[00:55] hi [00:56] is someone here ? [01:00] i really need help for installing Ustudio :'( [01:21] 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 [01:40] 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 [01:41] megatlantis, desktop computer or laptop? [01:41] desktop [01:42] megatlantis, you said you're using a live cd. are you doing an actual "install" or just the "try ubuntu" option? [01:43] when i do a install directly , that not work , even if i wait 1 hour [01:43] i try make the install from the try ubuntu [01:43] but all my usb port stop after the desktop was load [01:44] megatlantis, do the usb ports work in the "try ubuntu" mode? [01:44] no [01:44] that happen only with ubuntu studio [01:45] megatlantis, is this a custom built computer or "store bought"? [01:45] ? [01:45] custom [01:45] q6600 with a gtx560 ti , 4go ram [01:46] work well with ubuntu and cubuntu ( i tryed both ) [01:46] megatlantis, are your usb ports built into the motherboard or are they on a separate pci card? [01:46] build in [01:47] megatlantis, did you try unplugging all other usb devices except the keyboard and mouse and then booting into the "try" mode? [01:47] i have only a keyboard + mouse + the usb key connected [01:47] when i try to install with a ps2 keyboar [01:48] the installed say the usbkey no exist .. [01:48] installer* [01:48] megatlantis, usb key? is this a wireless keyboard and mouse? [01:48] keyboard is wireless , mouse no [01:48] this is a live-usb [01:50] megatlantis, so, if you use a ps2 keyboard and usb mouse does the mouse keep working? [01:50] when the try-ubuntu is loaded [01:50] every usb of my computer is like no exist ! [01:51] megatlantis, what motherboard are you using? [01:51] ha. .. [01:52] mis p6ngm [01:52] msi* [01:56] megatlantis, which version of ubuntu studio? [01:56] 12.04 lsd [02:03] 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. [02:04] megatlantis, do you have the latest release of ustudio 12.04.1? [02:04] hmm [02:04] i have 2 dvd on ubuntu studio ( 32 and 64 bit ) [02:04] when try-ubuntu with it , the usb work 1 time /5 [02:04] so when that work , i trying install normally [02:04] but after the end , when the installer ask for restarting [02:05] there is a problem : after the load logo , i have a block screen [02:05] black screen [02:06] megatlantis, do you have the latest version of the BIOS for your mobo? [02:06] yes [02:06] when i trying to back to a normal ubuntu , with a ubuntu 12.04 dvd [02:06] the ubuntu studio desktop started ... but with my usb no working [02:08] megatlantis, overclocked at all? [02:09] no [02:11] megatlantis, so your saying that going back to the operating systems that HAD worked usb doesn't work there now either? [02:11] your > you're [02:13] hmm [02:13] when i'm on the usb-live try ubuntu desktop , the usb not work totally [02:14] 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] when doing ctrl+f3 or somthing like that , i can't have access to the terminal [02:14] but can't login with any account [02:14] when i wanted to back to a normal ubuntu system with a ubuntu dvd [02:15] he asked me something , and show me the normal ubuntu logo .. then the ubuntu studio desktop [02:15] with nothing working .. [02:18] edit : when doing ctrl+f3 or somthing like that , i can't have access to the terminal --> i can have access sorry [02:19] megatlantis, sounds more to me like a failing motherboard than anything else. [02:19] megatlantis, sorry about that... [02:19] what is happen only with studio ... [02:19] why* [02:20] i tryed more then 4 different linux os and that work [02:22] 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? [02:23] megatlantis, and are you also saying that it is ONLY ustudio that has the problem. The other distros work just fine? [02:24] exactly [02:25] hmm... [02:25] megatlantis, and if you try one of the other distros now it still works? [02:25] i'm currently on a ubuntu distrib [02:26] megatlantis, and you're typing this on the computer in question? [02:26] yes [02:27] megatlantis, ok, my misunderstanding. I thought you were saying that no distros work since you tried ustudio. [02:27] ah [02:27] no every distros working , but not studio [02:27] hmm i repeat [02:27] all distros i tested working , but not studio [02:29] megatlantis, sorry for my lack of comprehension. :) [02:29] my bad [02:30] and every distros i installed is from a usb-live [02:31] 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] megatlantis, sorry I couldn't help [02:32] :'( [02:32] i gonna retry again , then i gonna mail [02:32] that will be my ... 15th try [02:32] * StillLearnin removes the tooth picks from his eyes and falls into bed... [02:34] good night and thanks for help [02:35] that stupid linux live usb creator is not on linux -.