| megatlantis | hi | 00:55 |
|---|---|---|
| megatlantis | is someone here ? | 00:56 |
| megatlantis | i really need help for installing Ustudio :'( | 01:00 |
| StillLearnin | megatlantis, well, ask your question... there are 33 people signed in... maybe someone will know the answer, but no one can give it unless you ask | 01:21 |
| megatlantis | when i trying to install studio with a live usb , after the try-ubuntu was loaded , every usb port stop working , so my usb , mouse and keyboard can't work | 01:40 |
| StillLearnin | megatlantis, desktop computer or laptop? | 01:41 |
| megatlantis | desktop | 01:41 |
| StillLearnin | megatlantis, you said you're using a live cd. are you doing an actual "install" or just the "try ubuntu" option? | 01:42 |
| megatlantis | when i do a install directly , that not work , even if i wait 1 hour | 01:43 |
| megatlantis | i try make the install from the try ubuntu | 01:43 |
| megatlantis | but all my usb port stop after the desktop was load | 01:43 |
| StillLearnin | megatlantis, do the usb ports work in the "try ubuntu" mode? | 01:44 |
| megatlantis | no | 01:44 |
| megatlantis | that happen only with ubuntu studio | 01:44 |
| StillLearnin | megatlantis, is this a custom built computer or "store bought"? | 01:45 |
| megatlantis | ? | 01:45 |
| megatlantis | custom | 01:45 |
| megatlantis | q6600 with a gtx560 ti , 4go ram | 01:45 |
| megatlantis | work well with ubuntu and cubuntu ( i tryed both ) | 01:46 |
| StillLearnin | megatlantis, are your usb ports built into the motherboard or are they on a separate pci card? | 01:46 |
| megatlantis | build in | 01:46 |
| StillLearnin | megatlantis, did you try unplugging all other usb devices except the keyboard and mouse and then booting into the "try" mode? | 01:47 |
| megatlantis | i have only a keyboard + mouse + the usb key connected | 01:47 |
| megatlantis | when i try to install with a ps2 keyboar | 01:47 |
| megatlantis | the installed say the usbkey no exist .. | 01:48 |
| megatlantis | installer* | 01:48 |
| StillLearnin | megatlantis, usb key? is this a wireless keyboard and mouse? | 01:48 |
| megatlantis | keyboard is wireless , mouse no | 01:48 |
| megatlantis | this is a live-usb | 01:48 |
| StillLearnin | megatlantis, so, if you use a ps2 keyboard and usb mouse does the mouse keep working? | 01:50 |
| megatlantis | when the try-ubuntu is loaded | 01:50 |
| megatlantis | every usb of my computer is like no exist ! | 01:50 |
| StillLearnin | megatlantis, what motherboard are you using? | 01:51 |
| megatlantis | ha. .. | 01:51 |
| megatlantis | mis p6ngm | 01:52 |
| megatlantis | msi* | 01:52 |
| StillLearnin | megatlantis, which version of ubuntu studio? | 01:56 |
| megatlantis | 12.04 lsd | 01:56 |
| StillLearnin | megatlantis, sounds to me like ustudio isn't recognizing the chipset properly. I'm not sure what to suggest since I don't have much experience with using "live" cds. | 02:03 |
| StillLearnin | megatlantis, do you have the latest release of ustudio 12.04.1? | 02:04 |
| megatlantis | hmm | 02:04 |
| megatlantis | i have 2 dvd on ubuntu studio ( 32 and 64 bit ) | 02:04 |
| megatlantis | when try-ubuntu with it , the usb work 1 time /5 | 02:04 |
| megatlantis | so when that work , i trying install normally | 02:04 |
| megatlantis | but after the end , when the installer ask for restarting | 02:04 |
| megatlantis | there is a problem : after the load logo , i have a block screen | 02:05 |
| megatlantis | black screen | 02:05 |
| StillLearnin | megatlantis, do you have the latest version of the BIOS for your mobo? | 02:06 |
| megatlantis | yes | 02:06 |
| megatlantis | when i trying to back to a normal ubuntu , with a ubuntu 12.04 dvd | 02:06 |
| megatlantis | the ubuntu studio desktop started ... but with my usb no working | 02:06 |
| StillLearnin | megatlantis, overclocked at all? | 02:08 |
| megatlantis | no | 02:09 |
