[13:44] <devtekalpha> Where is the ubuntustudio install guide? I cant find it
[13:44] <devtekalpha> Shall i just use ubuntu install guide if its the samw
[13:47] <holstein> devtekalpha: just download one or the other, and try it live
[13:47] <holstein> devtekalpha: there really shouldnt need to be a guide, other thant the GUI you will see when trying it
[13:48] <holstein> you can always use ubuntu, and convert it later to ubuntustudio, or add just the packages you need to ubuntu from the ubuntustudio ones
[13:49] <holstein> ubuntustudio is ubuntu, keep in mind... any support information about instalation will be relavant
[13:49] <devtekalpha> I dont need to try just want to installl. And studio better  i know i need the audio stuff... If the install gui isnt weird or vague im sure ill be able to figure it out:)
[13:49] <devtekalpha> Ok thanks
[13:50] <devtekalpha> I found ubuntus guide so ill use it if i get stuck
[13:50] <holstein> devtekalpha: enjoy!... if you need help and its quiet in here, try #xubuntu... we use XFCE now
[13:52] <devtekalpha> Ah ok thanks :)
[14:50] <devtekalpha> Whats the difference between ubuntustudio session and xfce session? Dosnt ubuntustudio use xfce
[15:15] <len-dt> devtekalpha, you will find slight differences in menu background and the panel bars.... Well the later kind of gets setup by what you log in to first
[15:15] <len-dt> The menu setup is the big thing.
[15:16] <devtekalpha> Ok thanks
[15:16] <devtekalpha> Im trrying to setup dual monitors now on nvidia x server but the apply button is grayed out
[15:17] <devtekalpha> The buttuon got enabled for a second then i closed it to see if i could enable it again but no matter what settings i choose its still grayed out now
[15:17] <len-dt> Are you using the nvidia drivers or the free ones?
[15:18] <devtekalpha> I havnt installed any additional drivers
[15:18] <devtekalpha> But both my displays are detected
[15:18] <len-dt> free = nouveau you can see if you do lsmod
[15:19] <len-dt> If you are using the nouveau drivers then it should just work. I found I had to use two tools though.
[15:19] <len-dt> Arandr lets you set the displays side by side
[15:20] <devtekalpha> Would it be more reliable if i edit the right config file directly with gedit?
[15:20] <len-dt> xfce (and anything else these days) autodetects on boot and may change the settings
[15:21] <len-dt> Actually it detects on session start.
[15:22] <len-dt> so if you are setup for two monitors and you login with one of them turned off, all the dual monitor stuff goes away
[15:22] <devtekalpha> Well on nvidia xserver it says save x to config file (x11/xorg.conf) wont the session use that
[15:22] <devtekalpha> Oh i see
[15:22] <devtekalpha> Well i turn off secondary display a lot as it is also my tv
[15:23] <len-dt> So you are using a video out and not svga out?
[15:23] <devtekalpha> So ideally i want something which auto remembers to use both if they are both plugged inj and only primary if one is
[15:23] <devtekalpha> Primary is dvi cable. Secondary(tv) is rgb/vga analog cable
[15:24] <devtekalpha> Both are detetected with correct names in nvidiaxserver
[15:24] <len-dt> svga or dvi auto detects power on, 75ohm video detects the monitor as being there even with power off
[15:25] <len-dt> To be honest, I did not do much testing with powering the second monitor on and off. I don't use dual myself so I had to set it up just for testing.
[15:25] <devtekalpha> I see
[15:26] <len-dt> arandr has a svae function that should allow you to save the two setups. And recall the one that fits
[15:26] <len-dt> s/svae/save
[15:27] <devtekalpha> So theres no way to force the session to use a file i make? Where i can setup priorities. Id rather do some text editing if possible than install more software
[15:27] <devtekalpha> Illl try arandr though if i cant do just file editing
[15:27] <len-dt> arandr is allready installed
[15:27] <len-dt> its in settings
[15:28] <devtekalpha> Oh right. Ill find it then . Phones about to run out of battery. Thanks for the help.
[21:03] <devtekalpha> What bit torrent client would someone reccommend for ubuntu studio
[21:20] <devtekalpha> Im going with transmission
[23:09] <devtekalpha> Iv selected transparent in terminal settings but it is still solid/opaque?
[23:09] <devtekalpha> Im using ubuntustudio session not xfce if thats relevant
[23:10] <Unit193> Menu > Settings > Settings Manager > Window manager tweaks > Compositor  is it enabled?
[23:11] <devtekalpha> Ahh that solved it thanks :)
[23:13] <Unit193> Sure.