-' === sambagirl is now known as amigamiax [05:06] StillLearnin: If he comes back, if he's using Universal USB Installer, he needs to make sure to get the latest version [05:07] StillLearnin: They just fixed a bug which was making poor US live usbs [05:10] 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 === jussio1 is now known as jussi [13:44] ailo, thanks for the info! [14:36] will US 12.04 support Ardour3 when it is finally released? [15:02] thebishop: can i help answer your question? [15:02] ScottL: His question is that will US 12.04 suppport Ardour3 when it is finally released. [15:03] ? [15:03] thebishop: i don't know the answer to that question at this time [15:03] ok [15:03] ScottL, bot? [15:03] to include Ardour3 into 12.04 would require what is called an Stable Release Update (SRU) [15:03] ah [15:04] while we may be willing and able, it would need to be approved [15:04] i certainly would like to see this include ;) [15:04] Me too:) [15:05] but we would also have to test it to verify that it would even build in 12.04 as well [15:05] Uh oh. [15:05] 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 [15:06] and getting libraries updated is difficult due to the nature of libraries and how they affect so many applications [15:06] nevermind the security component of libraries [15:12] can anyone help me with using the firewire driver in jack? [15:14] AcidRain2012: i use it... i would start by issuing "gksudo qjackctl" [15:14] this would be for testing purposes... i would run jack as root, after selecting the firewire driver [15:15] 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] share them in a pastebin if you need help interpreting them [15:15] !paste | AcidRain2012 [15:15] 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. [15:16] firewire ERR: Error creating FFADO streaming device, this is my current error. let me run it as root [15:19] http://paste.ubuntu.com/1170028/ [15:19] same error as sudo [15:21] AcidRain2012: OK... whats in the messages window? is that all? [15:21] thats all [15:22] i have a presonus audio box. this works fine on my laptop running the exact same config. no need for jack [15:22] but on 2 of my desktops, it fails. and i am forced to use jack. [15:22] but still no success in getting it to work at all [15:24] AcidRain2012: unfortunately, i was going to suggest it could be the hardware..there are some FW chipsets that just dont work [15:24] you can look in lspci [15:24] holstein: and what am i looking for? [15:24] i have a few PCI texas instruments firewire chipset cards i save [15:25] AcidRain2012: you are looking for the chipset of your firewire device [15:25] AcidRain2012: i have a few that just dont work [15:25] holstein: what i dont get, is that audacity detects jack, it detects the audio box. it detects everything. i just cant record [15:25] AcidRain2012: i dont use audacity [15:26] i would expect when JACK is running stable, everything will just work [15:26] AcidRain2012: if audacity is seeing a firewire device, i would not expect it to work [15:26] well... although i dont have a firewire device... i have been told on google searches to use this driver anyways [15:26] AcidRain2012: ? [15:27] :/ [15:27] AcidRain2012: if you dont have a firewire device, it wont work [15:27] hmmm [15:27] AcidRain2012: if that device is USB, then stop using the firewire driver [15:27] AcidRain2012: that will not work [15:27] it is usb [15:27] shit, ok. let me go back to alsa and see [15:27] AcidRain2012: Why do you use a firewire driver, when you don't even have a firewire device? [15:27] everything loads properly with also, but no success still [15:27] AcidRain2012: you will want to use ALSA... you will stop testing with the firewire driver [15:27] AcidRain2012: do the same.. kill JACK.. start JACK with gksudo.. [15:28] you will look in the 2 dropdown menus for the device [15:28] AcidRain2012: Also, next time don't say foul languages here:) [15:28] smartboyhw: sry [15:28] Only a reminder:) [15:28] if it were me, i would consider disabling the internal sound card [15:28] holstein: ok. i see usb audiobox as an option. i select that [15:28] AcidRain2012: i would consider not using JACK if all you want is to have audacity use that USB device [15:29] which options should i select? 1 is AudioBox USB. and 1 is USB Audio [15:29] AcidRain2012: i would literally test both [15:29] AcidRain2012: trust no labels with ALSA [15:29] lol [15:29] ok. here jack has started fine, with no errors [15:29] AcidRain2012: open a terminal and start alsamixer, and tweak there levels.. sometimes a channel can be muted [15:30] ok. i turned everything up with alsamixer [15:31] only a few labeled 'mic' was all the way down [15:31] AcidRain2012: cool... for the record.i did not say "turn everything up" [15:32] 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] ive spent hrs on this -.- [15:32] 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] hmmm [15:33] lets try it with jack first... but u seem confident that disabling the onboard sound card will fix something? [15:33] most of the issues folks have with JACK and alsa and sound is that the devices can jump from boot to boot [15:33] AcidRain2012: the device you just selected in JACK can change, you can reboot and it will not work [15:34] 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] holstein: right right. i understand that [15:34] AcidRain2012: if audacity or pavucontrol sees a device, it will be the USB device you are trying to use [15:34] AcidRain2012: if JACK sees a device and starts, it will be using the USB device.. [15:34] well... i wont be using the audiobox for output sound. just input [15:35] theres nothing the internal sound card can do that you will want/need when you have that othe device [15:35] 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" [15:36] if you are new to linux and linux audio, you are dealing with quite