| studio-Greg | hey peeps | 11:37 |
| studio-Greg | im in teh process of installing ubuntu studio to do sound recording and music production. does anyone have any tips or reccomendations for initial config or tweaks? | 11:39 |
| dlandry | Question about gladish in Ubuntu Studio 12.04. I can create a studio, set the command lines of the apps I want to come up all configured (Ardour, Hydrogen, a couple of instances of Yoshimi) and I can bring up the apps and shut them down one at a time, but if I shut down the studio with the apps running, when I try to start the studio again gladish seems to just hang. (I can reboot, and start up the gladish studio the first time o | 15:56 |
| dlandry | k, but if I shut down the studio and start it again it hangs -- as long as I shut down the apps individually before shutting down the studio it works, but if I leave the apps up, and try to stop and start the studio it does not work.) ... any ideas? | 15:56 |
| madzia | hello is anyone here an experienced ubuntu user and could help me a little with configuration? | 17:22 |
| plotino | hi | 19:14 |
| plotino | im trying to install ubuntustudio 12.04 on my old | 19:21 |
| plotino | pc where ubuntustudio 10.04 was installed | 19:21 |
| holstein | let us know how its failing if it is | 19:21 |
| holstein | try it live.. should work just fine :) | 19:22 |
| plotino | but when i try | 19:22 |
| plotino | i have tried live | 19:22 |
| plotino | but | 19:22 |
| plotino | mouse not working | 19:22 |
| holstein | did you get to the desktop live? | 19:22 |
| plotino | keyboard not working | 19:22 |
| plotino | i have boot the live desktop | 19:22 |
| holstein | probably something removed from the kernel that supported your hardware | 19:23 |
| holstein | depeding on the age, i might just hang with 10.04 | 19:23 |
| plotino | :( | 19:23 |
| plotino | the age of the machine | 19:23 |
| holstein | its likely something you can fix easily with your own kernel, or a module | 19:23 |
| plotino | yes | 19:23 |
| plotino | but let me ask | 19:23 |
| holstein | i would search around by manufacturer for something in the forums | 19:23 |
| plotino | i have downloladed and burn | 19:23 |
| holstein | OR, just plug in a USB keyboard and mouse | 19:23 |
| plotino | the i386 version | 19:23 |
| plotino | while the processor is an old AMD | 19:24 |
| plotino | is ti correct? | 19:24 |
| holstein | if its not, it wont boot | 19:24 |
| plotino | please the stupid question .. | 19:24 |
| plotino | because first time i have boot an error occurred | 19:24 |
| plotino | a module SIS..something was not inserted | 19:25 |
| holstein | sure.. if its old hardware, you can run into that | 19:25 |
| plotino | so what can i do? | 19:25 |
| holstein | plotino: i would run 10.04 or use a USB keyboard/mouse, or search for a module that will add support for that hardware, or build a custom kernel | 19:25 |
| holstein | the kernel must drop support for old hardware at somepoint | 19:26 |
| holstein | maybe someone in the kernel team can help you with what support has been dropped from 10.04 to 12.04 | 19:26 |
| plotino | ok | 19:27 |
| plotino | as alternative i can update my 10.04 version .. | 19:27 |
| holstein | plotino: sure, but you'll upgrade to the kernel that doesnt support your hardware | 19:27 |
| plotino | im very interested in update programs | 19:28 |
| holstein | plotino: sure... its something you can fix | 19:28 |
| plotino | as rosegarden hydrogen and also jack server | 19:28 |
| holstein | plotino: you can also add the kxstudio ppa's to 10.04 | 19:29 |
| holstein | plotino: you can build whatever you want in 10.04 and run them | 19:29 |
| plotino | infact | 19:30 |
| plotino | you are right | 19:30 |
| plotino | the point is that i have read on the ubuntu website | 19:30 |
| plotino | that it's better install 12.04 from scratch but upgrading the old issue (10.04) | 19:31 |
| holstein | plotino: upgrading wont help | 19:31 |
| holstein | plotino: you end up with the same unsupported kernel at the end of a fresh install, or upgrading from 10.04 to 12.04 | 19:32 |
| plotino | i keep the old kernel | 19:32 |
| holstein | plotino: not in an upgrade | 19:33 |
| holstein | plotino: there might be issues using an older kernel too | 19:33 |
| plotino | ok | 19:35 |
| plotino | but can i use new programs with old kernel ... | 19:35 |
| holstein | plotino: im sure you will find out | 19:35 |
| holstein | plotino: what do i suggest if and when you asked?... 10.04 with kxstudio ppa's.. build a kernel... load modules in 12.04 with support... upgrade the hardware | 19:36 |
| holstein | i dont list running a 2.6x kernel in 12.04 there for a reason | 19:36 |
| holstein | but, do what you like :) | 19:36 |
