shai_haludanyone know if it is possible to record your own samples to use as presets in lmms?00:27
h4x0riz3di converted a windows .fon to .bdf and then to .pcf but i can't figure out how to install it03:35
h4x0riz3di mean.. i do "fc-cache -f -v" and it still doesn't get listed, do i have to reboot or something?03:36
fr4j4hopla?03:59
fr4j4./join adsfwer04:00
shai_haludholstein: isn't the dev channel #ubuntu-studio-dev?04:25
shai_haludi'm on a different install, having problems getting online in ubuntu studio right now04:26
h4x0riz3dmaybe without that dash04:26
shai_haludLen-nb: hey, i had problems with raring again, and also, my ubuntu-studio will not go online now. I am booted into Mint at the moment04:28
shai_haludwth04:28
Len-nbOk04:28
shai_haludhad fstab-decode i/o error04:29
Len-nbbefore you left you were saying the file size was 1.9M04:29
Len-nb??04:29
shai_haludthat is a .part file04:29
Len-nbour ISOs are 2.3 Gig04:29
shai_haludi repaet. it was a part file04:30
Len-nbSo the ISO you used was bigger then OK04:30
shai_haludthe after running zsync, 2 copies of the iso were in the dir. both identical in size04:30
shai_haludone had extension.old04:30
Len-nbMakes sense04:30
Len-nbyup04:31
h4x0riz3d.part smells like firefox ;]04:31
shai_haludso anyway, i had same issues as before, but different inode this time04:31
Len-nbThis is with a DVD or USB stick?04:31
shai_haludand something changed my wifi card configuration04:31
shai_haludusb04:32
shai_haludi cannot initiate wifi in ubuntu studio 12.10 now04:32
Len-nbUSB stick is 4gig?04:32
shai_halud1604:32
Len-nbOK04:32
Len-nbvfat?04:32
shai_haludfat3204:32
shai_haludsame as i always use04:32
shai_haludi have never had this issue04:33
Len-nbNo I haven't either.04:33
shai_haludwhat exactly is the dev channel id?04:33
Len-nb#ubuntustudio-devel04:33
shai_haludi have tried #ubuntu-studio-dev    #ubuntustudio-dev04:33
shai_haludand that04:33
shai_haludno one was in them04:33
shai_haludmy computer is going whacky04:34
Len-nbHave you made sure you wer set to freenode... must be now...04:34
shai_haludof course04:34
Len-nbyou are here.04:34
Len-nbas I recall on first startup of xchat freenode is not selected04:35
shai_haludit is on my other machine04:35
shai_haludbut no, it's... some other one in mint04:35
Len-nbI will download the daily iso here. I can only use the 32 bit though04:36
shai_haludanyway, I had some functionality of the system this time, but kept getting i/o errors for everything04:36
Len-nbI almost feel like saying try another stick just to be sure04:37
shai_haludand wifi would not initiate.04:37
Len-nbbut the base FS is supposed to deal with bad spots.04:37
Len-nbI am using wifi right now.04:38
shai_haludi believe something has happened on my other install and changed the mac address  of the connection somehow04:38
Len-nbBack in a minute04:38
shai_haludk04:38
shai_haludi'm in devel channel now04:38

mc5hello. Does anyone work with JACK and/or Ardour in here?22:24
zequencemc5: Sure. There are channels for both jack and ardour too #jack #ardour22:25
mc5Yeah. I was sent here from the #ardour room22:26
mc5err. channel22:26
zequenceReally?22:26
mc5yeah22:26
mc5Apparently not many of them work with Ubuntu22:26
zequenceI guess they're saying Ubuntu does funny things to ardour22:26
zequenceI'm pretty sure that whatever question you have has little to do with the platform you are on22:27
zequenceWhat kind of problems are you having?22:27
mc5mostly problems with JACK for right now22:27
mc5I may have some future problems with the interface I'm running as well, a Line 6 UX122:27
zequenceWhat kind?22:27
mc5Starting problems22:27
zequencejack crashes sometimes when you try to stop it22:27
zequenceIt's frozen in the background. Could that be it?22:28
zequenceKill it with: killall -9 jackdbus22:28
mc5pastebin.com/CCwmxntu22:28
zequenceThat is, if you're using jack with qjackctl, and default settings22:28
mc5I'm using Qjackctl22:28
zequenceTry killing jackdbus: killall -9 jackdbus22:29
mc5What I just pasted is what popped up when I just opened it22:29
