[01:08] What controls the sound in US? [01:08] for some reason with my volume at 100% i am getting nothing. [01:17] packetfrog: ubuntustudio *is* ubuntu.. so [01:17] !sound [01:17] If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. [01:17] packetfrog: i usually take it slow, and try the obvious.. the mute buttons.. etc [01:21] I have done that [01:21] and us is not u [01:21] ubuntu generally has gnome and its apps [01:21] nah [01:21] this is xfce so it does not use some of the same things [01:21] ubuntustduio *is* ubuntu [01:21] gnome and xfce are GTK.. we are GTK [01:21] Ok well commands that use ubuntu/gnome dont work. [01:21] same repos as ubuntu [01:22] pluse audio [01:22] packetfrog: they do [01:22] some times. [01:22] packetfrog: what are you trying? and what doesnt work? what is the error? [01:26] I turn my volume up to 100% and still get no sound. :) [01:27] I understand ubuntustudio is just a metapackage/s on top of ubuntu but some of the gnome apps and what not are not installed by default. [01:27] Was all I was saying. [01:27] Or thinking [01:28] packetfrog: cool [01:28] and I am not saying or arguing that I am right. just from my weeks worth of tinkering ubuntu forum commands sometimes are not working as the packages are not on here. [01:28] packetfrog: whast most relevant to our converstation is, pulse is the same.. alsa too [01:28] oic. [01:28] packetfrog: what commands? [01:28] alsamixer? [01:28] have you installed pavucontrol? [01:29] gnome-screensaver is an example. I think it is installed by default on ubuntu but not on here. [01:29] No [01:30] It is installed though [01:30] just checked [01:30] packetfrog: i wouldnt "think"i would test [01:30] and its not installed [01:30] we are not using gnome2 [01:31] we are using mostly xubuntu as the default.. so, the xfce screensaver is what we areusing [01:31] if you want the one from gnome or unity, or main ubuntu.. or any of the other official ubuntu's, we all share the same repos [01:32] I was not saying I wanted it. [01:32] I was trying to help someone else figure out how to lock there screen and googled it [01:32] the command given on a similar question in ubuntu forums was with gnome-screensaver so i tried it and found out i dont have that package [01:32] I dont need it or want it. was just trying to test it before i told someone and noticed i dont have it .... [01:32] :P [01:34] we use the xfce locker [01:34] I realize this. :) [01:34] packetfrog: if you want, you can pretty much use the xubuntu help suggestions [01:34] my point was that not all things are the same as ubuntu [01:34] packetfrog: ubuntu is not using gnome anymore [01:34] packetfrog: and we can stop with this. my only point is.. the core for audio, out of the box, is the same [01:34] At least not gnome-shell. [01:35] packetfrog: we use JACK, but its not running out of the box [01:35] afk [01:35] packetfrog: anything helpful you see for troubleshooting your audio issue for ubuntu, or xubuntu will apply to ubuntustudio [01:47] Thank you. :) I was not aware this is basically xubuntu [01:48] well, its not.. they are *all* ubuntu [01:48] but, for support purposes, you can use xubuntu help avenues, as suggested in the /topic [06:21] clean install of UbuntuStudio 12.04.2 ... I feel so squeaky clean! [07:26] hi [07:28] no one? [07:35] i wanna write malayalam(language) .., i hav installd ibus [07:35] wat shld i do next [09:14] Hello folks and greetings. Does UbuntuStudio support Native Instruments? I have for Windows Audio Kontrol but read in a few places that Linux is supporting it. I purchased the Windows version and I found that there is a Ubuntu version of Guitar Rig so it seems but it is a vacuum tube program. Any comments? [09:16] IBM_CLONE, answer: it depends ... [09:17] It is called GuitarIX [09:18] I was reading about latency issues. I am installing for the first time right now with VBOX Oracle and was wondering about real time throughput. [09:20] I know I will experiment with it and I like the speed in which it works on my laptop, however, I haven't used any programs but just clicked on some of them. [09:21] IBM_CLONE, VBOX obviously is slower than native install ... but put in guest additions and play around [09:22] I do know that GuitarIX is an interesting program as I being a lead guitarist and a Radio Broadcast Engineer. It is a vacuum program and am very interested in the hard work that the programmers put into the different types of tubes and