[04:29] <Arcademan> May I ask is unity installed on Ubuntu-Studio :)
[04:30] <holstein> Arcademan: you have options
[04:30] <holstein> hmmmm
[04:31] <holstein> Arcademan: you can use ubuntustudio packages with unity
[04:31] <holstein> !vanilla | Arcademan
[04:32] <holstein> you can just install normal ubuntu with unity, and install the metapackages for the audio/video tasks
[04:32] <holstein> *not* ubuntustudio-desktop for example
[04:33] <holstein> that is gnome2 right now, and will be XFCE soon
[04:34] <Arcademan> may I ask for a list of packages that get installed in Ubuntu Studio :)
[04:34] <holstein> you could also install ubuntustudio and add unity to that
[04:34] <holstein> Arcademan: depends on what metapackages you choose
[04:35] <holstein> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/Audio
[04:35] <holstein> this is actually not bad https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio
[04:36] <Arcademan> Thanks :)
[04:36] <Arcademan> Exactly what I was looking for :)
[04:36] <holstein> this is a package list
[04:36] <holstein> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStudio/PackageList
[04:37] <Arcademan> :)
[04:39] <Arcademan> I may do Ubuntu Unity with the packages Thanks :) great dist :)
[04:39] <holstein> sure
[04:39] <holstein> you also dont need any ubuntustudio packages if you prefer
[04:40] <holstein> you can just install JACK, ardour, whatever else...
[04:40] <Arcademan> Yeah some of the packages don;t work on every hardware config ;)
[04:40] <holstein> hmm... not sure about that
[04:41] <holstein> some hardware is not very well supported in linux
[04:41] <Arcademan> like jack is not supported on my laptop lol yeah
[04:41] <holstein> but, thats going to be true of all, ubuntustudio and ubuntu or whatever else
[04:41] <Arcademan> Yip
[04:41] <holstein> Arcademan: the internal card works?
[04:41] <holstein> with alsa?
[04:41] <holstein> anything alsa uses, JACK uses
[04:42] <Arcademan> Umm no
[04:42] <holstein> if the card works with ubuntu, it'll work with JACK
[04:42] <Arcademan> Ah great :)
[04:42] <Arcademan> It works ok in Ubuntu but not in Ubuntu Studio
[04:42] <holstein> maybe you had differing versions
[04:43] <holstein> ubuntu = ubuntustudio
[04:43] <holstein> the hardware support is really quite similar depending on the kernel you are using
[04:43] <Arcademan> Umm it was 10.04 = 10.04 :P
[04:43] <holstein> should be the same kernels
[04:44] <holstein> Arcademan: you might want to look and see what kernel installed in ubuntustudio then
[04:44] <Arcademan> Yeah I plan to :)
[04:44] <holstein> eitherway, you dont need to install ubuntustudio
[04:45] <Arcademan> Right :)
[04:45] <holstein> just add JACK to what you got
[04:46] <Arcademan> ty mikeh789 :)
[04:46] <Arcademan> hmm seems Ubuntu Studio kernel is one ver behind
[04:46] <Arcademan> I should update lol
[04:47] <holstein> right, its probably the last -rt kernel
[04:47] <holstein> you can decide what to do about that... if its the -rt one, that the latest one
[04:47] <Arcademan> k
[04:47] <holstein> you can install linux-generic, and probably get the functionality from the hardware you seek
[04:48] <Arcademan> Yeah I played around with a few other dist I think I can get it :P)
[04:48] <Arcademan> Welll bbl ty ;)
[04:48] <holstein> o/
[04:49] <Arcademan> @set #ubuntustudo
[04:49] <Arcademan> K added :)
[07:11] <stephenthemartyr> hi had error that could not open synaptic because it could not copy users xauthority??
[09:02] <holstein> stephenthemartyr: thats something you need to use as root
[09:02] <holstein> not sure what the issue is... how were you opening synaptic? clicking on it?
[09:03] <holstein> open a terminal and type
[09:03] <holstein> sudo synaptic
[09:03] <holstein> and report any errors
[09:21] <stephenthemartyr> i ran out of memory because sbackup was making files like 14gig worth
[09:21] <jussi> holstein: gksudo ;)
[09:23] <holstein> jussi: good call :)
[09:23] <holstein> stephenthemartyr: you mean hard drive space?
[09:24] <stephenthemartyr> yes thats what i mean
[09:25] <stephenthemartyr> so i autocleaned and autoremoved in apt-get freed a little space
[09:25] <stephenthemartyr> been up all night.....again
[09:25] <holstein> yeah, my smoke alarm just woke me up
[09:25] <holstein> its malfunctioning
[09:26] <stephenthemartyr> damn that sucks
[09:26] <holstein> eh.. could have been worse.. could have been fully functional, reporting a fire :/
[09:28] <stephenthemartyr> yes that would be worse
[17:22] <HaNI_> excuse me, i have a problem... when i install ubuntu studio with vmware, i get this: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/14539054/random/PiX/US11.04.jpg
[17:23] <HaNI_> and the question is: how do i start graphical interface? i'm total beginner in linux
[17:25] <holstein> HaNI_: personally, you wont be able to take advantage of anything in VM
[17:25] <holstein> i wouldnt bother
[17:26] <HaNI_> i used backtrack5 and opensuse yesterday, and they worked just fine. so, studio wouldn't work in VM?
[17:28] <holstein> sure, and im sure you can 'get it to work'
[17:28] <holstein> im just saying, you wont be able to take advantage of any of the features really
[17:28] <holstein> JACK wont run well
[17:29] <holstein> any graphics or video editing you do would be *much* better on metal
[17:29] <holstein> i mean, you will get it working
[17:29] <holstein> im just saying, you will spend time on it, and the performance will be awful
[17:30] <HaNI_> hm, can you recommend me something else? i'm windows user, and i would like to learn about linux... what distro?
[17:30] <HaNI_> of course, it will run on VM
[17:31] <holstein> sure, just plain ubuntu
[17:31] <holstein> normal vanilla ubuntu
[17:31] <HaNI_> thank you :)
[17:31] <HaNI_> bye
