[17:14] <mpage> Have been trying to compile non-daw on ubuntustudio 12.04, but it fails
[17:14] <holstein> mpage: i would try refering to the non-daw documentation
[17:14] <holstein> also could be some ubuntu specific pacakge that is causing an issue
[17:14] <mpage> the non-daw people seem to think there is something strange in the way ubuntu links libraries
[17:15] <holstein> mpage: everyone does, and thats not "un-true"
[17:15] <holstein> mpage: its part of why everything "just works" though
[17:16] <holstein> i would just use a PPA, like the kxstudio ones
[17:16] <holstein> try just grabbing a *.deb
[17:16] <holstein> https://launchpad.net/~kxstudio-team/+archive/ppa/+build/3432111
[17:20] <mpage> thankyou, I had searched but I hadn't found anything non-daw is rather ambiguous as a name.
[18:25] <DJGDI> After 3 years of working with linux, I finally learn how to use IRC.
[18:27] <DJGDI> Has anyone else had a problem in UbuntuStudio 11 running in a virtual machine where the mouse wouldn't operate properly (move) after an instillation?
[18:28] <holstein> DJGDI: 11.04? 11.10?
[18:28] <holstein> using ubuntustudio in a virtual host?
[18:28] <DJGDI> 11.10
[18:28] <holstein> vmware? virtualbox?
[18:28] <DJGDI> VirtualBox
[18:28] <holstein> ubuntustudio is the host or the guest?
[18:28] <DJGDI> If I could install it on my old box, I would.
[18:28] <DJGDI> It's the guest.
[18:28] <holstein> i wouldnt expect much from ubuntustudio as the guest
[18:29] <holstein> most of the reasons why you would use it wont really translate all that well virtualized
[18:29] <DJGDI> I have an old box that has just enough power to run it all right, but it won't install correctly.
[18:29] <holstein> but, in my tests, the curosor works fine
[18:29] <holstein> i would install the guest additions
[18:29] <DJGDI> Yeah, live works all right
[18:29] <DJGDI> I can't install on a live dvd image.
[18:30] <DJGDI> I'd have to have a flash drive set up for persistance.
[18:30] <DJGDI> I tried.
[18:30] <holstein> DJGDI: i assume you mean the 12.04 live?
[18:30] <holstein> there is not 11.10 live ubuntustudio
[18:30] <DJGDI> either one live
[18:30] <holstein> DJGDI: nope
[18:30] <holstein> DJGDI: there is no 11.10 live, so maybe you are refering to main ubuntu?
[18:30] <holstein> xubuntu?
[18:30] <holstein> either way, i dont make persistent USB sticks
[18:31] <holstein> i just install to the USB media like a hard drive or whatever,and end up with a full normal installation running on the USB
[18:31] <holstein> if 12.04 runs great live, then you can expect the same installed
[18:31] <holstein> the kernel support will be different
[18:31] <DJGDI> Well, the name of the image is 'ubuntustudio-11.10-alternate-amd64.iso'
[18:31] <holstein> DJGDI: yup.. thats not live
[18:32] <holstein> DJGDI: regardless, if you would like to fix said cursor issues, i would install the guest additions package
[18:32] <DJGDI> Well, I've had similar issues with regular Ubuntu (multiple recent versions) on my other machines.
[18:32] <holstein> DJGDI: ubuntustudio *is* ubuntu
[18:32] <DJGDI> Until I [ctrl]+[alt]+[F4] and update, the mouse is broken.
[18:33] <holstein> the same repos.. the same hardware support.. the same access to the same kernels
[18:33] <holstein> DJGDI: so, the mouse works now?
[18:33] <DJGDI> I'm running it live right now while it virtually upgrades.
[18:33] <holstein> DJGDI: i would install the virtualbox guest additions package inside the guest OS's
[18:33] <DJGDI> So, it should be 12 after this
[18:33] <holstein> DJGDI: running what live?
[18:33] <DJGDI> I can't reach it without a mouse. :(
[18:33] <holstein> DJGDI: there is not 11.10 live...
[18:33] <holstein> DJGDI: reach what?
[18:34] <DJGDI> I'm running UbuntuStudio 12 live right now.
[18:34] <holstein> you can install the geust additions from the host
[18:34] <holstein> you mount it, and then you can do it from a terminal inside the guest without a mouse
[18:34] <DJGDI> I can't reach the window to install the guest additions.
[18:34] <holstein> DJGDI: so, the host has no mouse?
[18:34] <holstein> DJGDI: im not following
[18:34] <holstein> DJGDI: maybe you should try and take screenshots?
[18:35] <holstein> this is also not at all ubuntustudio related if you'd prefer to seek help in #ubuntu
[18:35] <DJGDI> The problem was that I could not move the cursur.
[18:35] <holstein> DJGDI: correct.. but where?
[18:35] <holstein> in 12.04 running live?
[18:35] <holstein> is that in virtualbox as a guest?
[18:35] <DJGDI> Only a problem in the guest UbuntuStudio
[18:35] <holstein> is that on metal?
[18:35] <holstein> whats 11.10?
[18:35] <holstein> ubuntustudio?
[18:35] <holstein> im not following
[18:36] <holstein> DJGDI: regardless, if its a guest in vbox.. guest additions should fix it
[18:36] <DJGDI> Well, the update is done. I'll check #ubuntu if it still gives me issues.
[18:36] <holstein> and i installed once without the mouse
[18:36] <DJGDI> Have a good day. :)
[18:36] <holstein> sure. .good luck!