| StillLearnin | megatlantis, so your saying that going back to the operating systems that HAD worked usb doesn't work there now either? | 02:11 |
| StillLearnin | your > you're | 02:11 |
| megatlantis | hmm | 02:13 |
| megatlantis | when i'm on the usb-live try ubuntu desktop , the usb not work totally | 02:13 |
| megatlantis | when i'm on the dvd try-desktop , the usb work badly , i can make the installation , but after the restart , after the load logo of ubuntu studio , all i have is a black screen | 02:14 |
| megatlantis | when doing ctrl+f3 or somthing like that , i can't have access to the terminal | 02:14 |
| megatlantis | but can't login with any account | 02:14 |
| megatlantis | when i wanted to back to a normal ubuntu system with a ubuntu dvd | 02:14 |
| megatlantis | he asked me something , and show me the normal ubuntu logo .. then the ubuntu studio desktop | 02:15 |
| megatlantis | with nothing working .. | 02:15 |
| megatlantis | edit : when doing ctrl+f3 or somthing like that , i can't have access to the terminal --> i can have access sorry | 02:18 |
| StillLearnin | megatlantis, sounds more to me like a failing motherboard than anything else. | 02:19 |
| StillLearnin | megatlantis, sorry about that... | 02:19 |
| megatlantis | what is happen only with studio ... | 02:19 |
| megatlantis | why* | 02:19 |
| megatlantis | i tryed more then 4 different linux os and that work | 02:20 |
| StillLearnin | megatlantis, ok, maybe I misunderstood what you said before. Did you mean that booting from a usb stick gives you different operation then when booting from DVD and that both usb and dvd are using the same ubuntu studio image? | 02:22 |
| StillLearnin | megatlantis, and are you also saying that it is ONLY ustudio that has the problem. The other distros work just fine? | 02:23 |
| megatlantis | exactly | 02:24 |
| StillLearnin | hmm... | 02:25 |
| StillLearnin | megatlantis, and if you try one of the other distros now it still works? | 02:25 |
| megatlantis | i'm currently on a ubuntu distrib | 02:25 |
| StillLearnin | megatlantis, and you're typing this on the computer in question? | 02:26 |
| megatlantis | yes | 02:26 |
| StillLearnin | megatlantis, ok, my misunderstanding. I thought you were saying that no distros work since you tried ustudio. | 02:27 |
| megatlantis | ah | 02:27 |
| megatlantis | no every distros working , but not studio | 02:27 |
| megatlantis | hmm i repeat | 02:27 |
| megatlantis | all distros i tested working , but not studio | 02:27 |
| StillLearnin | megatlantis, sorry for my lack of comprehension. :) | 02:29 |
| megatlantis | my bad | 02:29 |
| megatlantis | and every distros i installed is from a usb-live | 02:30 |
| StillLearnin | megatlantis, since the problem isn't other usb devices causing conflicts, and it's not a pci card that is missing drivers, and no one else here seems to have anything to say at the moment, I'd suggest trying the mailing list or filing a bug report. | 02:31 |
| StillLearnin | megatlantis, sorry I couldn't help | 02:31 |
| megatlantis | :'( | 02:32 |
| megatlantis | i gonna retry again , then i gonna mail | 02:32 |
| megatlantis | that will be my ... 15th try | 02:32 |
| * StillLearnin removes the tooth picks from his eyes and falls into bed... | 02:32 | |
| megatlantis | good night and thanks for help | 02:34 |
| megatlantis | that stupid linux live usb creator is not on linux -.-' | 02:35 |
| === sambagirl is now known as amigamiax | ||
| ailo | StillLearnin: If he comes back, if he's using Universal USB Installer, he needs to make sure to get the latest version | 05:06 |
| ailo | StillLearnin: They just fixed a bug which was making poor US live usbs | 05:07 |
| amigamiax | i wonder why these browsers take up so much memory? i see chrome is hogging 108mb and is not even on a page. and firefox is 117mb and only have a default page...sheesh | 05:10 |

