Strayfolk | anyone running 11.04 with firewire yet? | 18:15 |
---|---|---|
ailo_ | Strayfolk, holstein has been doing that | 18:30 |
ailo_ | Strayfolk, Should work out of the box | 18:30 |
ailo_ | Strayfolk, Just make sure you have realtime privilege with jackd, and that's all you need | 18:31 |
Strayfolk | k. I couldn't run the live cd for some reason. kind of waiting for kx studio or fedora or something | 18:31 |
Strayfolk | of ubuntu that is | 18:32 |
holstein | Strayfolk: we dont have a live CD | 19:16 |
holstein | if you cant get to the desktop from a live CD | 19:16 |
holstein | the normal ubuntu live CD* | 19:17 |
holstein | i would look at your graphics driver | 19:17 |
holstein | Strayfolk: are you on 10.04? | 19:18 |
holstein | i have tested FW on 11.04 | 19:19 |
holstein | theres really no reason to upgrade particularly | 19:19 |
holstein | OR | 19:19 |
holstein | any reason to *not* upgrade | 19:19 |
holstein | its up to you | 19:19 |
holstein | ffado is supporting more devices all the time though | 19:20 |
holstein | that could be a good reason to upgrade | 19:20 |
Strayfolk | yup. I guess I have to find out myself whether it works better | 19:26 |
holstein | it should literally work basically the same | 19:27 |
Strayfolk | running kx studio live dvd, I almost got the performance I get from my installed ubuntu studio | 19:27 |
Strayfolk | so I really liked that... | 19:27 |
holstein | yup | 19:27 |
holstein | i use 10.04 with falkx kxstudio PPA's added | 19:28 |
Strayfolk | me too, but the kernels won't work | 19:28 |
holstein | ? | 19:28 |
holstein | what kernels? | 19:28 |
Strayfolk | so I'm going with the preempt + a rt from the ubuntu repos | 19:28 |
holstein | nah | 19:28 |
holstein | something aint right | 19:28 |
holstein | they work fine | 19:28 |
holstein | i have -lowlatency and -realtime | 19:28 |
Strayfolk | I've gone over this so many times, I'm not reinstalling | 19:28 |
holstein | from falks ppa's | 19:28 |
Strayfolk | I ran realtime, but it locked all the time | 19:28 |
Strayfolk | the one from falk wouldn't load at all | 19:29 |
holstein | Strayfolk: they are the same | 19:29 |
holstein | abogani's and falks | 19:29 |
holstein | anyways | 19:29 |
Strayfolk | well, tried 2 versions | 19:29 |
holstein | you might want the newer -generic kernel then | 19:29 |
holstein | i find i need -lowlatency | 19:30 |
holstein | Strayfolk: you running nvidia with proprietary drivers? | 19:30 |
Strayfolk | -rt works 10 x better for me also | 19:30 |
Strayfolk | yes | 19:30 |
holstein | OK | 19:30 |
holstein | maybe you want to dual boot then | 19:30 |
holstein | something where you can have a non studio version | 19:30 |
Strayfolk | last weekend I uninstalled them, and it was the worst stabilitiy issues I've had with linux | 19:30 |
holstein | and run the nouveu driver with the -realtime kernel | 19:31 |
holstein | i feel like with FW you are goin to need it | 19:31 |
holstein | for a while longer | 19:31 |
holstein | Strayfolk: vesa driver? | 19:31 |
Strayfolk | I ran -realtime with noveau last weekend, but it kept crashing, probably because of the drivers | 19:31 |
Strayfolk | nouveau | 19:31 |
holstein | right | 19:32 |
holstein | how was it with the vesa drivers? | 19:32 |
Strayfolk | 800x600 | 19:32 |
holstein | ? | 19:32 |
Strayfolk | on a 1900x1080 screen | 19:32 |
holstein | well, other than that* | 19:32 |
holstein | you can make a custom xorg.conf | 19:32 |
holstein | if the perfomance seems worth the hassle | 19:32 |
holstein | anyways, -lowlatency is reall quite tolerable | 19:33 |
Strayfolk | if I could have wifi + firewire + pulseaudio with OK performance, I wouldn't care about which gfx driver I use | 19:33 |
holstein | pulse? | 19:33 |
Strayfolk | pulseaudio | 19:33 |
holstein | you dont want to use pulse in the studio though | 19:33 |
Strayfolk | even with firewire? | 19:34 |
holstein | JACK is what you need | 19:34 |
Strayfolk | I know | 19:35 |
Strayfolk | I meant jack+pulse | 19:35 |
holstein | right | 19:35 |
holstein | thats software | 19:35 |
holstein | there are a couple ways to do that | 19:35 |
Strayfolk | both working, and preferably interconnected | 19:35 |
holstein | after you get a stable rig | 19:35 |
holstein | i wouldnt even put that on the table | 19:35 |
holstein | til you get the graphics+RT worked out | 19:35 |
Strayfolk | the vesa framebuffer doesn't support my screen resolution, so I don't think that's an option | 19:36 |
Strayfolk | so I don't know what to do, other than to wait for new versions that'll magically work | 19:36 |
holstein | or get a different graphics card | 19:37 |
Strayfolk | laptop | 19:37 |
Strayfolk | well. good talking to you | 19:38 |
Strayfolk | I'm out | 19:38 |
Strayfolk | (idling) | 19:38 |
holstein | Strayfolk: laterx | 19:39 |
