holstein | you are kidding | 00:51 |

holstein | the -lowlatency kernel didnt make it in 11.10? | 00:51 |
=== naka-- is now known as naka | ||
naka | i'm no expert, but from what i understand a lot of the low latency functionality has been included in the generic kernel now | 01:18 |
naka | hence no need for -lowlatency | 01:18 |
holstein | naka: sure, but we still need it as of last release | 01:21 |
holstein | for several test cases | 01:21 |
holstein | firewire not being the only case | 01:22 |
holstein | still, we havent had one since maverick | 01:22 |
holstein | lucid has the RT kernel from karmic carried over into the repos | 01:22 |
holstein | naka: if you can test non-firewire, i'll test firewire | 01:35 |
holstein | with mainline kernels for 12.04 | 01:36 |
holstein | still, we should be able to put software in the repos that we need | 01:36 |
naka | ah i see | 01:45 |
naka | unfortunately i'm still waiting for my internet to get hooked up here so i'm a few days away from really being able to download and test anything :( | 01:46 |
naka | but i hope to be able to help out once i'm online | 01:46 |
holstein | naka: :) | 01:48 |
holstein | cool | 01:48 |
holstein | we were really doing pretty well there for a bit before natty | 01:48 |
holstein | testing-wise | 01:48 |
naka | reading that y'all were switching to xfce piqued my interest in ubuntu-studio, since i've been thinking of doing the same thing myself lately | 01:52 |
naka | and i saw the oneiric release notes which almost read like a cry for help :> | 01:52 |
holstein | yeah, i think thats where im heading | 01:52 |
holstein | xubuntu is quite nice | 01:52 |
holstein | naka: lol | 01:53 |
naka | i might install xubuntu at least this afternoon. i'm using a 3g connection, so i can't download a lot of stuff without it costing a fortune, but my isp mirrors a few distros which are free to dl | 01:58 |
naka | xubuntu is included, ustudio aint :( | 01:58 |
naka | haven't used xfce in four or five years. back when i tried it the panel used to crash from time to time | 02:01 |
naka | i understand it has really matured now though. even torvalds made the switch | 02:02 |
craigs63 | hi kubotu ! | 02:19 |
kubotu | 'evening, craigs63 | 02:19 |
sd_ubuntu_ | Hi! | 07:31 |

holstein | we need help with that every weekend | 14:20 |
holstein | here, its like this | 14:20 |

sd_ubuntu_ | (i have to go ...) | 14:22 |
holstein | sd_ubuntu_: next time :) | 14:24 |
holstein | just so you know, dont expect much from that list in the way of direction | 14:24 |
fr-z | hi | 15:15 |
knome | hey fr-z | 15:21 |
knome | fr-z, i see you asked about the new US website | 15:21 |
fr-z | US? | 15:21 |
knome | fr-z, at least right now it's hard to cooperate, but i'll let you all know if i need any help :) | 15:21 |
knome | us=ubuntu studio | 15:22 |
fr-z | ahh lol sorry :) | 15:22 |
fr-z | nice if you need count on me please ^^ | 15:22 |
knome | sure, thanks | 15:22 |
knome | the next step is to migrate to a wordpress theme really | 15:22 |
knome | and make the JS "feature" tabs work | 15:23 |
fr-z | well coding its not my thing ;) | 15:23 |
knome | the new "feature" area can be seen at http://temp.knome.fi/ubuntustudio/www/ | 15:23 |
fr-z | the only thing i can code is an html saying helo lol | 15:23 |
knome | more than nothing, isn't it :) | 15:23 |
knome | http://myhaiku.org/ for the general looks | 15:24 |
knome | so those two are going to be integrated into one wordpress theme :) | 15:24 |
knome | i don't know much about the content | 15:24 |
knome | that's something somebody else has to work on :) | 15:24 |
fr-z | ^^ | 15:25 |
fr-z | its quite interesting | 15:25 |
fr-z | i would change some short details | 15:25 |
fr-z | simple things | 15:25 |
knome | about the content, or the lookS? | 15:25 |
fr-z | the looks | 15:25 |
knome | feel free to comment :) | 15:25 |
fr-z | i would remove the "ubuntu studio" on the left, the audio-video-graphics words at the banner top, the logo at the left side of the word audio | 15:27 |
fr-z | then | 15:27 |
fr-z | with the free space | 15:27 |
