| saidinesh5 | Ah | 15:20 |
| saidinesh5 | Hyd | 15:20 |
| saidinesh5 | ssup? | 15:20 |
| contrapunctus | Didn't know there were other UbuntuStudio folks in India! :) | 15:21 |
| contrapunctus | You a dev? | 15:21 |
| saidinesh5 | Ah well...... not of ubuntu studio.... i work on a different software | 15:21 |
| saidinesh5 | which i someday | 15:21 |
| saidinesh5 | want to get included into ubuntu studio | 15:21 |
| saidinesh5 | let me guess.... you stumbled across ubuntu studio from that coursera course? :P | 15:22 |
| contrapunctus | Coursera course? O.o | 15:22 |
| contrapunctus | Naw | 15:22 |
| saidinesh5 | Ah | 15:22 |
| saidinesh5 | it started right today | 15:22 |
| contrapunctus | Wanted to stop using Windows...tried installing Ubuntu LTS (the very first one) | 15:22 |
| saidinesh5 | digital sound design | 15:22 |
| saidinesh5 | Aah | 15:22 |
| saidinesh5 | lol what do you mean by the very first one? | 15:23 |
| contrapunctus | The first LTS | 15:23 |
| saidinesh5 | you mean the 6.04 or somethin? | 15:23 |
| contrapunctus | Yeah. | 15:23 |
| saidinesh5 | O_O | 15:23 |
| saidinesh5 | where did you even get that DVD? | 15:23 |
| contrapunctus | Real crappy choice for a beginner, abandoned it for AVLinux soon after | 15:23 |
| saidinesh5 | Ahh you mean back when you started..... | 15:23 |
| saidinesh5 | lol | 15:23 |
| contrapunctus | Settled on Ubuntu Studio+KXstudio since the last few months | 15:23 |
| contrapunctus | I got it off the internet, lol. | 15:24 |
| saidinesh5 | ya i guess i gave ubuntu studio a try back during 8.04 days i guess | 15:24 |
| saidinesh5 | Ah yes | 15:24 |
| saidinesh5 | KXStudio is quite nice....... | 15:24 |
| saidinesh5 | kudos to falktx | 15:24 |
| contrapunctus | Hell yeah. | 15:24 |
| contrapunctus | You do music as well? o.o | 15:24 |
| saidinesh5 | yep | 15:25 |
| contrapunctus | Back to practice ^^ | 15:28 |
| smartboyhw | holstein, write me a testimonial at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/smartboyhw please:) | 15:46 |
| smartboyhw | astraljava, could you also write one for me? | 15:50 |
| Lumpy | hey holstein are there any requirement to join the dev team over there at launchpad? | 16:59 |
| holstein | Lumpy: not sure | 17:00 |
| zequence | Lumpy: Yes | 17:00 |
| holstein | Lumpy: lets ask scott when he's around | 17:00 |
| holstein | maybe zequence can do it? | 17:00 |
| zequence | The dev team means you get access to Ubuntu Studio bzr branches, and a lot of other things. | 17:01 |
| holstein | Lumpy: im sure we can get you envolved | 17:01 |
| zequence | You don't need that in order to help out with development though | 17:01 |
| zequence | Lumpy: What is it that you are most interested in doing? | 17:01 |
| Lumpy | i would certainly be willing to test things | 17:01 |
| Lumpy | i already always report crashes and such | 17:01 |
| Lumpy | if they are relaqtively stable i would be willing to go to nightly builds | 17:02 |
| zequence | Lumpy: We don't have a procedure for that yet, but you are always welcome to install the development release | 17:02 |
| zequence | And do test installs as well | 17:02 |
| zequence | We don't really require doing install tests much right now | 17:03 |
| Lumpy | okay, i will look into that in the next few days | 17:03 |
| Lumpy | i need to get back to making nickles and dimes on the machine atm | 17:03 |
| Lumpy | so no installs today | 17:03 |
| Lumpy | but i am sure i can set up another partition | 17:03 |
| zequence | As for individual applications, the desktop, and things like that, I guess it's good to just try things out, and if you find a bug, report it. | 17:03 |
| Lumpy | i think i have like six operating systems on the beast atm | 17:03 |
| Lumpy | i use xfce for my desktop on my resource deprived machine | 17:04 |
| zequence | I have one install of every 32 and 64 bit since 12.04, only for testing atm | 17:04 |
| zequence | Plus a development platform, using Quantal | 17:04 |
