len-1304zequence, Looking at the jackd logs again. Something looks fishy... funky, out and out strange. (not sure how any of that translates)02:09
len-1304It looks like: Jackd asks for device, PA gives it up, Jackd aquires it, qjackctl or jack_control try to connect to jackd via dbus and fail, dbus assumes jackd is not running and starts jackd, the second incarnation of jackd cannot acquire device... because jackd 1st instance already did. Everything folds.02:13
zequenceAlready had my second update to the kernels done. Some sudden bugfix probably16:05
zequencettoine: Perhaps something for Ubuntu Studio to post about? http://www.redsharknews.com/business/item/355-lightworks-for-linux-alpha-test-applications-reopen-for-very-limited-period16:09
holsteinwhy?16:10
holsteindo we ship it?16:10
holsteincan we ship it... thats the question16:11
zequenceholstein: It's interesting from a multimedia perspective, and Ubuntu Studio should be the centerpoint for that as far as Linux multimedia is concerned16:12
holsteinif it can be16:12
zequenceWe don't need to ship something in order to provide info and support for it16:12
zequenceI'm holding a Linux class at the moment. Pretty improvized, and only done two sessions so far. Installed Ubuntu with wubi and explained a bit about the differences between GNU/Linux and other OSs.16:19
zequenceEveryone did their own installs of course16:19
zequenceAnd this is like the only time I ever use Unity, and Software Center16:19
zequenceSoftware Center could behave a little better. One guy managed to get his install + upgrade to crash16:20
zequenceFixed it in the terminal, but I didn't look further into if it was possible to fix in Software Center16:21
zequenceIf no, that sort of thing is really not sexy for new users16:21
zequenceI should try it some more16:24
ttoinezequence, some time in workshop and class, I explain how to install and use synaptic16:46
ttoinezequence, yes this is interesting16:47
zequencettoine: Yeah, I must remember to do that. I've actually stopped using it myself. Only use the terminal these days. I'll be teaching them to use the terminal from now on. We'll be setting up servers and stuff16:47
holsteinzequence: nice16:48
zequenceholstein: Yeah, I'm figuring it's not that difficult is you just explain stuff in a simple way, and progress slowly. There aren't that many tools or builtin bash commands they need to learn in order to use the terminal, and the rest they can google, since they already have a basis for how to get by16:50
zequenceI'll be going through how to orientate in the filesystem. Then apt. 16:51
holsteinfile system knowlege is slipping away16:51
holsteinits a shame really16:51
holsteinthe iDevices dont share the hard drive like that...16:51
ttoinezequence, did you apply for a lightwork licence ?16:52
zequencettoine: Nope16:52
zequenceJust saw the news before posting it here16:52
ttoinezequence, for the idevices, there is an option to check in rythmbox16:52
holsteini dont think there is any way we can include lightworks due to licensing16:53
zequencettoine: I've tried rhythmbox with an iPhone, but couldn't make it work that time. I know it has worked in the past. Maybe again, don't know16:53
zequenceregistering now16:55
zequenceholstein: Yeah, if it's not going to be libre, I guess not. But, steam is not going to be libre either, and since because of its' great importance for the Ubuntu platform, it deserves attention, as it will make users more likely to be interested in using Ubuntu16:56
zequenceLightworks might fill a very deep hole for many video folks16:57
holsteinsure, be we cant give it any attention16:58
holsteinwe cant "fix" steam16:59
holsteinits made for 12.04... its kind of just the way it is16:59
holsteinit would be nice to have a lightroom live though.. if that is possible16:59
holsteinan unofficial live CD16:59
ttoinezequence, I will be a linux tester for Lightworks17:11
ttoinethanks a lot17:11
zequencettoine: Ah, great17:11
ttoinescott-work, any news from Twitter ?17:11
ttoinezequence, it is my job, to test everything;-)17:11
ttoineand I agree with you, this is the kind of news we should relay on the blog once everything will be ready17:12
zequenceIt seems it's not hard to get alpha access. I got an activation code too17:22
zequencettoine: There's no download yet, right? 17:31
scott-workttoine: no :(  i filed a notice about impersonation but i haven't heard back since17:32
ttoinezequence, not yet17:38
ttoinescott-work, did you contact the guy I gave you the email17:39
scott-worki did not and i apologize for that. if you provide that information again i will contact him this afternoon17:40
zequencettoine: I had a look at your g+ page, and your circles, specifically. I noticed you mostly subscribe to people. I'd encourage you to add pages to organizations, like Ubuntu Studio. This is where I found the news about Lightworks for instance https://plus.google.com/u/0/105875974618718456564/posts17:55
zequenceLibre Graphics World17:56
zequenceThere are tons of pages. Some better, some worse17:56
ttoinezequence, this afternoon I was off17:56
ttoinebut yes, google + is a really good place to find good news17:56
zequenceYou use searches? I don't use that a lot, but that's of course another good method17:57
ttoinezequence, I use google news and rss, twitter, ...17:57
ttoineit is hard to get everything...17:57
zequenceSince most people I know don't use g+, my circle is mostly just news sources. Yes, it's hard to filter17:58
