guest-2uz4bz | Hello | 03:59 |
---|---|---|
cfhowlett | guest-2uz4bz, greetings. | 04:01 |
guest-2uz4bz | I'm hyaving a bit of a problem | 04:04 |
cfhowlett | guest-2uz4bz, state the issue with details please | 04:04 |
guest-2uz4bz | I just installed studio 12.10 , and all of a sudden there is some kind of boot loop at the login screen, so I'm using the guest acc now | 04:05 |
guest-2uz4bz | I mean login loop | 04:05 |
cfhowlett | guest-2uz4bz, so you can't login at all then? | 04:06 |
guest-2uz4bz | I can login using the ctrl+alt+f1, but not with the normal gui | 04:07 |
cfhowlett | guest-2uz4bz, see the link ... http://askubuntu.com/questions/223501/ubuntu-12-10-gets-stuck-in-a-login-loop | 04:09 |
guest-2uz4bz | chown username:username .Xauthority | 04:14 |
guest-2uz4bz | I put this into the terminal? | 04:14 |
cfhowlett | guest-2 | 04:15 |
guest-2uz4bz | yes? | 04:15 |
cfhowlett | yes. reboot into single user mode and do the fix | 04:15 |
testing | I'm the same one from before | 04:39 |
testing | the guest | 04:39 |
testing | My "fix" | 04:39 |
cfhowlett | testing, restate your issue. we don't remember | 04:39 |
testing | I was in a login loop | 04:39 |
cfhowlett | testing, ah yes. remembering now ... | 04:40 |
testing | as I was saying, my "fix" was just to make a new account (this one) and just scrapping the old one | 04:41 |
cfhowlett | testing, nicely done. I take it everything works properly now? | 04:41 |
testing | It seems to, I logged in and out a few times before this and its fine! | 04:42 |
cfhowlett | testing, hats off to you, Sir. | 04:44 |
testing | Thank you good sir. | 04:45 |

damianos | While I'm not new to linux, I am a total newb when it comes to linux audio production. I just installed 12.10 into vmware fusion to play around with it. My sound is all messed up. It's a slow distorted stutter and it's system wide. Any tips on configuring 12.10 in a VMware VM? | 17:36 |
holstein | damianos: i wouldnt expect to use JACK in vm | 17:37 |
holstein | i would just run the live CD | 17:37 |
damianos | That's a bummer. I can't save any work that way | 17:37 |
holstein | damianos: ? | 17:38 |
holstein | damianos: you save it where ever you like | 17:38 |
holstein | damianos: you can literally save it to the same exact place you are saving now, if you like | 17:38 |
holstein | damianos: the "bummer" is, you cant expect JACK to work well on virtual hardware | 17:39 |
holstein | you can elaborate as to what your needs are though, ,since JACK might be overkill for your purposes | 17:39 |
holstein | could be that you could just add the pacakges to the current distro you are using | 17:39 |
damianos | I'm on a mac and use linux VMs for a web development server. I unfortunately don't have a dedicated box for this right now | 17:41 |
holstein | damianos: you can run the live CD on the intel mac | 17:42 |
holstein | damianos: you can run JACK and some of the other software on OSX natively | 17:42 |
holstein | damianos: its not a limiation, nor an issue with JACK.. its more a limitation of the virtual hardware | 17:42 |
damianos | Oh I know | 17:42 |
damianos | VMware has been a pain | 17:43 |
holstein | damianos: i personally dont suggest using jack with internal sound cards, much less fake ones | 17:43 |
damianos | mouse issues too | 17:43 |
damianos | ok then | 17:43 |
holstein | damianos: well, virtualization in general.. though, i usually use virtualbox | 17:43 |
holstein | damianos: but,, the live CD should give you a decent experience to test with | 17:43 |
damianos | ok so generally VM's are a no go when it comes to ALSA and JACK | 17:43 |
damianos | actually, I have an old Pentium D board sitting on a shelf. Maybe I can recycle some parts and put it on that | 17:44 |
holstein | damianos: jack.. just jack | 17:45 |
holstein | damianos: i woud try it.. you might not get great performance, but you could see what is capable | 17:45 |
holstein | OR, reboot the mac holding down the C key and try it there.. saving the work to a USB stick, or the hard drive | 17:46 |
holstein | sibelius is "self contained" though, and doesnt "require" any more midi/audio applications | 17:46 |
holstein | ^^ sorry.. wrong window | 17:47 |
damianos | lol I figured | 17:47 |
damianos | actually low powered is good for me | 17:47 |
holstein | might be for you.. but for content creation, you might want more | 17:48 |
holstein | i use jack on a netbook | 17:48 |
holstein | i have realistic expectations | 17:48 |
holstein | i set the latency high, and i dont edit on it | 17:48 |