| Lumpy | I only have one 64 bit machine and it is an oddball | 17:05 |
| Lumpy | a mac G5 | 17:06 |
| Lumpy | running xubuntu | 17:06 |
| zequence | Lumpy: You don't need both. | 17:08 |
| zequence | I have all of those only because I need to test the lowlatency kernel every time I update it | 17:08 |
| Lumpy | oh i didn't think that... just letting you know what i do have was all | 17:09 |
| Lumpy | i don't run the low latency in studio atm | 17:09 |
| zequence | Lumpy: You'd be fine with just the development release of Ubuntu Studio for whatever arch you have, currently 13.04 32bit | 17:09 |
| Lumpy | but i do in tango studio | 17:09 |
| holstein | is tango using our lowlatency kernel? | 17:12 |
| holstein | PPC support is brutal | 17:12 |
| Lumpy | i know that on the PPC | 17:13 |
| Lumpy | it took me almost two weeks just to get something installed | 17:13 |
| holstein | i was just explaing to someone what a drag it can be | 17:13 |
| Lumpy | and i am not sure what kernel tango is using exactly | 17:13 |
| holstein | had a G4.. a 700mhz.. i was just saying, move on and let it go | 17:13 |
| holstein | you can dig a computer like that out of the trash these days | 17:13 |
| Lumpy | 99% of the time the machine is running in your 12.04 with the generic kernel | 17:13 |
| holstein | a 64bit G5 is a bit more of a toss up though | 17:14 |
| Lumpy | i would have to boot the os and do a uname to be sure | 17:14 |
| holstein | thats still got some life left | 17:14 |
| Lumpy | it is one of the real early ones | 17:14 |
| Lumpy | two single core 64 bit cpus | 17:14 |
| holstein | i run one G4 X less and headless sometimes | 17:14 |
| Lumpy | but it saves me about 30% on post production matters | 17:14 |
| * Lumpy timed it with a stop watch and compared it to his 32 bit dual core intel | 17:15 | |
| zequence | Lumpy: Testing is actually very important for us. We need to catch bugs, and report them upstream much sooner, and more agressively than in the past | 17:15 |
| Lumpy | i would be willing to do that | 17:15 |
| Lumpy | and i would love to see if i can get this jack running on my PPC | 17:15 |
| zequence | Lumpy: Won't work | 17:16 |
| holstein | Lumpy: i didnt have very good luck | 17:16 |
| zequence | jackd1, but not jackd2 | 17:16 |
| Lumpy | but that is not a real critical issue | 17:16 |
| zequence | There's a bug in jackd2 that stops it from working on PPC | 17:16 |
| Lumpy | it runs great on the dual core 32 bit | 17:16 |
| Lumpy | brb | 17:16 |
| zequence | I got an iBook3 a few weeks ago. Installed Debian. Managed to compile a -rt kernel for it. But, jackd2 didn't work | 17:17 |
| * zequence is going running | 17:17 | |
| Lumpy | i wish i could run anymore | 17:22 |
| Lumpy | i have to settle for walks | 17:22 |
| Lumpy | my back and knees won't take the running anymore | 17:22 |
| zequence | Lumpy: If you like, i could introduce you to some of the structure we have for development | 18:37 |
| zequence | Lumpy: We follow blueprints. A blueprint for us is sort of like a topic. Each blueprint has a set of work items that we try get done | 18:37 |
| zequence | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStudio/Blueprints | 18:38 |
| zequence | Lumpy: Here's an example of a blueprint on launchpad. It's called workflows, and is the root for all our workflows https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/topic-ubuntustudio-r-workflows | 18:39 |
| zequence | You can click the clouds below to get to other related blueprints, up and down the tree of dependencies | 18:39 |
| zequence | Lumpy: If you find something you feel you can do, just add yourself to the work item. If you come with ideas, talk with someone about it, or just add a workitem yourself. It takes a little time to get into managing that stuff | 18:41 |
| Lumpy | i will look it over a bit later today or tomorrow | 19:02 |
| Lumpy | unfortunately i need to crank out some online work to pay the bills | 19:02 |
