[00:56] <len-dt> ailo_, Got any ideas about how the screen saver/blanking should be set up for recording or other audio work?
[00:56] <len-dt> What is normal practice?
[00:57] <len-dt> Is normal practice to expect to see what is on the screen for the whole session? or is a blank screen part way through ok?
[00:59] <len-dt> holstein, same question. I am asking both from a performance point of view (does the screen turning off and on affect jack?) and from a workflow view.
[01:00] <len-dt> My thought is that with a flat screen there is no "burn in" so why a "screen saver"?
[01:01] <len-dt> So this is (for anyone who cares to comment) what do you do?
[01:58] <ailo_> len-dt: I haven't spent any time understanding the screen saver. Hasn't caused me any problems so far
[02:14] <len-dt> ailo_, I have had strange things when screen saver stopped started, but that was long time ago now. I have had problems with the nvidia card too, but that is a whole different story.
[02:14] <len-dt> The one I was using on the netbook seemed to have a memory leak though.

[02:15] <len-dt> I was just wondering from a user view if it was easier to work with a screen that was always live or if there any problem with screen blanking being a distraction.
[02:36] <ailo_> len-dt: It might be a problem if you're using something else than mouse and keyboard to control the machine, while you need to monitor visually
[02:37] <ailo_> But, usually you realize that and just disable the screen saving settings

[04:17] <len-dt> ailo_, That was the answer I was looking for... People are so used to screens blanking that it doesn't matter. The only time it does is when using an input device That x doesn't see as an input device. My other thought is that in normal use the mouse or keyboard is getting used more often than the screen time out.
[04:24] <len-dt> There is an article here that says all programs leak memory: http://www.alexonlinux.com/swap-vs-no-swap

[06:37] <frewsxcv> So I was looking at the website, and it sounds like you guys are putting together a new site?
[07:19] <ailo_> frewsxcv: A new is coming shortly, yes
[19:50] <len-dt> astraljava, is xubuntu failing to build these days too?
[20:25] <len-dt> Looks like the 1386 version is. 
[20:39] <astraljava> len-dt: I only see amd64 iso files on there, but good that you mentioned that, I have not seen emails about those builds. I have to ask around how I could get them.
[20:40] <len-dt> Ya, I was just asking on xubuntu-devel
[20:41] <len-dt> It looks like a different problem all together. Our last image is may18
