| ben_ | how do I determine if ubuntu studio is installed? | 04:26 |
| holstein | ben_: you can go and search for them in whatever package manger you use | 04:27 |
| holstein | you shouldnt need them though | 04:27 |
| ben_ | holstein, ...good idea... | 04:29 |
| ben_ | holstein, I'm really just trying to find the Ubuntu Studio Controls so I can enable 1394 raw access | 04:30 |
| holstein | ben_: right, you dont need to do that anymore | 04:30 |
| holstein | whats the issue? | 04:30 |
| holstein | when troubleshooting my FW device, i run gksudo qjackctl to troubleshoot around the premissions errors | 04:30 |
| holstein | *then* i get it running as normal user | 04:31 |
| ben_ | holstein, well, I run kino using gksudo kino and it runs for approx 700 MB and then stops...I read that I would need to run it as a non-root member | 04:31 |
| ben_ | sudo kino results in don't have access to raw1394 | 04:31 |
| ben_ | holstein, any ideas why it stops when I run as root...I'm trying to get video off my camcorder btw | 04:32 |
| holstein | ben_: firewire chipset? | 04:32 |
| holstein | kino version? | 04:32 |
| holstein | who knows | 04:32 |
| holstein | most of us here are pretty much audio guys | 04:33 |
| ben_ | holstein, ...how come I can run it as a non-root? | 04:33 |
| holstein | i would hit the mailing list if you cant get an answer here | 04:33 |
| holstein | ben_: you want to run it as non-root | 04:33 |
| ben_ | holstein, ..what does ubuntu studio install any ways? I'm using 11.10 and I did a search for ubuntu studio and it didn't show up although I had spent like 45 minutes waiting for ubuntu studio to be installed after running sudo apt-get install blah blah blah | 04:34 |
| holstein | theres a list | 04:34 |
| holstein | i thinks this is pretty current | 04:35 |
| holstein | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStudio/PackageList | 04:35 |
| ben_ | dang that list is massive...I was waiting like 45 minutes on an excellent connection | 04:36 |
| holstein | right | 04:37 |
| holstein | its a lot of stuff | 04:37 |
| holstein | and you dont need it | 04:37 |
| holstein | most of it is audio | 04:37 |
| ben_ | holstein, ...so I installed that for nothing | 04:38 |
| ben_ | wow | 04:38 |
| holstein | well, you dont need ubuntustudio-audio ;) | 04:38 |
| holstein | thats a pretty obvious one... its not going to hurt anything | 04:38 |
| holstein | but, its not going to help you right now either | 04:38 |
| holstein | i would run lspci and look at the FW chipset, and google around | 04:39 |
| holstein | there are a few that are really awful in linux | 04:39 |
| ben_ | holstein, ...I just can't figure it out...I run it as root and it captures the video but then stops after like 2 minutes | 04:40 |
| holstein | right, thats what i would expect from a funky chipset | 04:40 |
| ben_ | holstein, alright...so any idea how I solve this problem? | 04:41 |
| holstein | ben_: sure... check and see what chipset you have | 04:42 |
| ben_ | holstein, how do I do that? | 04:42 |
| holstein | let me know what it is... and also google about its linux compatibility | 04:42 |
| holstein | then, you can consider getting a card, or some other meathod of moving that video over | 04:43 |
| holstein | like, just dragging the files off | 04:43 |
| holstein | like its a hard drive.. does it not suppor that? | 04:43 |
| holstein | you can open the terminal, and run 'lspci' | 04:43 |
| holstein | that will tell you the chipset for the FW (as well as other info) | 04:44 |
| ben_ | http://pastebin.com/T5BVTQp7 | 04:45 |
| ben_ | holstein, does that help? | 04:46 |
| holstein | FireWire (IEEE 1394): Agere Systems FW643 PCI Express1394b Controller (PHY/Link) (rev 07) | 04:47 |
| holstein | ^^ thats your firewire chipset | 04:47 |
| holstein | you can feel free to google around about it, but i have *never* had any luckk with an Agere | 04:47 |
| ben_ | holstein, so what am I looking for exactly? | 04:48 |
| holstein | ben_: different hardware than what you have | 04:48 |
| holstein | preffereably texas instruments | 04:49 |
| holstein | OR, a way to move that file over with out just re-recording it | 04:49 |
| ben_ | holstein, so your saying that I'd need to buy hardware..I see | 04:50 |
| holstein | ben_: im saying, i have never had luck with that particular chipset, and doing audio | 04:50 |
| holstein | i bought texas instruments chipsets | 04:50 |
| holstein | your mileage may vary | 04:50 |
| ben_ | Well, what if I just use virtual box in windows and use some software to do that? | 04:53 |
| holstein | virtualbox shares firewire? | 04:55 |
| holstein | i dont think that passes through | 04:55 |
| holstein | how else can you grab that data? | 04:55 |
| ben_ | holstein, nope it doesn't...I guess I will have to re-install OS X and dual boot Windows XP | 04:55 |
| holstein | you could grab that data in a dual boot, using windows | 04:55 |
| holstein | then, use ubuntu to edit | 04:55 |
| holstein | ben_: you should be able to grab with OSX | 04:56 |
| holstein | and edit with ubuntu | 04:56 |
| ben_ | well, I've tried w/ OS X and it doesn't pop up that nothing connected | 04:56 |
| ben_ | is there something I need to do in OS X? | 04:56 |
| holstein | install drivers? | 04:57 |
| ben_ | only drivers are for samsung and only for windows | 04:58 |
| ben_ | so I guess it's re-installing w/ a dual boot then | 04:59 |
| holstein | maybe they only support windows | 04:59 |
| holstein | is there no way to just get the files off? | 04:59 |
| holstein | like a hard drive? | 04:59 |
| holstein | when i plug in my camera, it just shows up as a drive, and i drag the files off | 05:00 |
| holstein | thats not going to happen for you? | 05:00 |
| ben_ | nope...it's mini-DV ...tapes | 05:00 |
| holstein | you could search around about agere and that device | 05:01 |
| holstein | you can email the list | 05:01 |
| holstein | you can try the kino/blender/whatever-else IRC channels | 05:01 |
| holstein | ben_: im an audio guy | 05:01 |
| ben_ | holstein, hey thanks for your help though | 05:01 |
| holstein | and theres seldom video folk in here | 05:01 |
| holstein | you should not take my word as the last and definitive | 05:02 |
| holstein | though, im sure those agere chipsets are awful... | 05:02 |
| ben_ | holstein, ...no problem | 05:02 |
| ben_ | later | 05:02 |
| ajwill | hi all, I was wondering, is it possible to install the gnome 3 package within ubuntu studio? or should I just install standard ubuntu and install the ubuntu studio package group? | 05:41 |
