benlebovitzhi out there... does anyone have a PreSonus AudioBox?  I'm trying to get one to work right now on 11.1000:32
benlebovitz64 bit...00:32
Lehthanishey all!00:57
Lehthanis got a gnome themes question00:57
LehthanisI can't figure out how to install them lol00:58
Lehthanisand I think its because I might be downloading the wrong things00:58
LehthanisI keep seeing gtk and metacity...and I'm not sure what that refers to00:58
LehthanisIs it ok to upgrade to 11.10 through upgrade manager or do I need to do a complete reinstall of Ubuntu Studio to get that upgrade?02:33
MckbrotherHey, I've got a question12:52
holsteinMckbrother: well... i have no idea why im up and my computer was still on, but just ask12:54
MckbrotherHaha ok :D I want to install UbuntuStudio, is there a possibility to install UbuntuStudio in the terminal of the normal Ubuntu? I've running Ubuntu on my notebook and don't want to remove it first. Is it possible or not?12:56
holsteinMckbrother: ubuntustudio = ubuntu12:56
holsteinpretty much12:56
holsteinso, you dont need to install ubuntustudio12:57
holsteinyou can open up a package manager and search ubuntustudio12:57
holsteinfrom the terminal... you can run12:57
holsteinapt-cache search ubuntustudio12:57
holsteinthere are some meta packages that pull in various sets of packages12:57
holstein!vanilla12:57
ubottuTo install Ubuntu Studio on top of a vanilla Ubuntu install, read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/Installation12:58
MckbrotherOk. Thannk. I will try it :)12:59
holsteinpersonally, i would just pull in ubuntustudio-audio ubuntustudio-audio-plugins ubuntustudio-graphics ubuntustudio-video and ubuntustudio-menu12:59
holsteinbut... you dont need to use these metas even12:59
holsteinyou can just install what you like... JACK, ardour, hydrogen... whatever12:59
MckbrotherOk.13:00
MckbrotherI will try it and if there are any questions I will come back.13:00
MckbrotherThanks very much :)13:00
MckbrotherHello again.14:09
MckbrotherI've installed UbuntuStudio on my notebook but there is XFCE now as desktop enviroment. How do I make my UbuntuStudio looking like the UbuntuStudio on the Screenshots at http://ubuntustudio.org14:10
Mckbrother?14:10
astraljavaMckbrother: Well, you can't. GNOME 2 isn't in the repos anymore, so either you will have to use an older release, or deal with the change.14:17
MckbrotherHm.14:17
MckbrotherIs there a tutorial for using an older release, or could you explain me how I can do so?14:18
astraljavaLucid (10.04) is still supported for 1½ years, and 10.10 almost a year still.14:18
MckbrotherOk14:18
MckbrotherOh sorry :D14:18
astraljavaIt's like installing any other distro.14:18
astraljavaBut you can't downgrade, sorry.14:18
MckbrotherHow ?14:18
MckbrotherHow do I downgrade? I dont want to install it again..14:19
astraljavaI just said you can't.14:21
astraljavaDebian doesn't provide such a functionality.14:21
MckbrotherOh sorry, I read 'you can' :D14:22
MckbrotherOk so in  10.04 it looks like the screenshots ?14:22
astraljavaAlmost, but there's an additional t there, that makes all the difference.14:22
MckbrotherHaha14:23
astraljavaPossibly. I'm not sure which release those are from.14:23
MckbrotherOk14:23
astraljavaBut up until 11.04 we used GNOME 2.14:24
astraljavaJust switched to XFCE on 11.10, cause we wanted to gain experience for 12.04, as it's an LTS release.14:24
MckbrotherSo I can use 11.04 ?14:25
astraljavaYes, you can. Sorry, I accidentally left it out there in the list earlier.14:25
MckbrotherHm. I think that design is an important part for an audio, video and graphic distribution.14:25
astraljavaIt will be supported until October of 2012.14:25
MckbrotherOk.14:26
astraljavaDesign? Which design?14:26
