falktx_ailo: lmms *can't* import fls projects00:51
falktx_it could import fls6 projects barely some time ago, long time ago00:51
falktx_fl studio is now at version 10, since a long time too00:51
falktx_so, it can import very old files barely and in a broken way, but that's not useful at all (I think)00:52
falktx_it's not my right to say this, but I believe lmms devs lost interest on it01:05
holsteinis acid the same as frootyloops?04:21
ailofalktx: That was the impression I got too, that it wouldn't import newer project files. So, perhaps not so useful than.12:20
ailolen-dt: I meant the package, but read later that you already mentioned this in your email12:21
ailoThere seems to be one update a year approximately, to the orig source12:21
ailoAnd as falktx said, not that much has happened the last couple of years12:22
ailoholstein: I only know that Fruity Loops changed into FL Studio (Fruity Loops studio)12:26
falktxailo: I was referring to upstream, the actual lmms devs don't seem to have interest on their own project12:32
falktxthe last 0.4.13 release is mostly outside patches12:33
ailofalktx: That was what I was referring to as well12:40
ailoNot that much has happened the two last years12:40
ailolen-dt: holstein I still think it has a nice instrument interface, and just the fact that it works without jack makes it unique12:42
ailoEven if considered a toy, which is not much updatede12:42
holsteinailo: i think the jack part needs to be disabled or removed... just clean it up as is13:52
smartboyhw:D13:52
len-dtholstein, has someone verified that the jack part has problems still?14:33
len-dtJack would allow the use of a FW device.14:33
len-dtIt seems better that LMMS ->pulse->jack anyway.14:34
smartboyhw!14:35
smartboyhwlen-dt, want to have a go at the post-installation testcase?:D14:35
* len-dt thinks it may be a good idea to see if using pulse in between is still better too.14:36
len-dtsmartboyhw, it will be sometime next cycle.14:36
smartboyhwlen-dt, what?14:36
len-dtthis cycle we are done14:36
len-dttesting LMMS.14:36
smartboyhwlen-dt, no no no not about LMMS...........14:37
smartboyhwYou don't want to edit https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/QuantalTestcaseUpdates/UbuntuStudioTestcase ?14:37
len-dtISO testing is really hard for me right now because my machine that I use for testing has no video unless I drag it downstairs and use an esternal monitor.14:37
smartboyhwlen-dt, eh..........14:38
len-dtHow come Bug 153837 is showing up in my email as confirmed today?14:40
ubottuLaunchpad bug 153837 in ubuntustudio-look (Ubuntu) "gdm shows empty face browser" [Low,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/15383714:40
len-dtWe don't use GDM.14:40
astraljavaSo easily invalidated.14:41
len-dtthis is for gutsy? is that even still supported?14:41
smartboyhwI think just close the bug14:41
smartboyhwWho is that Thomas Hotz guy?...14:41
len-dtI marked it invalid and left a note tha says US doesn't use GDM14:44
smartboyhwyeah14:44
len-dtFunny thing is that the bug reports know me, but the upload place doesn't?14:46
smartboyhwlen-dt, er........14:46
len-dtThe bug reports page puts a link to my launchpad home page, but if I upload a change to a branch it doesn't14:47
smartboyhwlen-dt, funny indeed14:49
len-dtAnyway, to be honest, I am pretty happy with US as it sits for this cycle. I think it is a good next step.14:53
smartboyhwlen-dt, I think it is ready for release already!:D14:54
len-dtI'm really not sure what to add/change next cycle...14:54
* smartboyhw also14:54
len-dtsmartboyhw, I would like to see micahg release our last fix to -settings.14:54
smartboyhwlen-dt, yeh he didn't:D14:55
smartboyhwsince he is on vacation14:55
len-dthe only has so much time... just like all of us.14:55
smartboyhwI do have packaged it in my ppa (using Launchpad recipes):D14:55
falktxis next cycle LTS?14:56
smartboyhwfalktx, no no no14:56
len-dtfalktx, no, that was last cycle 12.0414:56
falktx12.10 -> 13.04, so I guess no14:56
smartboyhwfalktx, 14.04 is:D14:56
falktxyep14:56
falktxI guess it will be time to try to get my cadence tools into debian14:59
smartboyhwfalktx, good:D14:59
len-dtfalktx, Sounds great14:59
len-dtThat is the one thing I can see doing is adding applications that act as workflow glue15:00
smartboyhw:)15:00
len-dtnot major things, but utilities that make the applications we have work together better.15:01
smartboyhw:)15:01
len-dtI would like to see us do more in the way of trying system tweaks for some of the other workflows besides just audio as well.15:02