zequenceThen start jack again22:29
mc5I got this from Terminal: "jackdbus should be auto-executed by D-Bus message bus daemon. If you want to run it manually anyway, specify "auto" as only parameter"22:30
zequencemc5: Don't start jackdbus from the terminal, just kill it there22:30
zequenceThen use qjackctl to start it22:30
mc5I'm trying to kill it with that command and nothing22:31
mc5just that message22:31
zequenceYou're doing something wrong22:31
zequencekillall -9 jackdbus22:31
mc5that did nothing22:32
zequenceThen it worked22:32
zequenceOtherwise it would say, no such process22:32
mc5ok22:32
zequenceNow, try starting jackw with qjackctl22:32
zequencejack*22:32
mc5"D-BUS: JACK server could not be started.  Sorry"22:33
mc5"Could not connect to JACK server as client. - Overall operation failed. - Unable to connect to server. Please check the messages window for more info."22:33
zequencemc5: Any windows open that uses audio? Like w webbrowser22:34
zequencemc5: Ever get this error when booted into a fresh session, and trying nothing else but starting jack with qjackctl?22:34
mc5By open, do you mean on the Launcher?22:35
mc5Skype is the only window running that would utilize  audio22:36
zequenceOk, that could be a problem22:36
zequenceClose everything down22:36
zequenceWould even save some trouble if you just rebooted22:36
zequenceAlso, do you have multiple audio devices?22:37
mc5just the Interface and the Speakers22:37
zequenceI mean, do you have more than one audio card?22:38
zequenceI should really write a script and let users run it to get some info :)22:39
mc5not that I'm aware of22:40
zequenceYou mentioned a Line6 device22:41
zequenceWhat do you get from: cat /proc/asound/cards22:41
mc5 0 [PODStudioUX1   ]: line6usb - POD Studio UX1                       Line6 POD Studio UX1 at USB 3-2:1.0  1 [SB             ]: HDA-Intel - HDA ATI SB                       HDA ATI SB at 0x92300000 irq 16  2 [HDMI           ]: HDA-Intel - HDA ATI HDMI                       HDA ATI HDMI at 0x92210000 irq 1922:42
mc5er22:42
mc5http://pastebin.com/RUzArjBa22:43
zequenceOk, so you have three audio devices22:43
zequenceThe line6, your onboard, plus the hdmi out22:44
zequencemc5: Have you selected a device in qjackctl?22:44
zequence!proaudio22:44
ubottuFor information on professional audio tools in Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/ProAudioIntro22:44
zequenceThat's a page I wrote about the audio systems on Ubuntu Studio22:44
mc5Input and Output are recognized as Line 6 UX122:45
zequencemc5: Have you ever got that device working with jack?22:46
mc5I mean, it recognizes it but I haven't been able to really start JACK so I'm not sure22:47
mc5Ardour recognizes it as well22:47
zequenceArdour doesn't recognize audio devices itself. It uses one of the audio systems it supports. ALSA or jack22:48
zequencejack uses ALSA drivers22:48
zequenceSo, they're really the same deal in that regard22:48
zequencemc5: Have you tried starting jack with the HDA ATI SB?22:49
zequenceBefore you try, always kill jackdbus, just in case: killall -9 jackdbus22:50
zequenceI have one of those, and I can't get it to work (HDA ATI SB)22:50
mc5try to start jack with HDA ATI SB and then kill?22:50
zequenceNo, first kill, so we don't have a frozen jack in the background, then start jack with the HDA ATI SB22:51
zequenceIt would be nice to know if you can start jack at all22:51
mc5ok just tried switching the Input & Output to HDA ATI SB and it didn't start22:52
zequencemc5: Don't set input and output separately22:53
zequencemc5: set them to default, and use "interface" instead22:53
zequencemc5: Have you changed any other settings?22:54
mc5came up with the same problems22:54
mc5if you'd like me to copy and paste the messages, I can22:54
zequencemc5: Try this in a terminal..22:56
zequencepasuspender -- jackd -d alsa -d hw:122:56
zequenceOr wait22:56
zequenceFirst do: killall -9 jackdbus22:57
zequenceThen that command22:57
zequencepasuspender -- jackd -d alsa -d hw:122:57
zequencemc5: A reboot?23:01