| StillLearnin | ailo, thanks for the info! | 13:44 |
| thebishop | will US 12.04 support Ardour3 when it is finally released? | 14:36 |
| ScottL | thebishop: can i help answer your question? | 15:02 |
| smartboyhw | ScottL: His question is that will US 12.04 suppport Ardour3 when it is finally released. | 15:02 |
| thebishop | ? | 15:03 |
| ScottL | thebishop: i don't know the answer to that question at this time | 15:03 |
| thebishop | ok | 15:03 |
| thebishop | ScottL, bot? | 15:03 |
| ScottL | to include Ardour3 into 12.04 would require what is called an Stable Release Update (SRU) | 15:03 |
| thebishop | ah | 15:03 |
| ScottL | while we may be willing and able, it would need to be approved | 15:04 |
| ScottL | i certainly would like to see this include ;) | 15:04 |
| smartboyhw | Me too:) | 15:04 |
| ScottL | but we would also have to test it to verify that it would even build in 12.04 as well | 15:05 |
| smartboyhw | Uh oh. | 15:05 |
| ScottL | i remember during the tail end of 8.04 i was unable to get the later versions of ardour to build at all due to mismatched libraries | 15:05 |
| ScottL | and getting libraries updated is difficult due to the nature of libraries and how they affect so many applications | 15:06 |
| ScottL | nevermind the security component of libraries | 15:06 |
| AcidRain2012 | can anyone help me with using the firewire driver in jack? | 15:12 |
| holstein | AcidRain2012: i use it... i would start by issuing "gksudo qjackctl" | 15:14 |
| holstein | this would be for testing purposes... i would run jack as root, after selecting the firewire driver | 15:14 |
| holstein | looking at the messages should help you determine what the issue is (if there is any).. then start JACK as normal user looking at the messages again | 15:15 |
| holstein | share them in a pastebin if you need help interpreting them | 15:15 |
| holstein | !paste | AcidRain2012 | 15:15 |
| ubottu | AcidRain2012: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imagebin.org/?page=add | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. | 15:15 |
| AcidRain2012 | firewire ERR: Error creating FFADO streaming device, this is my current error. let me run it as root | 15:16 |
| AcidRain2012 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/1170028/ | 15:19 |
| AcidRain2012 | same error as sudo | 15:19 |
| holstein | AcidRain2012: OK... whats in the messages window? is that all? | 15:21 |
| AcidRain2012 | thats all | 15:21 |
| AcidRain2012 | i have a presonus audio box. this works fine on my laptop running the exact same config. no need for jack | 15:22 |
| AcidRain2012 | but on 2 of my desktops, it fails. and i am forced to use jack. | 15:22 |
| AcidRain2012 | but still no success in getting it to work at all | 15:22 |
| holstein | AcidRain2012: unfortunately, i was going to suggest it could be the hardware..there are some FW chipsets that just dont work | 15:24 |
| holstein | you can look in lspci | 15:24 |
| AcidRain2012 | holstein: and what am i looking for? | 15:24 |
| holstein | i have a few PCI texas instruments firewire chipset cards i save | 15:24 |
| holstein | AcidRain2012: you are looking for the chipset of your firewire device | 15:25 |
| holstein | AcidRain2012: i have a few that just dont work | 15:25 |
| AcidRain2012 | holstein: what i dont get, is that audacity detects jack, it detects the audio box. it detects everything. i just cant record | 15:25 |
| holstein | AcidRain2012: i dont use audacity | 15:25 |
| holstein | i would expect when JACK is running stable, everything will just work | 15:26 |
| holstein | AcidRain2012: if audacity is seeing a firewire device, i would not expect it to work | 15:26 |
| AcidRain2012 | well... although i dont have a firewire device... i have been told on google searches to use this driver anyways | 15:26 |
| holstein | AcidRain2012: ? | 15:26 |
| AcidRain2012 | :/ | 15:27 |