| plotino | thanks | 19:37 |
| plotino | but | 19:37 |
| plotino | i had a problem | 19:37 |
| plotino | with hydrogen in 10.04 that i hope tp fix with newer version | 19:37 |
| plotino | when i start hydrigen jack fails | 19:38 |
| plotino | im not able to manage the transport from jack ... | 19:38 |
| holstein | plotino: try the newer version | 19:38 |
| holstein | plotino: not a lot of fixes in there realy | 19:39 |
| holstein | reallY8 | 19:39 |
| holstein | plotino: those nerwer version are available in the ppa's i mentioned several times | 19:39 |
| plotino | what is ppa? | 19:39 |
| holstein | http://kxstudio.sourceforge.net/KXStudio:Repositories | 19:39 |
| holstein | plotino: its a way of using updated packages (as i am) in 10.04 (also as i am) | 19:40 |
| holstein | my using the prepackaged version from the kxstudio repositories i linked, and mentioned several times | 19:40 |
| plotino | holstein, you are using 10.04? | 19:42 |
| plotino | so you can help very much .. | 19:42 |
| holstein | plotino: thats what ive been implying | 19:42 |
| holstein | plotino: i use the kxstudio ppa's | 19:42 |
| holstein | the ones i linked | 19:43 |
| plotino | what i didnt understand if iti is a sort of distro or only packets | 19:44 |
| plotino | holstein | 19:46 |
| holstein | ypu | 19:46 |
| holstein | yes? | 19:46 |
| plotino | what i have to do? | 19:46 |
| holstein | plotino: for? | 19:46 |
| plotino | to add these repositories | 19:46 |
| holstein | plotino: there are directions | 19:46 |
| plotino | i wanna use ppa | 19:46 |
| plotino | music for example | 19:46 |
| holstein | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu#Adding_PPAs | 19:47 |
| holstein | plotino: its not trivial | 19:47 |
| holstein | plotino: i didnt just click there and add them 4 minutes later | 19:47 |
| holstein | i read about what the packages were and did | 19:47 |
| holstein | i installed them on a test machine | 19:47 |
| holstein | i test removed the pacakges with ppapurge | 19:47 |
| holstein | i dont feel comfortable telling you some paste in commands that can be potentially harmful | 19:48 |
| holstein | plotino: i used sudo add-apt-repository ppa:user/ppa-name | 19:48 |
| holstein | in the terminal | 19:48 |
| plotino | ok | 19:49 |
| plotino | first step for me shall be upìdate 10.04 | 19:49 |
| plotino | after that i will think about that | 19:49 |
| holstein | plotino: you mean? upgrade to 12.04? | 19:51 |
| holstein | i wouldnt do both | 19:51 |
| holstein | i would just run 10.04, and add those PPA's | 19:52 |
| dlandry | repeating a question I asked earlier today .. had to shut down, so if there was an answer I missed it .. sorry ... | 19:52 |
| dlandry | Question about gladish in Ubuntu Studio 12.04. I can create a studio, set the command lines of the apps I want to come up all configured (Ardour, Hydrogen, a couple of instances of Yoshimi) and I can bring up the apps and shut them down one at a time, but if I shut down the studio with the apps running, when I try to start the studio again gladish seems to just hang.

| dlandry | k, but if I shut down the studio and start it again it hangs -- as long as I shut down the apps individually before shutting down the studio it works, but if I leave the apps up, and try to stop and start the studio it does not work.) ... any ideas? | 19:52 |
| holstein | i still do it the old fashioned way dlandry | 19:53 |
| holstein | sounds like a bug | 19:53 |
| holstein | i would see if you can find the maintainer and see whats going on as far as development | 19:53 |
| holstein | for me, troubleshooting session managment just adds overhead to my workflow | 19:54 |
| holstein | and i never trust it | 19:54 |
| plotino | no no only perform the normal update of 10.04 | 19:55 |
| plotino | from when i have installed it , never updated!! | 19:55 |
| dlandry | ok, thanks ... I'll try a few more combinations and see if I can define the problem better, then maybe open a defect ... I know what you mean, but it would be so nice to have things work (I suppose I could do the same thing with bash scripts and manually start things and make connections.) | 19:56 |
| holstein | plotino: i havent updated in a while... | 19:58 |
| Lucian_Lucius | hello to everybody :) | 21:19 |
| Lucian_Lucius | how can I install libre office suite on my ubuntu studio? | 21:20 |
| holstein | Lucian_Lucius: i would just search in the package manager of your choice | 21:20 |
| vlt | Lucian_Lucius: `apt-get install libreoffice` | 21:27 |
| holstein | yup.. open a terminal, and type that ^^ | 21:29 |
| holstein | sudo apt-get install libreoffice | 21:29 |
| holstein | or, whatever package manger you are comfortable with | 21:29 |
| Lucian_Lucius | thanx :) | 21:30 |
