=== Guest40838 is now known as Wulfyuk
holsteinWulfyuk: in XFCE?15:55
holsteini would load up a live CD, and see what is in the panel15:55
Wulfyukholstein, i think so if thats the default desktop for us 12.0415:55
holsteini would make a new user, or login in the guest account and see what is in the panel15:55
Wulfyukgood idea lets see if that works :)15:55
holsteini would literally add everything to a "test" panel and see what it what15:56
Wulfyuknever allow kids near your when your trying to work15:56
holsteini remember doing that in gnome215:56
holsteinWulfyuk: you can also ask in #xubuntu if you dont get the answer you are looking for here15:56
holsteini gotta run.. but we'll get you sorted out Wulfyuk :)15:56
Wulfyukthanks holstein  much appreciated15:56
holsteinWulfyuk: i think its going to have "notification" in the title15:56
Wulfyukcertainly my best experiance with a linux support channel so far :D15:56
Wulfyukussualy its rtfm15:57
holsteini dont have XFCE running in front of me at the moment or id just check for you :)15:57
Wulfyukno worrys im just getting used to this im really enjoying it over the mainstream os interfaces15:57

Wulfyukthanks it was the indicator plugin :) sorted thank you :)16:00
GhstWlfHow can I get mu soundblaster audigy (CA0106) to work with jack?16:01
eein_ugh i don't know how to get my sound correct with a m-audio 1010lt card16:24
eein_i can hear sound and the inputs are right but i cant seem to control it as i would assume i could16:25
vlteein_: Tried alsamixer?16:28
eein_actually im using mudita2416:29
eein_vlt: ^ supposedly it is better for m-audio cards16:29
eein_http://pastebin.com/tcZ9zt8t   my asoundrc file16:30
eein_currently my biggest issue is i'm not sure how to address channels16:36
eein_card 0: M1010LT [M Audio Delta 1010LT], device 0: ICE1712 multi [ICE1712 multi]16:36
eein_  Subdevices: 1/116:36
eein_  Subdevice #0: subdevice #016:36
eein_does that mean its hw:0,016:37
eein_im trying to setup darkice to stream, i put in device=hw:0,0 in my config but when calling that config it just returns to prompt DarkIce: DarkIceConfig.cpp:137: no current section [0]16:39
vlteein_: hmmm, should be, yes.16:39
eein_my question is if i have my input on 3/4 does hw:0,0 just mean look for anything on all channels?16:39
holsteineein_: those labels can change or jump from reboots17:51
holsteineein_: you should try and catch someone like pipemanmusic in #opensourcemusicians who has that hardware17:51
eein_holstein: its my only card, i disabled the onboard17:52
holsteineein_: should "just work" then.. its been well supporteed AFAIK17:53
eein_it does work...kinda, i'm having difficulty in programs selecting which input is "the input"17:54
ailoI don't know darkice. What audio system do you use with it?17:55
ailoPA, jack, alsa..?17:55
ailoI have the 1010LT, as well as a Delta 6617:55
eein_i installed jack but couldnt figured it, right now i just have alsa, pulse was a disaster17:55
ailoWhy was pulse a disaster?17:55
eein_i could hear line inputs even when things were muted and other oddities17:56
ailoLike inputs from your card?17:56
eein_my alsamixer was all muted could still hear distorted line 3/417:56
eein_yeah17:56
eein_removed pulse and no more17:56
eein_ailo: what audio system are you using17:57
ailoI use PA and when I use jack apps, I start jack. I don't have any problems17:57
holsteini would use JACK or pavucontrol17:58
holsteinpavucontrol is going to nned pulse, and you can try that from the live CD17:58
holsteinneed*17:58
eein_what are jack apps17:58
holsteinif you dont need JACK, dont use it17:58
eein_holstein: i had tried pavucontrol as a first step to troubleshooting but couldnt get it to show why there was a bleed from 3/417:59
holsteineein_: i would also think that could be hardware crosstalk18:00
ailoeein_: PA doesn't control the volume to the delta devices18:00
eein_right now alsa with the envy24 / mudita24 seems to be working, i just cant seem to do things like get banshee to stop using output 1/218:00
ailoeein_: mudita24 or alsamixer can do that18:00
eein_holstein: well no issues in windows and no more bleed when blowing PA out18:00