| holstein | AcidRain2012: if you dont have a firewire device, it wont work | 15:27 |
| AcidRain2012 | hmmm | 15:27 |
| holstein | AcidRain2012: if that device is USB, then stop using the firewire driver | 15:27 |
| holstein | AcidRain2012: that will not work | 15:27 |
| AcidRain2012 | it is usb | 15:27 |
| AcidRain2012 | shit, ok. let me go back to alsa and see | 15:27 |
| smartboyhw | AcidRain2012: Why do you use a firewire driver, when you don't even have a firewire device? | 15:27 |
| AcidRain2012 | everything loads properly with also, but no success still | 15:27 |
| holstein | AcidRain2012: you will want to use ALSA... you will stop testing with the firewire driver | 15:27 |
| holstein | AcidRain2012: do the same.. kill JACK.. start JACK with gksudo.. | 15:27 |
| holstein | you will look in the 2 dropdown menus for the device | 15:28 |
| smartboyhw | AcidRain2012: Also, next time don't say foul languages here:) | 15:28 |
| AcidRain2012 | smartboyhw: sry | 15:28 |
| smartboyhw | Only a reminder:) | 15:28 |
| holstein | if it were me, i would consider disabling the internal sound card | 15:28 |
| AcidRain2012 | holstein: ok. i see usb audiobox as an option. i select that | 15:28 |
| holstein | AcidRain2012: i would consider not using JACK if all you want is to have audacity use that USB device | 15:28 |
| AcidRain2012 | which options should i select? 1 is AudioBox USB. and 1 is USB Audio | 15:29 |
| holstein | AcidRain2012: i would literally test both | 15:29 |
| holstein | AcidRain2012: trust no labels with ALSA | 15:29 |
| AcidRain2012 | lol | 15:29 |
| AcidRain2012 | ok. here jack has started fine, with no errors | 15:29 |
| holstein | AcidRain2012: open a terminal and start alsamixer, and tweak there levels.. sometimes a channel can be muted | 15:29 |
| AcidRain2012 | ok. i turned everything up with alsamixer | 15:30 |
| AcidRain2012 | only a few labeled 'mic' was all the way down | 15:31 |
| holstein | AcidRain2012: cool... for the record.i did not say "turn everything up" | 15:31 |
| AcidRain2012 | holstein: yeah i know :) just being extra safe side here. at this point i am getting help so i dont want any errors. once i find out that it works. then ill configure everything the way i need it | 15:32 |
| AcidRain2012 | ive spent hrs on this -.- | 15:32 |
| holstein | AcidRain2012: you'll need to decide how you would like to proceed. if you are just going to use audactiy, i would disable the onboard sound card in the bios, and just use audactiy without JACK | 15:32 |
| AcidRain2012 | hmmm | 15:32 |
| AcidRain2012 | lets try it with jack first... but u seem confident that disabling the onboard sound card will fix something? | 15:33 |
| holstein | most of the issues folks have with JACK and alsa and sound is that the devices can jump from boot to boot | 15:33 |
| holstein | AcidRain2012: the device you just selected in JACK can change, you can reboot and it will not work | 15:33 |
| holstein | AcidRain2012: its not an issue of "fixing"... its like this.. if you arent going to use it, it will simplify the process if its not present | 15:34 |
| AcidRain2012 | holstein: right right. i understand that | 15:34 |
| holstein | AcidRain2012: if audacity or pavucontrol sees a device, it will be the USB device you are trying to use | 15:34 |
| holstein | AcidRain2012: if JACK sees a device and starts, it will be using the USB device.. | 15:34 |
| AcidRain2012 | well... i wont be using the audiobox for output sound. just input | 15:34 |
| holstein | theres nothing the internal sound card can do that you will want/need when you have that othe device | 15:35 |
| holstein | AcidRain2012: sure.. that will be more complex.. and maybe you want to consider using the internal card alone for a bit, or the USB card to "get your feet wet" | 15:35 |
| holstein | if you are new to linux and linux audio, you are dealing with quite a few variables.. i suggest thinning them out | 15:36 |