damianos | I'm looking to put together an appliance for guitar processing | 17:48 |
holstein | just track... in the field.. since its small | 17:48 |
holstein | damianos: you'll want a nice card | 17:48 |
holstein | damianos: low latency | 17:48 |
damianos | I have an maudio firewire solo kicking around | 17:48 |
holstein | damianos: you wont do that with *any* internal sounc card | 17:48 |
holstein | sound* | 17:49 |
holstein | damianos: i use a firewire devcie | 17:49 |
holstein | device* | 17:49 |
holstein | you'll want to set something up and start tweaking | 17:49 |
holstein | you'll want to hang in #opensourcemusicans | 17:49 |
holstein | having done what you are trying to do.. i dont do it | 17:49 |
damianos | yes but I can still test my Pd patches and just have Pd generate the tones. That would at least eliminate the need for round trip | 17:49 |
holstein | damianos: nah,.. its about the time when you hit the string, and the sound card "proecesses" it, and spits it out | 17:50 |
holstein | doing *no* precessing at all in the box. it still has to pull it in analog, and convert it to digital, and convert it back, and spit it out | 17:51 |
damianos | well here is my plan. Have a pd patch with fiddle to process incoming signal and send the midi through jack to trigger linux sampler | 17:51 |
holstein | damianos: sure | 17:51 |
holstein | damianos: and you *can* | 17:51 |
holstein | damianos: you'll need a nice card, and a fast machine | 17:51 |
damianos | even for just 4 channels? | 17:51 |
holstein | damianos: set it up and test.. with the live CD | 17:52 |
holstein | damianos: i use 8 at a time typically | 17:52 |
damianos | are there maudio firewire drivers around? Last time I checked a couple of years ago there was nothing except for the delta series | 17:53 |
holstein | damianos: i typically read and search, and trust nothing i read or search | 17:54 |
holstein | i plug it in, and test with a live CD | 17:54 |
holstein | i save reciepts | 17:55 |
holstein | damianos: i would literally get it out.. fire up the live CD.. open up JACK and seclect the firewire driver and see | 17:55 |
holstein | also, the chipset.. the agere chipsets the macs usually use are awful | 17:55 |
holstein | i have texas instruments chipsets that i have researched and tested | 17:55 |
holstein | http://www.ffado.org/?q=devicesupport/list | 17:56 |
holstein | a kernel update, or JACK.. or ffado, and the device that worked could break | 17:56 |
holstein | or, become fully functional | 17:56 |
holstein | i typically test with an AVLinux live CD and the ubuntustudio liveCD's... i like to see different alsa/JACK/ffado/kernel versions running on that particual hardware | 17:57 |
damianos | well it says on the site you linked that my firewire device "reported to work" | 17:58 |
holstein | damianos: cool.. thats typically a good sign | 17:59 |
damianos | I think I'll slap that motherboard into a box in here and check | 17:59 |
holstein | that means you can usually make it work | 17:59 |
holstein | damianos: the issue is.. if you plug it in and it doesnt work... who can do anything about it? | 17:59 |
holstein | maudio wont | 17:59 |
damianos | there is also a creative audigy2zs in there in the PCI slot | 17:59 |
holstein | ffado cant | 17:59 |
holstein | we cant either.. so, i usualy just fire it up and try firsthand | 17:59 |
damianos | I don't care about that | 17:59 |
holstein | damianos: the creative is more for playback.. not content creation | 18:00 |
holstein | damianos: i put it onpar with an internal sound card.. but it wont hurt to try it | 18:00 |
damianos | in the long run I'll be using one of theseā¦ http://www.minidsp.com/products/usb-audio-interface/usbstreamer | 18:00 |
holstein | i dont trust usb hardware wither | 18:00 |
holstein | either* | 18:00 |
damianos | What I'd like to use the creative card for is the midi interface and the firewire port | 18:01 |
holstein | some use them for exactly what you are trying though... with pd.. over in #opensourcemusicians | 18:01 |
_raven_ | hi | 18:32 |
_raven_ | do you know about any commandline mastering tool which is able to receive and transmit streams from/to an icecast server? | 18:32 |

holstein | al4nc4ds: i think that would be appropriate in an offtopic channel | 23:40 |
al4nc4ds | damn command. /ame | 23:48 |
holstein | al4nc4ds: ? | 23:48 |
* al4nc4ds help | 23:49 | |
holstein | al4nc4ds: i suppose what im getting at is, please refrain from linking images in the channel.. or irrelevant items... | 23:49 |
al4nc4ds | ok no worries | 23:50 |
