[22:59] <cetag> So, does Ubuntu Studio have much in common with Dick MacInnis'Dream Studio ?
[23:00] <cfhowlett> some staff is shared...
[23:00] <cetag> I mean, I expect the answer Yes, but, could someone direct me to the Ubuntu Studio site?
[23:00] <cfhowlett> www.ubuntustudio.org
[23:01] <cetag> Iǘe installed Dream Studio, on Natty - and am not having much luck, and no troubleshooting success.
[23:01] <cetag> Thanks. will take a look there.
[23:02] <cfhowlett> cetag: ask here or in the studio forums...
[23:02] <cfhowlett> http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=335
[23:03] <cetag> Got it. Will do.  PulseAudio seems fine. ALSA half works. Jack I'm yet to get running. Its a funny old business.
[23:04] <cfhowlett> cetag: you are no doubt aware that natty has already reached End of Life support?  Perhaps an upgrade is in order?
[23:05] <cfhowlett> cetag: arrgh.   never mind that comment.  worng calendar
[23:06] <cfhowlett> cetag: to your question then...what specific problem would like support with?
[23:10] <cetag> An app (Common Music "Grace"), list MIDI devices, I select Timidity, and Grace says Unspecified. Timidity will run from the Command-line and play a MIDI file. When Timidity is run as a Server from the command-line, then Grace simply lists a further 4 Timidity MIDI outputs, and similarly "unspecified" when any of the native 4 are selected, or any of the new server 4 are selected. Most strange.
[23:12] <cetag> So, I probably have a poor ALSA definition somewhere.
[23:12] <cfhowlett> cetag: I don't use Grace but searching for similarly worded issues yielded a few suggested reads...http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1281658
[23:13] <cetag> Or Timidity is not running  'natively'.
[23:13] <cetag> I'll have a look at where you point.
[23:14] <cfhowlett> cetag: you've done a superlative job of providing details.  Sorry I can't provide direct assistance but I strongly urge you to post your query on the UbuntuStudio forums
[23:15] <cetag> Sounds good. Thanks, will do. Best place for it. Beaut.
[23:15] <cfhowlett> be safe/have fun
