro24 (firewire) interface supported by ffado.  I see the RealTime kernel situation has gotten hairy under Maverick.  What's the best solution right now?23:46
holsteinthebishop: hey23:48
thebishopholstein, whatup23:48
holsteinare you using autostatics PPA ?23:48
holsteinor is it just supported now?23:49
holsteinhttps://launchpad.net/~autostatic/+archive/ppa23:49
thebishopholstein, i was looking at ubuntu docs which pointed me to abogani's PPA. but it only supports lucid and natty23:49
holsteinthebishop: i used the natty ones23:50
holsteinhttp://jackschnippes.freeunix.net/index.php/2010/11/04/lowlatency-kernel-and-realtime-kernel-for-ubuntu-10-10-maverick23:50
holsteinjust DL'd the .debs23:50
holsteini think -realtime is not there anymore?23:50
holsteinnot sure23:50
holsteinbut -lowlatency is working quite well for me in natty with my firepod23:50
thebishopholstein, well what is the state of things right now?  Searching around it looks like a lot of planning discussions are still going on.  Is Maverick just a bust for audio production?  Are Natty dailys ready to use?23:51
holsteinneither23:52
holsteini wouldnt use natty yet23:52
holsteinpersonally23:52
thebishopk23:52
holsteinmy production box is 10.0423:52
holsteinand i dont have a reason to change that23:52
holsteinBUT the -lowlatency kernel is working great in testing23:52
thebishopholstein, doesn't even look like UbuntuStudio's ppa supports Maverick23:52
holsteinthebishop: thats just aboganis PPA23:53
holsteinno ubuntustudio23:53
holsteinnot*23:53
holsteinthe ubuntustudio metapackages are in the standard repos23:53
holsteinthe realtime kernel got pulled23:53
thebishopholstein, ppa:ubuntustudio-dev/ppa doesn't have a maverick option23:53
holsteinthebishop: you shouldnt need that PPA23:53
thebishopit's like 2 years old anyway23:54
thebishopheh23:54
holsteinthats probably just testing pacakges23:54
holsteinfor something23:54
holsteinpackages23:54
holsteinnot used AFAIK23:54
holsteinthebishop: you'd be fine with 10.04 and autostatics PPA23:54
holsteinor 10.1023:54
holsteinand aboganis natty kernel23:54
thebishopholstein, autostatic only has lucid and karmic23:55
thebishopseems like 10.04 is the way to go23:55
thebishopsvn ffado and jack, and that's it23:55
holsteinAFAIK23:55
thebishopa bit annoying since i already compiled that stuff, but no biggie i guess23:55
holsteinyou dont need his PPA with maverick23:56
holsteinsince the new stuff is already in place23:56
thebishopoh ok23:56
thebishopso just install natty -realtime23:56
holsteinor -lowlatency23:56
thebishopholstein, both have preempt?23:56
holsteinyup23:56
holsteinthebishop: if you get around to testing natty with FW23:57
holsteinlet me know23:57
holsteini have a few tests i would like to confirm for us23:57
holsteinjust find me and ping me before you do any settings changes23:57
thebishopk23:57
holsteinliterally all i did was add myself to the audio group23:57
holsteinand get the -lowlatency kernel23:58
holsteinand natty + the firepod is running great :)23:58
holsteinmaybe a little better that lucid with -rt23:58
