[01:54] heya [01:54] =) [05:40] Hello, I've been trying to set up my 5.1 Speakers in Ubuntu Studio following several howtos yet no success is there anyone that could assist me? [06:41] hi here [06:41] I search for pbuilder help [06:41] someone use it here maybe ? [09:53] hola [09:53] just a quick question ... [09:54] will ubuntu studio run on older hardware? [09:54] like dyn:ebolic [10:04] I.e what are the minimum requirements ? [14:17] seali: 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. [14:18] My experience is, at least 512 MB of memory. 256 is like trying to fit an elephant into a closet, memory-wise. [14:19] And there may be problems with graphics. No flash without a reasonably new graphic card. === moustafa is now known as moustafa_lunch === moustafa_lunch is now known as moustafa [21:27] Hey guys can you mark this bug as affecting you: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-media/+bug/324700 [21:27] Ubuntu bug 324700 in gnome-media (Ubuntu) "gnome-volume-control missing ability to customize session sound effects theme" [Medium,Triaged] [21:28] im unclear as to how that is not wishlist [21:29] the art of bug reporting ;) [21:29] komputes: how about we trade? [21:29] holstein: send, let's see [21:30] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntustudio/+bug/695892 [21:30] Ubuntu bug 695892 in Ubuntu Studio "no live CD for ubuntustudio" [Wishlist,New] [21:30] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntustudio/+bug/697774 [21:30] Ubuntu bug 697774 in Ubuntu Studio "cant install ubuntustudio from USB stick" [Undecided,New] [21:30] ^^ those are wishlist [21:30] holstein: not a wishlist because enough people backing it, being presented to DX soon [21:31] i didnt realize wishlist was such a matter of opinion [21:31] holstein: re Bug #697774, are you tring to install studio or server? [21:31] Launchpad bug 697774 in Ubuntu Studio "cant install ubuntustudio from USB stick" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/697774 [21:31] komputes: studio can be installed using that method [21:31] holstein: it's a regression for a lost feature actually [21:31] not a new feature [21:32] hey, a deals a deal [21:32] i'll join if you do :) [21:32] holstein: hadess from GNOME took it out at ~8.04 [21:33] holstein: livecd or alternate? [21:33] nm, saw the other bug [21:33] holstein: you assigned Bug #695892 to yourself. will you be fixing it? [21:34] Launchpad bug 695892 in Ubuntu Studio "no live CD for ubuntustudio" [Wishlist,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/695892 [21:34] yeah, these are related [21:34] komputes: seems like i might have to [21:34] i thought i would ask at the next meeting about it [21:34] and see if everyone is onboard [21:34] make sure its possible [21:35] im assigned because i didnt want anyone else looking at it necessarily yet [21:35] holstein: I'll definately back you on the LiveCD request [21:35] wastin resources or whatever [21:35] wasting* [21:35] til its a go [21:36] the other one would be a non-issue if we had a live CD [21:36] holstein: as for the other one I'm guessing you tried usb-creator with an alt image? [21:36] komputes: i havent had luck with any alts and usb creator or unet [21:37] have you? [21:37] holstein: i've heard that before [21:37] i can get it to boot [21:37] its the 'locating install medium' [21:37] or locating CD rom [21:37] something like that [21:37] thats where it fails [21:38] unless you do that envolved work-around [21:38] for the server install [21:38] which, actually, i have not done myself [21:38] BUT i suggested it in here twice [21:38] for 10.04 ubuntustudio installs [21:38] and it was reported good [21:40] in both cases [21:40] holstein: 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 install [21:40] live CD is the answer i think [21:40] too easy not to do it [21:40] thought there was an alt image usb-creator bug but I must be wrong... or maybe it was markes invalid/incomplete/expired [21:40] and it'll fix that [21:41] and the 'i just insatlled ubuntustudio, and nothing works' stuff i see in here [21:41] at least a bit more [21:41] komputes: OH [21:41] i didnt think about it that way [21:41] this bug would kinda be a duplicate of that [21:42] i'll see if i can find it === gnomefreak76 is now known as gnomefreak [23:46] hellohello [23:46] i'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? [23:48] thebishop: hey [23:48] holstein, whatup [23:48] are you using autostatics PPA ? [23:49] or is it just supported now? [23:49] https://launchpad.net/~autostatic/+archive/ppa [23:49] holstein, i was looking at ubuntu docs which pointed me to abogani's PPA. but it only supports lucid and natty [23:50] thebishop: i used the natty ones [23:50] http://jackschnippes.freeunix.net/index.php/2010/11/04/lowlatency-kernel-and-realtime-kernel-for-ubuntu-10-10-maverick [23:50] just DL'd the .debs [23:50] i think -realtime is not there anymore? [23:50] not sure [23:50] but -lowlatency is working quite well for me in natty with my firepod [23:51] holstein, 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? [23:52] neither [23:52] i wouldnt use natty yet [23:52] personally [23:52] k [23:52] my production box is 10.04 [23:52] and i dont have a reason to change that [23:52] BUT the -lowlatency kernel is working great in testing [23:52] holstein, doesn't even look like UbuntuStudio's ppa supports Maverick [23:53] thebishop: thats just aboganis PPA [23:53] no ubuntustudio [23:53] not* [23:53] the ubuntustudio metapackages are in the standard repos [23:53] the realtime kernel got pulled [23:53] holstein, ppa:ubuntustudio-dev/ppa doesn't have a maverick option [23:53] thebishop: you shouldnt need that PPA [23:54] it's like 2 years old anyway [23:54] heh [23:54] thats probably just testing pacakges [23:54] for something [23:54] packages [23:54] not used AFAIK [23:54] thebishop: you'd be fine with 10.04 and autostatics PPA [23:54] or 10.10 [23:54] and aboganis natty kernel [23:55] holstein, autostatic only has lucid and karmic [23:55] seems like 10.04 is the way to go [23:55] svn ffado and jack, and that's it [23:55] AFAIK [23:55] a bit annoying since i already compiled that stuff, but no biggie i guess [23:56] you dont need his PPA with maverick [23:56] since the new stuff is already in place [23:56] oh ok [23:56] so just install natty -realtime [23:56] or -lowlatency [23:56] holstein, both have preempt? [23:56] yup [23:57] thebishop: if you get around to testing natty with FW [23:57] let me know [23:57] i have a few tests i would like to confirm for us [23:57] just find me and ping me before you do any settings changes [23:57] k [23:57] literally all i did was add myself to the audio group [23:58] and get the -lowlatency kernel [23:58] and natty + the firepod is running great :) [23:58] maybe a little better that lucid with -rt