MckbrotherNo design in general. Sorry for my bad english, I'm german :D14:26
MckbrotherI mean the appearance14:27
Mckbrother.14:27
astraljavaOk. Nevermind about english. I'm a finn.14:28
Mckbrother:) Like Linus :)14:29
astraljavaYes, well you can have a chat about the appearance on ubuntu-studio-devel@lists.ubuntu.com, and offer your views and opinions.14:29
astraljavaThe current release isn't tuned appearance-wise at all, so there's a lot to be done.14:29
MckbrotherOk. In one year, I will begin to learn 'information science technician specialising in application development'14:31
MckbrotherWhich programming language do I need to know if I want to support the developing team of UbuntuStudio ?14:31
astraljavaWell, we're mostly not dealing with any in particular. Shell scripting is essential in maintaining a distro. But most used programming languages include Python, C and C++. Perl wouldn't hurt, some apps are written in C# (using Mono), and obviously some are Java apps.14:34
astraljavaIf you wanna get into application development, you should look into the development frameworks; GTK+ and Qt.14:35
MckbrotherSounds good, I will learn C, C# and C++ in my education. At the moment I learn Java at school.14:35
MckbrotherOk14:35
MckbrotherSo thanks a lot :) Maybe we develop together in a few years :D14:39
astraljavaLooking forward to it.14:39
MckbrotherBye14:39
astraljavaBye now.14:39
jfb86hello16:53
holsteinjfb86: o/17:11
jfb86holstein: yo ! :)17:40
pitchoilcanITM17:47
pitchoilcanis webgui stable on ubuntustudio 11?17:48
jfb86yes it is17:53
jfb86i'm on 11.04 with no pbs17:53
holsteinpitchoilcan: 11.04?18:07
holstein11.10?18:07
pitchoilcancorrect18:08
holsteintheres not reason to expect an unrelated package like that to behave any differently in ubuntustudio than ubuntu18:08
holsteinpitchoilcan: so, 11.04 or 11.10?18:08
holsteinor both?18:08
pitchoilcan11,0418:09
holsteineitherway, it'll be the same in ubuntustudio as ubuntu18:09
holsteinwe dont have anything to do with that package (we = ubuntustudio)18:10
pitchoilcanI installed the package from the synaptic repo but I don't know how to link the install directory to my web server root18:10
holsteinpitchoilcan: try connecting via the local machine18:12
holsteinto make sure its not a connection issue18:13
pitchoilcanI had the same problem with ampache and fixed it with : sudo ln -s /usr/share/ampache/www/ /var/www/ampache18:13
pitchoilcan do I have to do something simular with webgui?18:13
holsteini am not familiar with installing webgui18:13
holsteini have only used it with turnkey linux machines18:13
holsteinhttp://www.turnkeylinux.org/18:14
holstein^^ those are ubuntu based, and run live... you could fire one up and poke around18:14
holsteinagain... try accessing it locally to make sure its not something with the network18:14
holsteinnot sure why you need it on a box running X though18:14
holsteinpitchoilcan: i would look for a config file as well18:17
holsteinmake sure you are trying the proper port18:17
holsteinmaybe http://localhost:443/ ??18:18
holsteinnot sure18:18
pitchoilcanthanks nonetheless18:25
pitchoilcanI guess I'll have to make do with drupal and ampache18:26
pitchoilcanor maybe wordpress18:26
pitchoilcanhttp://www.molecularsciences.org/articles/installing_mahara_on_ubuntu_linux18:27
holstein?18:32
holsteinmaybe we are not communicating about the same thing18:33
holsteini would suggest downloading one of those virtual appliances18:33
holsteinwebgui is *not* a CMS18:33
tlmAny chance for Mate desktop in 12.04?20:35
astraljavatlm: What's that?21:03
tlmastraljava it's a fork of Gnome2, theres a ppa for it right now21:27
astraljavatlm: Well, I suppose it could get in, but I doubt we will take it into official use.21:43
MckbrotherHello.22:16