fr-z | you could zoom the banner to full screen that area | 15:27 |
knome | oh | 15:28 |
knome | see this page: http://temp.knome.fi/ubuntustudio/www/ | 15:28 |
fr-z | it would breath more | 15:28 |
knome | that's what the header is about to look like | 15:28 |
knome | the rest of the page will be taken from myhaiku.org :) | 15:28 |
knome | eg. the article listing | 15:28 |
fr-z | this one is much better | 15:28 |
knome | that's exactly doing what you said - giving more space to breathe and cutting repetition | 15:29 |
fr-z | true | 15:29 |
fr-z | its more serious and professional | 15:29 |
fr-z | so http://temp.knome.fi/ubuntustudio/www/ will be the main visual structure? | 15:29 |
knome | yes | 15:29 |
knome | that's created using myhaiku.org, the previous draft, as a base | 15:30 |
knome | incorporating similar elements and somewhat the overall looks :) | 15:30 |
fr-z | no doubt its much better | 15:30 |
knome | thanks | 15:31 |
knome | oh - if you have any other ideas than just screenshots for the right-hand side of the "feature" area (there's some 250px width of empty space), shoot | 15:32 |
knome | i mean, the main slide probably should have a logo or something really generic | 15:32 |
knome | but the audio/video/graphics slides can be much more interesting than just screenshots | 15:32 |
knome | if we only have ideas for that | 15:33 |
knome | (any color/image is ok really) | 15:33 |
fr-z | if you want i can make a sketch with the idea but i have something in mind | 15:34 |
knome | sketch is great, just an idea is fine too | 15:35 |
fr-z | i woul remove the audio video etc, honestly they dont fit the global concept. And then you could solve the right side space. you could put, vertically icons | 15:35 |
fr-z | one for audio, another for video and so on | 15:36 |
sd_ubuntu_ | holstein: I was with my brother and grandmother and then I lost the connection..... thank you for your messages (that I losted unfortunately). However I've understood that I should join ubuntu news channel to start simply | 15:36 |
fr-z | let me see if i see and example | 15:36 |
fr-z | hi sd | 15:36 |
fr-z | i dont know if holstein isnt away | 15:36 |
knome | i suppose we're not going to change the vertical/horizontal aligment any more, but ideas for the background are welcome (btw, the free space is intentional ;)) | 15:37 |
fr-z | if you have any other ideas than just screenshots for the right-hand side of the "feature" area (there's some 250px width of empty space), shoot | 15:38 |
knome | yeah, i mean something like photos of mixer buttons etc. | 15:38 |
knome | :) | 15:38 |
fr-z | you mean that was something for the right side but of the background? | 15:39 |
fr-z | ahh | 15:39 |
fr-z | got it :) | 15:39 |
knome | that's what the free space is for | 15:39 |
knome | some graphical element | 15:39 |
fr-z | for graphics i would bet on a 3d model, half rendered and another half in lines | 15:40 |
fr-z | i bet m8s on blender group wouldnt mind to give a hand. They have loads of models | 15:41 |
fr-z | and maybe they could help getting a lens for the video aswell | 15:42 |
knome | yeah | 15:58 |
fr-z | cya later :) | 16:17 |
holstein | hey knome | 16:42 |
holstein | who has access to the artwork? | 21:21 |
holstein | i want to go ahead and take the old wallpaper and put it in our XFCE, first thin | 21:21 |
holstein | g | 21:21 |
holstein | and just choose some darker theme, and have that to fall back on | 21:21 |
holstein | anyways... upgrade from 11.04 worked | 21:22 |
knome | hey holstein | 21:33 |
holstein | knome: o/ | 21:42 |
holstein | are you the website guy? | 21:42 |
holstein | we gotta get that up ASAP | 21:42 |
knome | yup, yeah. | 21:43 |
knome | i know. | 21:43 |
holstein | how do we make that happen? | 21:43 |
holstein | AFAIK, you are done right? | 21:43 |
knome | the next step is to convert the drafts to a wordpress theme (i understood that was okay for scott) | 21:44 |
knome | after that, we need the canonical IS to set up a staging site for that, so you can insert the content | 21:44 |