a few variables.. i suggest thinning them out [15:36] using multiple audio devices is complex in any operating system [15:37] grrrr. [15:37] can you? sure... should you? if you want to... i just suggest trying to learn JACK seperate from this. [15:37] so right now i should reboot and disable the internal sound card? [15:37] cause even after running audacity as root, and selecting jack connection kit. still nothing [15:38] 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] holstein: then let me restart :) [15:39] AcidRain2012: i also would not use JACK with audacity [15:39] what would u use? [15:39] AcidRain2012: just audacity.. [15:39] it doesnt need JACK for what you are doing [15:39] oh right. [15:39] ok. brb restarting. [15:44] ok. im on my laptop [15:45] my dekstop is still trying to enter bios settings. it appears to be detecting all of the devices attached to it [15:45] pretty slow process [15:45] OK. we'll wait [15:45] acidrain: in my opionion, you wont need ubuntustudio for what you are doing.. are you running ubuntu on the other boxes? or ubuntustudio? xubuntu? [15:46] acidrain: Audacity doesn [15:46] on my desktop right now. im running ubuntu 10.04 lucid lynx [15:46] 't need Ubuntu Studio for that. [15:46] 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] 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] on my other desktop, i am also running ubuntu studio [15:47] cool, im in the bios [15:47] acidrain: one thing to note is, between the versions is where the hardware support can change [15:48] 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] holstein, right. [15:48] so in bios, i go to onboard devices configuration [15:48] which one do i turn off :/ [15:48] 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 [15:49] i have a acpi 2.0 support, and acpi acpi support [15:49] 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] acidrain: i would look for something that says "audio" or "sound" [15:50] oops. your right. i hit wrong button [15:50] ok [15:50] HDAudio Controller is being disabled [15:50] i now save and exit [15:50] lets see what we got :D! [15:51] acidrain: now, when you reboot, the only audio you'll see in audactiy will be the device in question [15:52] there is no need to run JACK [15:52] HI!!! i iwant to set nautilus as the default file browser... what can i do?? :) [15:52] luis_: i would just run it as-needed [15:53] hmmm.... [15:53] luis_: in ubuntustudio, it should be already the default [15:53] mmm... when i open a file from the desktop it opens with thunar [15:53] 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] :S [15:54] i say "check check check" and it remains a squiggly flag line [15:54] acidrain: what are you expecting? what are you plugging in and how? i would plug into all the "ins" and test [15:54] acidrain: i would just hit record and start tweaking.. open alsamixer and trust no labels [15:54] lol. im expecting my voice to be recorded [15:55] when i open a folder from the desktop i mean :P [15:55] acidrain: sure... what i meant was, what do you have plugged in [15:55] i am plugging into only usb2.0 ports. thats all my ports [15:55] luis_: try http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1167149 [15:55] ok thanks! :) [15:55] acidrain: for the mic.. the analog audio capturing you are expeciting to catch your voice [15:55] 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] acidrain: you'll have something plugged in as a mice, otherwise, you wont have a mic being captured [15:56] mic* [15:56] holstein, i dont have an analog audio capture option anymore. [15:56] acidrain: then, nothing will be captured [15:56] :/ [15:57] acidrain: you'll need to have something going through the device [15:57] so... i need to launch jack in this case? [15:57] you cant just say "test" at the box.. it'll need a mic plugged in [15:57] acidrain: this has nothing to do with software, or the computer [15:57] omg lol. yes. i have the mic plugged into the box [15:57] acidrain: you'll need to have amic plugged in [15:57] i have my mic plugged into port 1 of the audio box [15:58] acidrain: ok.. i would plug that in all the in's to test.. i would open alsamixer and tweak [15:58] alsamixer gives no options now [15:59] i press f4 to see capture devices. "This sound device does not have any capture controls" [16:00] i press f6 to select sound device. and i selected usb audio box [16:00] but still.. "This sound device does not have any capture controls" [16:00] 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 [16:01] 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] so far only my laptop has managed to do this correctly [16:01] yup.. and thats somehting you'll need to "figure out" [16:01] :( [16:02] could be that you are selecting the incorrect device [16:02] its always a matter of just figuring out where the device is and how to configure it [16:02] its different per machine and per device [16:02] challening to have a "how-to" on it [16:02] lol. but like u said. there isnt many options in audacity. at this point ive tried them all [16:03] acidrain: i can assure you you can get that device working [16:03] run in a terminal... [16:03] aplay -l [16:03] arecord -l [16:03] pastebin them [16:05] http://pastebin.com/yeLZG0gR = command outputs [16:10] well... any more advice? [16:11] i honestly just dont