| scott-work | astraljava: sorry for not responding yet about the meeting, been traveling and also sick for several days, really starting to feel myself again today finally | 13:59 |
|---|---|---|
| scott-work | astraljava: sure, i'll handle the meeting this weekend, also thank you for reminding me ;) | 13:59 |
| astraljava | scott-work: Good, good. Yeah, I'm travelling myself at that time, and I'm not sure about the connectivity then. | 15:20 |

| len | scott-work: Quick question about live DVDs. | 19:19 |
| len | How much memory to they require? If they are able to show people all the software US comes with tat sounds like a lot. US installed on the hard drive takes 4gig (about) | 19:21 |
| len | I guess I am asking if a live dvd is even doable for a machine with only 1 gig memory (or less) | 19:22 |
| micahg | 1GB RAM? | 19:23 |
| charlie-tca | The size of the dvd doesn't matter if the computer has enough memory to run studio | 19:26 |
| charlie-tca | The entire dvd won't load into memory | 19:26 |
| len | Ok, It is just that I was thinking about the live cds I have run and our dvd is already more than twice the size at almost 2G. | 19:42 |
| len | I don't remember for sure but it seems the ram disk was about 500mb. If we add the software as installed on the dvd, what size will the dvd end up? | 19:43 |
| holstein | len: check out dynebolic, or AVlinux | 19:58 |
| holstein | those are really similar to the size a live ubuntustudio would be | 19:58 |
| holstein | the size and performance probably | 19:58 |
| len | Ok. I guess to answer my question I should try one on one of these machines. Do you know if they work run off the USB stick? | 20:00 |
| holstein | len: should... though i have only tried an earlier version of AV from usb using unet | 20:00 |
| holstein | no reason why they shouldnt, though i wouldnt expect hybrid iso's | 20:01 |
| holstein | unless that is stated... | 20:01 |
| len | which is the better to try? In your opinion... | 20:01 |
| holstein | AV | 20:01 |
| holstein | thought the newest dynebolic is arguably more similar to US | 20:02 |
| holstein | the early db is quite amzing live | 20:02 |
| holstein | very out of date though | 20:02 |
| len | Seems everything is... just by looking at it. | 20:03 |
| len | That didn't come out right | 20:03 |
| len | It seems by the time I see anything it is out of date | 20:03 |
| holstein | hehe | 20:04 |
| holstein | i hear you... i just try and hop in the water somewhere and go along for the ride | 20:04 |
| len | I am finding out my MB is over 10yrs old... at least the internal sound is that outdted | 20:05 |
| len | Pre 2004 anyway | 20:09 |
| holstein | len: eh.. internal cards dont matter much anyways | 20:09 |
| holstein | len: i appreciate all your testing | 20:09 |
| holstein | and i like to keep an eye on older hardware | 20:09 |
| holstein | i hate discluding for no good reason | 20:09 |
| len | The AC97 is not much good for tracking due to sync issues. Some of them are ok at 48K though. I have a d66 instead. | 20:10 |
| len | My big thing right now is docs. We don't really have any at all. I am mostly putting together a collection of links. | 20:12 |
| holstein | its challenging | 20:13 |
| holstein | theres been a lot of fragmentation | 20:13 |
| holstein | and everyone's hardware case is differnt | 20:14 |
| holstein | per release | 20:14 |
| holstein | and sometimes, per kernel rev | 20:14 |
| holstein | makes working with different hardware, and having a definitive "how-to" challening to say the least | 20:14 |
| len | I try to make sure I say something about it not being definitive. But pointing to the right web site helps. | 20:17 |
| holstein | yeah, til alsa gets rev'd | 20:20 |
| holstein | or a kernel update breaks it | 20:20 |
| holstein | but... i dont want to be dark | 20:21 |
| holstein | its just challenging | 20:21 |
| len | What I found challenging, was searching for all these things with no direction. I hope to save someone some trouble. Should be good for as long as 12.04 goes though. | 20:23 |
| holstein | len: you are a gentleman and a scholar! | 20:24 |
| len | My next trick is to put it all in a package... | 20:25 |