| holstein | using multiple audio devices is complex in any operating system | 15:36 |
| AcidRain2012 | grrrr. | 15:37 |
| holstein | can you? sure... should you? if you want to... i just suggest trying to learn JACK seperate from this. | 15:37 |
| AcidRain2012 | so right now i should reboot and disable the internal sound card? | 15:37 |
| AcidRain2012 | cause even after running audacity as root, and selecting jack connection kit. still nothing | 15:37 |
| holstein | AcidRain2012: its up to you... im only suggesting that, as i said, as a way to simplify what you are doing right now, which is testing the USB card with audacity, which doesnt require JACK or an onboard sound card | 15:38 |
| AcidRain2012 | holstein: then let me restart :) | 15:38 |
| holstein | AcidRain2012: i also would not use JACK with audacity | 15:39 |
| AcidRain2012 | what would u use? | 15:39 |
| holstein | AcidRain2012: just audacity.. | 15:39 |
| holstein | it doesnt need JACK for what you are doing | 15:39 |
| AcidRain2012 | oh right. | 15:39 |
| AcidRain2012 | ok. brb restarting. | 15:39 |
| acidrain | ok. im on my laptop | 15:44 |
| acidrain | my dekstop is still trying to enter bios settings. it appears to be detecting all of the devices attached to it | 15:45 |
| acidrain | pretty slow process | 15:45 |
| smartboyhw | OK. we'll wait | 15:45 |
| holstein | acidrain: in my opionion, you wont need ubuntustudio for what you are doing.. are you running ubuntu on the other boxes? or ubuntustudio? xubuntu? | 15:45 |
| smartboyhw | acidrain: Audacity doesn | 15:46 |
| acidrain | on my desktop right now. im running ubuntu 10.04 lucid lynx | 15:46 |
| smartboyhw | 't need Ubuntu Studio for that. | 15:46 |
| acidrain | here, i am running ubuntu studio. and it works fine out of the box. but it has worked fine on every flavor of linux out of the box with that said... | 15:46 |
| holstein | acidrain: you can run that same OS.. you just need audacity for your needs.. and 10.04 will be supported for a bit longer | 15:46 |
| acidrain | on my other desktop, i am also running ubuntu studio | 15:46 |
| acidrain | cool, im in the bios | 15:47 |
| holstein | acidrain: one thing to note is, between the versions is where the hardware support can change | 15:47 |
| holstein | acidrain: ubuntustudio 12.04 and ubuntu 12.04 are quite similar, and share the same hardware support base.. similar kernels and same alsa version | 15:48 |
| acidrain | holstein, right. | 15:48 |
| acidrain | so in bios, i go to onboard devices configuration | 15:48 |
| acidrain | which one do i turn off :/ | 15:48 |
| holstein | in contract, ubuntu 10.04 and ubuntu 12.04, though sharing the same name, have quite different packages and can have quite different hardware support | 15:48 |
| acidrain | i have a acpi 2.0 support, and acpi acpi support | 15:49 |
| holstein | acidrain: this will be hardware specific.. and is intended to "simplify" this process.. if you dont feel that it is simple in there, dont bother | 15:49 |
| holstein | acidrain: i would look for something that says "audio" or "sound" | 15:49 |
| acidrain | oops. your right. i hit wrong button | 15:50 |
| acidrain | ok | 15:50 |
| acidrain | HDAudio Controller is being disabled | 15:50 |
| acidrain | i now save and exit | 15:50 |
| acidrain | lets see what we got :D! | 15:50 |
| holstein | acidrain: now, when you reboot, the only audio you'll see in audactiy will be the device in question | 15:51 |
| holstein | there is no need to run JACK | 15:52 |
| luis_ | HI!!! i iwant to set nautilus as the default file browser... what can i do?? :) | 15:52 |
| holstein | luis_: i would just run it as-needed | 15:52 |
| acidrain | hmmm.... | 15:53 |
| holstein | luis_: in ubuntustudio, it should be already the default | 15:53 |
| luis_ | mmm... when i open a file from the desktop it opens with thunar | 15:53 |
