[06:54] <Tinfoil> Having trouble getting Qsynth to work on 11.04... Says realtime is not enabled for JACK... I'm new so spare me -.-'
[06:55] <orngjce223> Okay, do you have qjackctl or cadence or something like that installed?
[06:55] <orngjce223> Open it, and see the settings, uncheck the "realtime" box, and see if it works.
[06:55] <Tinfoil> i have qjackctl.... un momento...
[06:55] <orngjce223> That's the painless method. Rather more painful involves installing a realtime kernel and adding yourself to the Audio group, but not by much.
[06:56] <Tinfoil> realtime is checked...
[06:56] <orngjce223> Uncheck it.
[06:56] <orngjce223> Try it to see if it works.
[06:57] <orngjce223> You may have to restart jack to make sure the changes go through
[06:57] <orngjce223> No big
[06:57] <Tinfoil> Qsynth1: Failed to create the audio driver (jack).
[06:57] <Tinfoil> Cannot contunue without it.
[06:57] <orngjce223> Have you restarted jack?
[06:57] <Tinfoil> Trying..
[06:57] <Tinfoil> restarting jack, I don't recall 'starting jack'
[06:58] <orngjce223> It probably started w/ qsynth or qsynth wouldn't've complained about it. Some programs do that sometimes, it's all right.
[06:58] <Tinfoil> Oh, nvm
[06:58] <orngjce223> Does it work now/
[06:58] <orngjce223> ?
[06:58] <Tinfoil> Checking...
[06:58] <Tinfoil> Yes :)
[06:58] <Tinfoil> I've been fighting with this for 3 days...
[06:59] <Tinfoil> Thank you!
[06:59] <orngjce223> Awesome!
[06:59] <orngjce223> If you want more complex questions answered and I'm not around you can try the guys over at #opensourcemusicians
[06:59] <orngjce223> I dunno why the realtime setting is checked by default actually 'cause most people don't have a use for it
[06:59] <Tinfoil> here on freenode?
[06:59] <orngjce223> If you want to use it in performance I can walk you through the long way around that makes it more reliable
[06:59] <orngjce223> Yep
[07:00] <Tinfoil> Yeah, I remember reading that studio doesn't have a realtime kernel...
[07:00] <Tinfoil> So I saw that and got quite confused. 0.o
[07:01] <orngjce223> It's fine.
[07:16] <orngjce223> Well
[07:16] <Tinfoil> Yeah, still struggling to get audio...
[07:16] <orngjce223> I usually get my realtime from PPAs anyway, but I've been told a lot of the scheduling patches are getting accepted into the vanilla kernel anyway
[07:16] <orngjce223> So eh
[07:17] <orngjce223> ...I'm not particularly good with that tbh - you ask the osm people and they might know more
[07:42] <Tinfoil> All working fine now :)
[07:44] <orngjce223> Cool!
[07:46] <Tinfoil> Thanks for the help. JACK is a nightmare... I'll be afk for now, retrieving more inspiration--in-a-can.
[07:46] <orngjce223> Heh
[08:14] <Tinfoil> 0.
