HighOctane | I'm trying to get a m-audio firewire solo working with Ubuntu Studio on Natty, but I get no sound. Anyone here have any experience with a Firewire Solo? | 20:21 |
holstein | HighOctane: you still using that agere chipset? | 20:27 |
holstein | if so, im 99% sure thats going to be the issue | 20:28 |
mali_ | OMFG | 22:07 |
mali_ | after ubuntu went natty, I thought ubuntu studio would follow suit so been distrohopping due to unity , G3 etc | 22:07 |
mali_ | rofl.. turns out this baby is on gnome 2 still? | 22:07 |
holstein | mali_: gnome then xfce | 22:08 |
holstein | gnome2 is leaving the repos | 22:08 |
mali_ | FFS | 22:08 |
mali_ | just as I finally thought 4-5 moinths of distrohopping hell would perhaps be over | 22:09 |
holstein | otherwise, we would have probably just left well enough along | 22:09 |
holstein | i mean, there has been talk of a gnome2 fork... but, its going away | 22:09 |
mali_ | I admit, arch is brilliant for a desktop but I also want to run a semi-live server so don't feel so safe on arch tbh | 22:09 |
holstein | xfce is quite nice though | 22:09 |
holstein | very gnome2 like | 22:09 |
mali_ | ah I can't say I like ti hat much but | 22:10 |
holstein | yeah? | 22:10 |
holstein | what about it? | 22:10 |
mali_ | ye, I run xfce on top of ocmpiz to get the gnome feel | 22:10 |
holstein | right... xfce is the most gnome2 like | 22:10 |
holstein | if you havent looked at xubntu in a while, its quite slick and polished these days | 22:10 |
mali_ | but still .. I guess when one has the time as I had up until a monthy or two ago, one can always put on one's own fave panels on top of compiz, arch vanilla is a good choice for this | 22:10 |
mali_ | I haven't holstein | 22:11 |
holstein | anyways, arch or whatever... gnome2 is going away | 22:11 |
mali_ | crap | 22:11 |
mali_ | when? | 22:11 |
holstein | the gnome3 stuff wont play well with it | 22:11 |
holstein | mali_: now | 22:11 |
holstein | its dead | 22:11 |
holstein | its going away | 22:11 |
mali_ | he | 22:11 |
mali_ | fair enough | 22:11 |
mali_ | seems mint is still hanging on to it as debian no? | 22:11 |
holstein | doesnt matter whos 'hanging on to it' | 22:12 |
holstein | its jst a matter of time | 22:12 |
holstein | the gnome2 and gnome3 stuff doesnt work well together | 22:12 |
holstein | so, it could be a custom fork/spin that maintains gnome2 | 22:12 |
holstein | but, that will likely be a lot of hassle for whatever 6 folks try to do take that on | 22:12 |
holstein | so, i would look to the future peronsally | 22:12 |
holstein | xfce is great | 22:13 |
holstein | and it sounds like you actually havent seen the latest version of it | 22:13 |
mali_ | as i said, that's a personal preference, I didn't find it great.. than I find lxde more ot my liking :) | 22:13 |
holstein | thats what i am planning on running | 22:13 |
holstein | and thats what ubuntustudio is going to | 22:13 |
mali_ | but past months I been doing more custimisation on X distros than producing | 22:13 |
holstein | im still running 10.04 personally, and have no plans to move til 12.04 | 22:14 |
mali_ | right, I mnight as well cancel then | 22:14 |
holstein | when i will run xfce | 22:14 |
holstein | mali_: lubuntu is quite nice too | 22:14 |
holstein | lxde is nothing like gnome2 though | 22:14 |
holstein | thats why we didnt go with it | 22:14 |
holstein | xfce is much closer to gnome2 | 22:14 |
holstein | and we can set it up to be bascially the same | 22:14 |
mali_ | ya I will have a look in he future | 22:14 |
mali_ | has G3 become more hmm customisable by now? | 22:15 |
holstein | i have no idea | 22:15 |
holstein | i dont use gnome3 or unity | 22:15 |
holstein | they answer a question im not answering | 22:15 |
holstein | they answer a question im not asking* | 22:15 |
mali_ | precisely | 22:16 |
holstein | i would not mind at all if gnome2 had just stayed around | 22:16 |
holstein | but it cant | 22:16 |
mali_ | I haven't felt so aggrevated on computers for years lol | 22:16 |
holstein | aggrevated? | 22:16 |
holstein | you dont have to use a computer ;) | 22:16 |
holstein | i was a little upset when i read about unity | 22:17 |
holstein | then, i warmed up to it | 22:17 |
holstein | im glad ubuntu has their own thing now | 22:17 |
holstein | but, i was a little frustrated again when i saw how similar gnome3 and unity were | 22:17 |
holstein | i feel like its a bit of an unecessary duplication of efforts | 22:17 |
holstein | but... again... they have their own thing now | 22:17 |
holstein | and thats great for a lot or reasons | 22:18 |
holstein | and, im not planning on using either, so it really doesnt effect me | 22:18 |
holstein | anyways... im heading out to dinner... | 22:18 |
holstein | mali_: you might enjoy #opensourcemusicians | 22:18 |
mali_ | cheers | 22:19 |
mali_ | am trying to tell a colleague at work he is paying os much on win platform where he can get os much in ubustudio say | 22:19 |