| acidrain | holstein, seems to be the same issue. i could always just select "audiobox usb: usb audio (hw:1,0)" as the recording device. it still doesnt record | 15:53 |
| luis_ | :S | 15:53 |
| acidrain | i say "check check check" and it remains a squiggly flag line | 15:54 |
| holstein | acidrain: what are you expecting? what are you plugging in and how? i would plug into all the "ins" and test | 15:54 |
| holstein | acidrain: i would just hit record and start tweaking.. open alsamixer and trust no labels | 15:54 |
| acidrain | lol. im expecting my voice to be recorded | 15:54 |
| luis_ | when i open a folder from the desktop i mean :P | 15:55 |
| holstein | acidrain: sure... what i meant was, what do you have plugged in | 15:55 |
| acidrain | i am plugging into only usb2.0 ports. thats all my ports | 15:55 |
| holstein | luis_: try http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1167149 | 15:55 |
| luis_ | ok thanks! :) | 15:55 |
| holstein | acidrain: for the mic.. the analog audio capturing you are expeciting to catch your voice | 15:55 |
| acidrain | i have several external hdds plugged in. but every usb port i have is a 2.0. only device i have plugged in is audio box | 15:55 |
| holstein | acidrain: you'll have something plugged in as a mice, otherwise, you wont have a mic being captured | 15:55 |
| holstein | mic* | 15:56 |
| acidrain | holstein, i dont have an analog audio capture option anymore. | 15:56 |
| holstein | acidrain: then, nothing will be captured | 15:56 |
| acidrain | :/ | 15:56 |
| holstein | acidrain: you'll need to have something going through the device | 15:57 |
| acidrain | so... i need to launch jack in this case? | 15:57 |
| holstein | you cant just say "test" at the box.. it'll need a mic plugged in | 15:57 |
| holstein | acidrain: this has nothing to do with software, or the computer | 15:57 |
| acidrain | omg lol. yes. i have the mic plugged into the box | 15:57 |
| holstein | acidrain: you'll need to have amic plugged in | 15:57 |
| acidrain | i have my mic plugged into port 1 of the audio box | 15:57 |
| holstein | acidrain: ok.. i would plug that in all the in's to test.. i would open alsamixer and tweak | 15:58 |
| acidrain | alsamixer gives no options now | 15:58 |
| acidrain | i press f4 to see capture devices. "This sound device does not have any capture controls" | 15:59 |
| acidrain | i press f6 to select sound device. and i selected usb audio box | 16:00 |
| acidrain | but still.. "This sound device does not have any capture controls" | 16:00 |
| holstein | acidrain: thats the process i would follow.. i would also consider that maybe that device needs a different alsa version, or kernel.. if it works "out of the box" with 10.04, i might just run 10.04 | 16:00 |
| acidrain | ah. but u see. i had 10.04 on my laptop before. and it worked out of the box. i had 10.04 on my desktop, and it didnt work | 16:01 |
| acidrain | so far only my laptop has managed to do this correctly | 16:01 |
| holstein | yup.. and thats somehting you'll need to "figure out" | 16:01 |
| acidrain | :( | 16:01 |
| holstein | could be that you are selecting the incorrect device | 16:02 |
| holstein | its always a matter of just figuring out where the device is and how to configure it | 16:02 |
| holstein | its different per machine and per device | 16:02 |
| holstein | challening to have a "how-to" on it | 16:02 |
| acidrain | lol. but like u said. there isnt many options in audacity. at this point ive tried them all | 16:02 |
| holstein | acidrain: i can assure you you can get that device working | 16:03 |
| holstein | run in a terminal... | 16:03 |

| AcidRain2012 | well... any more advice? | 16:10 |
| AcidRain2012 | i honestly just dont know what to do. i only have 3 options in audacity. thats audiobox, pulse and default | 16:11 |
| AcidRain2012 | none of which record | 16:11 |