selection. [09:22] IBM_CLONE, google up linux audio. I think you'll find plenty to occupy your mind [09:23] I have plenty to occupy my mind already, :) Home repair and Computer Science is time occupational. :) [09:24] I really admire the work that I have read on the kernel and programs on the Studio install. [09:25] IBM_CLONE, it has come quite a ways ... [09:26] I have read quite a bit about the progress. I was impressed that it is solely designed for professionals. [09:27] ??? I think I'd have to state that there is PLENTY of content and potential for new users and amateurs [09:28] Most of the junk you see with Windows OS is just plain nonsense unless you spend a considerable amount of money for a serious program and then there are financial constraints as well as closed source software. [09:29] The other issue is that you have to purchase the software before trying it unless you use bit-torrents and then purchase it because it finally does what it says. [09:31] As I speak I am installing it for the second time but on my desktop. [09:32] 6 hours ago I installed it for the first time and had to install it on my desktop but in Virtual Box. I hope VBOX is not an issue. [09:34] I bought for $3.00 U.S. Dollars a 1 TeraByte hard drive at a thrift store and found that it was full of almost 600 moves or more and the drive was sold because whoever tried to use the disk did not consider that it was formatted with Linux instead of Windows and was sold for $3.00 I downloaded UbuntuStudio initially to play the vids. [09:35] Then I found out lots of goodies with UbuntuStudio. [09:35] nice thrift store treasure [09:36] Sure was. :) I went back to the woman and gave her an xtra $5.00 and told her it was worth more. She gave me a kiss on the cheek and said: "Thanks for your honesty." [09:36] nice one [09:37] You can find lots of goodies not only at the Goodwill Thrift Store but also the Salvation Army Store. [09:38] I bought a CISCO Router at Goodwill for $5.00 [09:38] Rack mount may I say. hehe [09:40] The Goodwill store that I go to has BINS and BINS of CD and DVD disk just one on top of another selling for $1.00 each. [09:43] I am glad there is a movement with Linux to support video, audio and graphix all in one kernel along with other nice features. [09:44] The install takes a long time. I suppose it is because of the installation downloads and updates. [09:44] IBM_CLONE, 12.4.2??? [09:45] I think so. I went to the official website and used a bit-torrent to download it. [09:46] IBM_CLONE, good [09:46] Installation just completed and now re-booting. [09:47] It is Ubuntu 12.04 [09:48] so NOT studio? [09:48] It is studio but on the splash screen it states Ubuntu 12.04 [09:48] What does the splash screen look like ... [09:49] It is the shut down or HALT screen [OK] [09:49] US splash screen is black with white lettering "ubuntu studio linux for creative humans" [09:51] and a white circle throbber [09:51] Yes. I had to hit enter and am waiting. [09:51] Black screen. [09:56] Just logged in and waiting for it to do it's thing. Same thing happened on the laptop. [09:57] It continued to ask for updates for about 20 minutes. Laptop works OK and this Desktop is waiting for the final bootup screen. [09:58] It says software updates are available and new drivers as well. [09:58] I clicked install all updates. [10:03] It looks much better on a 39 inch Wide Screen HDTV. [10:06] With my laptop the fonts looked too small. I searched Google for how to increase the UbuntuStudio default fonts and decided that logically the fonts were based upon the Virtual BOX settings and changed VBOX settings and voila, there was no need to change default OS fonts. [10:09] Video Production. Blender. That software was for Ray Tracing and imaging. Has it changed to actual video? [10:21] I'm not sure I am going to like UbuntuStudio with VBOX. Movies are choppy and too much latency as of my first impression. [10:22] I am trying Audacity to play a movie and it takes a while for the video to cache load. I can hardly wait to see how slow it runs. hehe [10:28] zequence, I'm now in -rt kernel 3.6.11-rt30 [10:29] I don't see VLC media player. I just sudo apt-get the dependencies and that kind of stuff. [10:44] Hey folks. Thanks for the encouragement. I will drop in again to let you know what happens with my new experience with UbuntuStudio. ThanksCFhowlett. :) I bid you a fine day. Thanks for your help. [12:22] hi === Andy_ is now known as Guest12605
