[00:55] <megatlantis> hi
[00:56] <megatlantis> is someone here ?
[01:00] <megatlantis> i really need help for installing Ustudio :'(
[01:21] <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
[01:40] <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
[01:41] <StillLearnin> megatlantis, desktop computer or laptop?
[01:41] <megatlantis> desktop
[01:42] <StillLearnin> megatlantis, you said you're using a live cd. are you doing an actual "install" or just the "try ubuntu" option?
[01:43] <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
[01:44] <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
[01:45] <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
[01:46] <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
[01:47] <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
[01:48] <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
[01:50] <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 !
[01:51] <StillLearnin> megatlantis, what motherboard are you using?
[01:51] <megatlantis> ha. ..
[01:52] <megatlantis> mis p6ngm
[01:52] <megatlantis> msi*
[01:56] <StillLearnin> megatlantis, which version of ubuntu studio?
[01:56] <megatlantis> 12.04 lsd
[02:03] <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.
[02:04] <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
[02:05] <megatlantis> there is a problem : after the load logo , i have a block screen
[02:05] <megatlantis> black screen
[02:06] <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
[02:08] <StillLearnin> megatlantis, overclocked at all?
[02:09] <megatlantis> no
[02:11] <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
[02:13] <megatlantis> hmm
[02:13] <megatlantis> when i'm on the usb-live try ubuntu desktop , the usb not work totally
[02:14] <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
[02:15] <megatlantis> he asked me something , and show me the normal ubuntu logo .. then the ubuntu studio desktop
[02:15] <megatlantis> with nothing working ..
[02:18] <megatlantis> edit : when doing ctrl+f3 or somthing like that , i can't have access to the terminal --> i can have access sorry
[02:19] <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*
[02:20] <megatlantis> i tryed more then 4 different linux os and that work
[02:22] <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?
[02:23] <StillLearnin> megatlantis, and are you also saying that it is ONLY ustudio that has the problem. The other distros work just fine?
[02:24] <megatlantis> exactly
[02:25] <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
[02:26] <StillLearnin> megatlantis, and you're typing this on the computer in question?
[02:26] <megatlantis> yes
[02:27] <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
[02:29] <StillLearnin> megatlantis, sorry for my lack of comprehension. :)
[02:29] <megatlantis> my bad
[02:30] <megatlantis> and every distros i installed is from a usb-live
[02:31] <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
[02:32] <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...
[02:34] <megatlantis> good night and thanks for help
[02:35] <megatlantis> that stupid linux live usb creator is not on linux -.-'
[05:06] <ailo> StillLearnin: If he comes back, if he's using Universal USB Installer, he needs to make sure to get the latest version
[05:07] <ailo> StillLearnin: They just fixed a bug which was making poor US live usbs
[05:10] <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
[13:44] <StillLearnin> ailo, thanks for the info!
[14:36] <thebishop> will US 12.04 support Ardour3 when it is finally released?
[15:02] <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.
[15:03] <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
[15:04] <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:)
[15:05] <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
[15:06] <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
[15:12] <AcidRain2012> can anyone help me with using the firewire driver in jack?
[15:14] <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
[15:15] <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
[15:16] <AcidRain2012> firewire ERR: Error creating FFADO streaming device, this is my current error. let me run it as root
[15:19] <AcidRain2012> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1170028/
[15:19] <AcidRain2012> same error as sudo
[15:21] <holstein> AcidRain2012: OK... whats in the messages window? is that all?
[15:21] <AcidRain2012> thats all
[15:22] <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
[15:24] <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
[15:25] <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
[15:26] <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: ?
[15:27] <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..
[15:28] <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
[15:29] <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
[15:30] <AcidRain2012> ok. i turned everything up with alsamixer
[15:31] <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"
[15:32] <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
[15:33] <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
[15:34] <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
[15:35] <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"
[15:36] <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
[15:37] <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
[15:38] <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 :)
[15:39] <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.
[15:44] <acidrain> ok. im on my laptop
[15:45] <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?
[15:46] <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
[15:47] <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
[15:48] <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
[15:49] <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"
[15:50] <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!
[15:51] <holstein> acidrain: now, when you reboot, the only audio you'll see in audactiy will be the device in question
[15:52] <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
[15:53] <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
[15:54] <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
[15:55] <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
[15:56] <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> :/
[15:57] <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
[15:58] <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
[15:59] <acidrain> i press f4 to see capture devices. "This sound device does not have any capture controls"
[16:00] <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
[16:01] <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> :(
[16:02] <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
[16:03] <holstein> acidrain: i can assure you you can get that device working
[16:03] <holstein> run in a terminal...
[16:03] <holstein> aplay -l
[16:03] <holstein> arecord -l
[16:03] <holstein> pastebin them
[16:05] <AcidRain2012> http://pastebin.com/yeLZG0gR   = command outputs
[16:10] <AcidRain2012> well... any more advice?
[16:11] <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
[16:12] <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?
[16:14] <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
[16:19] <holstein> AcidRain2012: what are you expecting? the meter moving is good.. means you are likely able to select the mic somehow and use it
[16:20] <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
[16:21] <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? :/
[16:22] <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
[16:24] <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
[16:25] <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
[16:26] <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
[16:30] <acidrain> holstein, can u post link to send screenshots to?
[16:31] <acidrain> i want to show u what it looks like
[16:31] <holstein> i use imagebin
[16:35] <acidrain> hmmm. now for some odd reason audacity is not detecting the audiobox
[16:42] <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
[16:43] <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
[16:44] <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
[16:45] <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
[16:46] <acidrain> ill keep working on it
[16:47] <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
[16:48] <acidrain> perhaps i should invest in a firepod lol
[16:49] <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
[16:51] <acidrain> are you not on linux?
[16:52] <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
[16:53] <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
[17:14] <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...
[17:16] <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
[17:26] <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
[17:27] <holstein> i use dropbox to keep general things "in sync" between all my devices and computer
[17:31] <holstein> not that i would suggest running itunes in wine, but http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=1347
[20:01] <reivajx> holestein: ( sorry) i was on lunch... well just want to sync music and for the other stuff i think i can use dopbox
[20:02] <reivajx> just wanted to know if it was possible use something like iTunes , for that i can try wine as you say
[20:03] <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 :)
[20:04] <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
[20:05] <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
[20:06] <reivajx> yes ur right is just need to see the things form a different point of view is all ;-)
[20:07] <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
[20:08] <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> ;-)