| holstein | AcidRain2012: i think its config.. i think you'll find a config somewhere that is keeping your sound from recording | 16:12 |
| holstein | i would install pavucontrol and try there | 16:12 |
| AcidRain2012 | pulseaudio controller? | 16:12 |
| AcidRain2012 | well ill say this. lol. in pulse audio volume controller. i am getting a reading on the mic input for front right | 16:14 |
| AcidRain2012 | but its like a constant jumping. no actual voice input | 16:14 |
| holstein | AcidRain2012: what are you expecting? the meter moving is good.. means you are likely able to select the mic somehow and use it | 16:19 |
| acidrain | im saying. the meter isnt moving to my voice. it is randomly moving | 16:20 |
| holstein | acidrain: right.. and im saying, since its moving, its using *some* input on the device.. just not the mic | 16:20 |
| acidrain | ooooohhhhhhhhhh | 16:20 |
| holstein | acidrain: so, all you have to do is sort out how to select that mic input instead of what it is using right now | 16:20 |
| acidrain | hmmmm | 16:21 |
| holstein | i would look for that in alsamixer or pavucontrol | 16:21 |
| holstein | i would not expect JACK to help | 16:21 |
| acidrain | i mean there are only 2 input ports though... could it be using the headphone? :/ | 16:21 |
| holstein | i would have to have it in front of me.. i would not expect it to be the headphone port, though i can think of several ways to test and confirm that its not the headphone port that i would just do if i thought it were the headphone jack | 16:22 |
| acidrain | holstein, you are indeed right it appears. there is a midi input port on the back that i didnt notice. it looks like it might be trying to read from that | 16:24 |
| acidrain | if i tap the top of the audio box. the meter jumps to my taps | 16:24 |
| holstein | acidrain: the midi in is not analog.. its likely the meter is reponding to something tweaking the jack | 16:25 |
| holstein | whatever jack you are reading from right now | 16:25 |
| acidrain | well i unplugged mic. meter still jumps. | 16:26 |
| holstein | which, i would determine by plugging and unplugging, or plugging and tapping.. or tweaking the sliders in alsamixer and/or pavucontrol | 16:26 |
| acidrain | holstein, can u post link to send screenshots to? | 16:30 |
| acidrain | i want to show u what it looks like | 16:31 |
| holstein | i use imagebin | 16:31 |
| acidrain | hmmm. now for some odd reason audacity is not detecting the audiobox | 16:35 |
| acidrain | ugh | 16:42 |
| holstein | yup.. alsa might crash | 16:42 |
| holstein | gotta run for a bit.. bbl | 16:42 |
| acidrain | yeah i think it did | 16:42 |
| acidrain | aight | 16:42 |
| holstein | alsa or pulse | 16:42 |
| acidrain | alsa | 16:43 |
| acidrain | well both apparently lol | 16:43 |
| holstein | acidrain: thats what i was saying.. alsa or pulse crashed | 16:43 |
| holstein | you dont know which yet, or more importantly, why | 16:43 |
| holstein | i would check for and apply all upgraged.. try diffrent kernels and alsa versions | 16:43 |
| acidrain | well alsa is not working properly in audacity | 16:44 |
| acidrain | but in alsa controls, it appears to be working | 16:44 |
| holstein | acidrain: it wont work at all if it has crashed | 16:44 |
| acidrain | oh. it hasnt crashed then | 16:44 |
| acidrain | but i am doing a restart on it | 16:44 |
| holstein | and alsa is doing what it does.. try and support your audio hardware.. its the hardware interacting with the software/drivers that is the issue | 16:44 |
| holstein | sometimes its just noot constructive to work out what or who is "at fault" | 16:45 |
| holstein | just figure out what is causing the issue and sort it, and report a bug if you can | 16:45 |
| acidrain | ill keep working on it | 16:46 |
| holstein | yup.. it'll be a troubleshooting experiment at best.. presonus will not provide you a "how-to" and i cant either | 16:47 |