holstein | yeah, that sounds envolved | 21:44 |
holstein | the wordpress thing | 21:44 |
knome | and shortly after that, you say "GO!!" and they'll publish it | 21:44 |
holstein | can we just say go on what you got? | 21:44 |
knome | no, because there's nothing completely ready yet | 21:45 |
holstein | OK | 21:45 |
holstein | what can i do ? | 21:45 |
knome | i have created this: http://temp.knome.fi/ubuntustudio/www/ | 21:45 |
holstein | i can put up a wordpress instance if needed | 21:45 |
knome | based on this: http://myhaiku.org/ | 21:45 |
knome | no need - i can do that myself too :) | 21:45 |
holstein | knome: lets try and talk more regularly, and make this happen ASAP | 21:46 |
holstein | like, 2 weeks, lets be submitting something to canonnical | 21:46 |
holstein | is that possible? | 21:46 |
knome | if you want to make things ready for the next stage, you can contact the canonical IS (just add a ticket in RT i understand) so they'll have a staging site ready for us | 21:46 |
knome | depends much on my commercial work | 21:47 |
holstein | im at the point with the site where we need to do something even if its wrong | 21:47 |
knome | i'm hoping to have more time soonish | 21:47 |
holstein | knome: if you want to set up the wordpress, i can mess with it | 21:47 |
holstein | and talk someone else into helping | 21:47 |
holstein | a wordpress guy | 21:47 |
holstein | i know 2 wordpress guys actually that would help | 21:47 |
knome | how well do they know theming? | 21:48 |
holstein | one of them is quite good at it | 21:48 |
holstein | and the other is learning | 21:48 |
holstein | he's more on the backend | 21:48 |
knome | okay | 21:48 |
knome | we don't need much of the backend now | 21:48 |
holstein | with those 2 guys, i should be able to really make some headway | 21:48 |
knome | i'll try to get something together tomorrow | 21:49 |
holstein | knome: thanks | 21:49 |
knome | like put that all into a wordpress theme draft | 21:49 |
knome | after that it's easier for others to chime in | 21:49 |
holstein | well, i say we just do it | 21:49 |
knome | we need some JS too, for the feature area | 21:49 |
holstein | you get the say so | 21:50 |
holstein | you and scottL | 21:50 |
holstein | no more 'is this OK, and whatever" | 21:50 |
knome | mm-hmm | 21:50 |
holstein | it'll be the week after 12.04 releases and well be saying the same thing | 21:50 |
holstein | if someone dont like it, they can come here and file tickets or whatever | 21:50 |
knome | heh, hopefully not | 21:50 |
holstein | they are more than welcome | 21:50 |
holstein | knome: the the JS something that can be added later? | 21:51 |
holstein | i can ask the theme guy | 21:51 |
holstein | he's more of a coder | 21:51 |
holstein | OH... i know a JS guy too actually that owes me some time :) | 21:51 |
knome | umph, no, i think it should be in right away | 21:51 |
holstein | we'll see | 21:51 |
holstein | all i can do is ask | 21:52 |
knome | i'll see if i have enough time for that tomorrow (or this night) too | 21:52 |
knome | i can do JS myself too :) | 21:52 |
holstein | knome: you are a gentleman and a scholar | 21:52 |
knome | :) | 21:52 |
knome | yeah, and lately quite busy ;) | 21:52 |
holstein | if i can do some of the light-weight stuff with the help i rustle up | 21:52 |
holstein | you can sweep in and JS | 21:52 |
holstein | swoop? | 21:53 |
holstein | whatever... | 21:53 |
knome | heh | 21:53 |
knome | in what timezone are you in? | 21:53 |
holstein | eastern... new york | 21:53 |
knome | right | 21:53 |
holstein | im in asheville NC | 21:53 |
knome | how much - is that? | 21:53 |

knome | okay | 21:53 |
knome | i'm +3 | 21:54 |
knome | but that's okay | 21:54 |
knome | i sometimes beat the people in US staying up longer | 21:54 |
holstein | yeah, you can message me here or email me or whatever | 21:54 |
knome | mmh. | 21:58 |
knome | i think i'm going to work on the site tonight | 21:58 |
knome | seems like the only way to go | 21:58 |
knome | i'll just wait that my wife falls asleep first :P | 21:58 |
holstein | hehe | 21:58 |
knome | brb | 21:58 |