smartboyhwYeah I agree15:03
len-dtI have heard that it is worthwhile using the performance governor for graphics rendering and maybe in some video places as well.15:04
smartboyhwVIDEO!15:04
len-dtThe other place that could use some love is the install. While it is nice to have the live ISO have everything, it would be nice to just install the workflows needed.15:07
len-dtI don't know if they are finished playing around with the installer yet though15:08
smartboyhwlen-dt, I don't think so15:08
len-dtThere are supposed to be changes to it coming that would make this a lot easier.15:08
smartboyhw:D15:09
micahglen-dt: yeah, will upload today15:31
smartboyhwYEAH YEAH YEAH15:31
len-dtmicahg, thank you very much15:31
micahglen-dt: but I'm off after today until after Final Freeze (Tue 2100 UTC), so if you need any other changes, please find someone else to upload them15:32
smartboyhwOops that is bad...But then really nothing to change :D15:32
len-dtPersonally, I'm done.15:32
micahgpatch pilot in #ubuntu-devel is generally a good choice15:32
len-dtmicahg, I would still be happy with things the way they are, I feel I have made the most of what I had for this cycle.15:33
smartboyhw;D15:33
smartboyhwlen-dt, your work items have a lot of "DONE"s15:34
* smartboyhw finds scott-work with a lot of "POSTPONED":D15:34
ailolen-dt: I was just looking at the menu. Why are some apps grouped together under a separator?15:34
len-dtYes but they are mostly menu fixes15:34
len-dtYou mean in audio?15:34
ailolen-dt: I can see the logic of grouping qjackctl, gladish and patchage, but not with a virtual midi keyboard etc15:34
len-dtthat is work flow related15:35
ailoYeah, the audio menu15:35
smartboyhwlen-dt, yes15:35
len-dtthe stuff at the bottom is whatever didn't fit above15:35
ailoWhat is the idea with what is above then?15:35
len-dtmajor apps in workflow order then utilities then whatever else.15:36
ailoWorkflow order?15:36
ailoI don't see any particular order15:36
* smartboyhw doesn't too15:37
len-dtOk maybe I got it wrong...15:37
smartboyhwlen-dt, congrats15:37
ailoI'd rather they be in alphabetical order. And as for qjackctl + other jack control apps, I can see why they could be grouped together15:37
ailoEven in a menu of their own15:37
len-dtI think I had composition then ... I can't remember... it has been so long sinse I did it.15:38
* smartboyhw agrees too:D15:38
* len-dt wonders why this is the first he is hearing this15:38
ailolen-dt: There's only that which bothers me right now. I never looked at that before.15:38
smartboyhwah15:39
* smartboyhw did look at that before15:39
ailoI just took for granted they were in alphabetical order15:39
len-dtfirst thing next cycle15:39
smartboyhwlen-dt, last thing THIS cycle please15:39
len-dtI did ask about the order at that time.15:39
len-dtsmartboyhw, then someone else will have to do it.15:39
smartboyhwOK15:39
smartboyhwlen-dt, er ailo can do it:D15:40
len-dtI did run it past Scott with a screen shot and he agreed.15:40
len-dtThe message and screen shot were on the list for anyone to look at15:40
ailoI would have said something sooner, had I just put my eyes on it for one minute15:41
ailoI was doing other things before15:41
ailoI was never interested in the desktop customization bit, but it seems I'm required to do that too15:41
ailomicahg: Let me just make one more change to the source. Let you know when it's done15:42
micahgailo: ok15:42
len-dtThanks ailo .15:43
smartboyhwthx ailo15:45
ailolen-dt: I'm thinking of putting all the jack and midi control applications above the separator, and letting all the other "include"s wind up under it15:51
ailoWhat do you thing?15:51
ailothink*15:51
smartboyhwailo, just to leave a message before I go: Make sure you edit https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/QuantalTestcaseUpdates/UbuntuStudioTestcase again before it reaches the deadline. A friendly reminder:D15:51
* smartboyhw agrees15:52
ailosmartboyhw: I would love to add more to it, but there's a problem with the other areas for me, like video and graphics15:52
ailoI'll have another look at the audio bit, and see if it can be imroved15:52
smartboyhwailo, oh alright then15:52
len-dtailo, it is fine with me... you have to start jack before you do anything so close to the top is nice.15:53
* len-dt has to go too15:53
ailolen-dt: Good. See you later15:54
ailomicahg: All done16:07
micahgthanks16:08
micahgok, -default-settings uploaded and waiting in queue20:22