| holstein | i use a presonus firepod and it works great | 16:47 |
| holstein | lots of bang for the buck | 16:47 |
| holstein | anyways.. bbl | 16:47 |
| acidrain | perhaps i should invest in a firepod lol | 16:48 |
| holstein | nah... you dont want to buy more devices from a company that is not supporting the OS you are using | 16:49 |
| holstein | unless you do.. im not telling you what you want to do.. im just stating facts | 16:49 |
| acidrain | are you not on linux? | 16:51 |
| acidrain | im just going to have to conclude that if i have everything matching on my laptop here, to my desktop, and they dont work the same. that audiobox is not a good option | 16:52 |
| acidrain | but what can i say? i only paid 50$ for it | 16:52 |
| acidrain | im lookin on your firepod here. whats the difference in a mic line, and a mic instrument? | 16:53 |
| acidrain | my audiobox only has a mic instrument | 16:53 |
| reivajx | Hello there :), have a question, does anybody knows were can i start to search for "sync iphone 4s and ubuntustudio" is there any keyword to start to google it? :) | 17:14 |
| reivajx | yes i can put that on google but... | 17:14 |
| reivajx | right, i found this , maybe will be useful fro someone ( practically i'd just talked with the bear hahah) | 17:16 |
| reivajx | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1983171 | 17:16 |
| holstein | reivajx: i would just not search ubuntustudio | 17:26 |
| holstein | i would just search ubuntu.. what are you wanting to "sync"?.. i havent plugged a cable between my phone and computer to sync anthing in about 4 years or so | 17:26 |
| holstein | i use dropbox to keep general things "in sync" between all my devices and computer | 17:27 |
| holstein | not that i would suggest running itunes in wine, but http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=1347 | 17:31 |
| reivajx | holestein: ( sorry) i was on lunch... well just want to sync music and for the other stuff i think i can use dopbox | 20:01 |
| reivajx | just wanted to know if it was possible use something like iTunes , for that i can try wine as you say | 20:02 |
| holstein | reivajx: i would not use itunes in ubuntu... but i just dont like itunes | 20:03 |
| holstein | if you have music that has been purchased in itunes, you might need to go that route | 20:03 |
| reivajx | yes, well is just im just arriving to linux from osx / windows envirometns so i need to change a little bit my mentality :) | 20:03 |
| reivajx | *enviroments | 20:04 |
| holstein | there are plenty of options, and i think the first thing to realize is, this is not an ubuntustudio specific question, so, though i am not kicking you out by any means, you can ask in the more general and arguably more supported avenues of ubuntu | 20:04 |
| holstein | can you sync an iphone? the short answer is, theres no reason you cant | 20:04 |
| holstein | the long answer looks more like this.. theres nothing in ubuntu or any of the music players that is preventing apple from allowing you to sync things to your device | 20:05 |
| reivajx | offcourse i'm not feel my self kicked out :-) , but i understand what you say, no problem, i have found a big universe on linux so as you say a lto of option | 20:05 |
| reivajx | yes ur right is just need to see the things form a different point of view is all ;-) | 20:06 |
| reivajx | in the end with dropbox im more than served for my goal :) | 20:07 |
| holstein | reivajx: there was a guy in my local LUG that did a presentation on syncing ipods in ubuntu... it was quite a while back and wont be relavant now, but let me know if you dont get what you are looking for and i can try and find someone like that for you to talk to | 20:07 |
| reivajx | thanks a lot for that!, but i think ill be just fine now, thanks alot :) | 20:08 |
| holstein | reivajx: sure.. enjoy! | 20:08 |
| reivajx | ;-) | 20:08 |