know what to do. i only have 3 options in audacity. thats audiobox, pulse and default [16:11] none of which record [16:12] AcidRain2012: i think its config.. i think you'll find a config somewhere that is keeping your sound from recording [16:12] i would install pavucontrol and try there [16:12] pulseaudio controller? [16:14] well ill say this. lol. in pulse audio volume controller. i am getting a reading on the mic input for front right [16:14] but its like a constant jumping. no actual voice input [16:19] AcidRain2012: what are you expecting? the meter moving is good.. means you are likely able to select the mic somehow and use it [16:20] im saying. the meter isnt moving to my voice. it is randomly moving [16:20] acidrain: right.. and im saying, since its moving, its using *some* input on the device.. just not the mic [16:20] ooooohhhhhhhhhh [16:20] acidrain: so, all you have to do is sort out how to select that mic input instead of what it is using right now [16:21] hmmmm [16:21] i would look for that in alsamixer or pavucontrol [16:21] i would not expect JACK to help [16:21] i mean there are only 2 input ports though... could it be using the headphone? :/ [16:22] 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 [16:24] 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] if i tap the top of the audio box. the meter jumps to my taps [16:25] acidrain: the midi in is not analog.. its likely the meter is reponding to something tweaking the jack [16:25] whatever jack you are reading from right now [16:26] well i unplugged mic. meter still jumps. [16:26] which, i would determine by plugging and unplugging, or plugging and tapping.. or tweaking the sliders in alsamixer and/or pavucontrol [16:30] holstein, can u post link to send screenshots to? [16:31] i want to show u what it looks like [16:31] i use imagebin [16:35] hmmm. now for some odd reason audacity is not detecting the audiobox [16:42] ugh [16:42] yup.. alsa might crash [16:42] gotta run for a bit.. bbl [16:42] yeah i think it did [16:42] aight [16:42] alsa or pulse [16:43] alsa [16:43] well both apparently lol [16:43] acidrain: thats what i was saying.. alsa or pulse crashed [16:43] you dont know which yet, or more importantly, why [16:43] i would check for and apply all upgraged.. try diffrent kernels and alsa versions [16:44] well alsa is not working properly in audacity [16:44] but in alsa controls, it appears to be working [16:44] acidrain: it wont work at all if it has crashed [16:44] oh. it hasnt crashed then [16:44] but i am doing a restart on it [16:44] 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 [16:45] sometimes its just noot constructive to work out what or who is "at fault" [16:45] just figure out what is causing the issue and sort it, and report a bug if you can [16:46] ill keep working on it [16:47] yup.. it'll be a troubleshooting experiment at best.. presonus will not provide you a "how-to" and i cant either [16:47] i use a presonus firepod and it works great [16:47] lots of bang for the buck [16:47] anyways.. bbl [16:48] perhaps i should invest in a firepod lol [16:49] nah... you dont want to buy more devices from a company that is not supporting the OS you are using [16:49] unless you do.. im not telling you what you want to do.. im just stating facts [16:51] are you not on linux? [16:52] 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] but what can i say? i only paid 50$ for it [16:53] im lookin on your firepod here. whats the difference in a mic line, and a mic instrument? [16:53] my audiobox only has a mic instrument [17:14] 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] yes i can put that on google but... [17:16] right, i found this , maybe will be useful fro someone ( practically i'd just talked with the bear hahah) [17:16] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1983171 [17:26] reivajx: i would just not search ubuntustudio [17:26] 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 [17:27] i use dropbox to keep general things "in sync" between all my devices and computer [17:31] not that i would suggest running itunes in wine, but http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=1347 [20:01] holestein: ( sorry) i was on lunch... well just want to sync music and for the other stuff i think i can use dopbox [20:02] just wanted to know if it was possible use something like iTunes , for that i can try wine as you say [20:03] reivajx: i would not use itunes in ubuntu... but i just dont like itunes [20:03] if you have music that has been purchased in itunes, you might need to go that route [20:03] yes, well is just im just arriving to linux from osx / windows envirometns so i need to change a little bit my mentality :) [20:04] *enviroments [20:04] 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] can you sync an iphone? the short answer is, theres no reason you cant [20:05] 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] 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 [20:06] yes ur right is just need to see the things form a different point of view is all ;-) [20:07] in the end with dropbox im more than served for my goal :) [20:07] 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 [20:08] thanks a lot for that!, but i think ill be just fine now, thanks alot :) [20:08] reivajx: sure.. enjoy! [20:08] ;-)