holsteinyou cant compare the drivers though.. the windows ones and the alsa ones18:01
holsteinits not fair, or accurate.. or relevant for that matter18:01
ailoeein_: PA only controls the "Main" volume, which is a software volume18:01
ailoPA uses alsa as it's base18:01
holsteinyeah, the driver support will be the same18:01
ailoBut, has a custom insterface18:01
eein_ailo: well i dont see how i assign banshee to use 5/6 as example using mudita2418:02
holsteineein_: i dont think you easily can18:02
holsteinthats not what pulse or alsa is expecting18:02
eein_:-( as an example in windows i can click on audio control and set which is default18:02
eein_nothing similar?18:03
ailoeein_: If you use alsa, you can create a custom configuration for it.18:03
ailosomething like .asoundrc in the home dir18:04
ailoOr, alsa.conf somewhere in /etc18:04
eein_ailo: http://pastebin.com/tcZ9zt8t18:04
eein_thats my asoundrc18:04
eein_but i dont see how that lets me select which output is defailt18:05
eein_so basically what i want is to have 1/2 out to a set of speakers and 5/6 out to my dj mixer18:07
eein_i want to switch which one is the output18:07
holsteinyeah... not an easy way to do that in alsa18:07
holsteinpavucontrol *might* offer some of that18:07
holsteinJACK is the tool you'd probably want to seek out18:07
holsteinyou can have routing like that in a GUI18:08
ailoWith PA you can set the card to be used as a multichannel card, but it's not very practical for that kind of thing, since there's only configs like 5.1 6.1, etc18:08
holsteinyeah... its not like "use the 2nd 2 stereo outs for this application"18:08
ailoSurely it's possible to make custom PA configs as well18:08
holsteinyou would think.. its all open afterall18:08
ailojack is the best option, if the applications support it18:09
ailoNot all do18:09
ailoBut, jack + PA bridge would solve all those problems18:09
ailoIt might be the best way18:09
ailoqjackctl can save preferred connections18:09
ailoin profiles18:10
ailoYou can switch between them18:10
ailoeein_: I recommend using PA + jack. It's the easiest way by far. You can connect any which way you want18:10
holsteinlatency is not an issue either in this setup18:11
eein_ok well i have jack18:11
ailoYou'll need PA too18:11
ailoIf you want to connect between applications that don't have support for jack, and your audio device18:11
eein_but alsa is already working, i would think jack could work with alsa18:11
ailojack uses alsa as it's driver, but not all applications support jack18:11
ailoBut you can connect PA with jack, which solves that problem18:12
ailoWith PA+jack you get access to all possible applications and connectability18:12
ailojack applications can connect to any output separately18:12
ailovlc has jack support, as has some other media players18:13
eein_well i dont see how i use jack18:13
eein_i assume i make a patch bay, using the qjackctrl frontend18:14
ailoYeah18:14
ailoYou'll need pulseaudio-module-jack to make PA connectable to jack18:14
ailoyou need jackd2, and qjackctl needs to be set with dbus support18:14
ailoI assume you are on 12.04?18:14
eein_no running mint right now, i grabbed the 12.04 studio iso but cant install just yet18:15
ailoWhen you start jack, PA will show up in jack connections18:15
ailoApplications that support jack, you can set to use jack in their respective preferences. VLC needs an addon to use jack, as does some other applications (installable from the repo)18:16
ailoJack will command the card, while PA will just be like any other jack program18:17
eein_i still dont see how i can change which out is out on jack18:18
ailoeein_: When you start jack, look in "Connect"18:19
ailoAll inputs and outputs appear there separately18:19
ailoYou make connections manually, or create custom profiles in "Patchbay"18:19
ailoYou won't see any outputs or inputs until jack is started18:20
ailoeein_: With jack you get a lot more than a "default" output18:20
ailoeein_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/ProAudioIntro/1204#The_Pulse_Audio_to_Jack_Bridge_-_using_both_at_once18:22
ailoThis is on Ubuntu 12.04, so if your Mint is older, it may not work like this (I never bothered using the bridge before 12.04)18:23