mc5no. Flash crashed and I didn't realize it23:02
mc5did you get any of my last messages?23:02
zequenceno23:02
zequenceYou should close down any flash videos23:02
zequenceAnything that uses audio23:02
mc5ok. done23:02
zequenceSo, first, just so we can be sure23:03
zequencekillall -9 jackdbus23:03
zequenceThen we try jack from the terminal:23:03
zequencepasuspender -- jackd -d alsa -d hw:123:03
mc5well. I tried starting with HDA ATI SB in the Input and Outputs23:03
mc5didn't work23:03
zequenceThis is not the same thing23:03
mc5ok23:03
zequenceI don't want to waste anymore time than you23:04
zequenceThe quicker you are, the better23:04
mc5ok. I got some errors23:05
zequenceOk, I'll let you know what you've been doing, so you can try stuff yourself23:05
zequenceLet's you know what cards you have: cat /proc/asound/cards23:05
zequenceThey aren't always in the same order after rebooting23:06
mc5 I haven't rebooted23:06
zequenceDidn't say you did23:06
zequenceSuspending Pulseaudio can be smart to try, since it sometimes doesn't let go of the audio device otherwise23:06
zequencepulseaudio == desktop audio23:07
zequenceIf pulseaudio is using a different card than jack, than that would be no problem anyway23:07
mc5I just tried posting this: cat /proc/asound/cards23:07
mc5in the Terminal and now I cannot type anything else23:07
zequenceOk, I'm not getting through here.23:08
zequenceWhat I would do if I were you is reboot23:08
zequenceThen only use qjackctl23:08
zequencetry starting some devices23:08
zequenceUse the command to kill jackdbus in between23:09
zequencekillall -9 jackdbus23:09
zequenceinstead of qjackctl, you can also use this command:23:10
zequencepasuspender -- jackd -d alsa -d hw:123:10
zequenceReplace the "1" with whatever card you want to start23:10
zequenceThe number you get from reading the output from: cat /proc/asound/cards23:10
zequenceThat's it23:10
studio-user545# in spanish please23:14
mc5alright. I'll copy your text right here, reboot,  and go from there.23:14
studio-user545in spanish please23:14
zequencemc5: Hope it works out23:15
zequencemc5: btw23:15
zequencemc5: one part of the command I showed you: pasuspender -- jackd -d alsa -d hw:123:15
zequenceis for suspending pulseaudio23:15
zequenceand that is: pasuspender ..23:15
zequencepasuspender --23:16
zequenceThe actual command to start jack is: jackd -d alsa -d hw:<n>23:16
zequencewhere <n> is your audio device number23:16
zequenceThis is not jackdbus23:16
zequenceAnyway, good luck23:16
mc5just tried using 'pasuspender -- jackd -d alsa -d hw:1' and replaced the 2 to see what would happen with the LIne 6 and I got these messages23:29
mc5http://pastebin.com/SGzqbeC223:29
zequencemc5: Seems like you're not on Ubuntu Studio23:29
zequenceyou don't have realtime privilege23:30
zequenceyou need to add yourself to audio group23:30
mc5ah23:30
mc5right23:30
mc5ok. Can you tell me how to do that?23:30
zequencesudo usermod -a -G audio $USER23:30
zequenceThat will add your name next to the audio group in the file /etc/group23:30
zequenceYou'll need to logout and login again for the change to happen23:30
zequenceThough, starting jack should work even without rt privilege23:31
mc5hmm23:31
mc5"sudo usermod -a -G audio $USER"23:35
mc5what do I do after that?23:35
mc5log out and then log back in?23:35
zequenceYeah23:35
mc5ok23:36
mc5alright. so where do I go from here?23:38
mc5ok JACK is actually starting now23:39
mc5zequence: so Jack starts now23:41
mc5I had it going for 20 seconds and then stopped it23:41
zequencemc5: using your usb device?23:41
mc5it's actually set on HDI ATI SB23:42
zequenceWell, good to know you can get jack running23:42
zequenceTry the same command with the usb device23:42
mc5it's starting with Line 6 UX123:44
mc5just tried to start Ardour and it's giving me the same problems23:45
zequenceIf you get jack starting with the usb device, it works23:46
zequenceWhat you do is you start jack, keep jack running, then start ardour23:46
zequencemc5: If you got the usb device running, you should be able to get it running with qjackctl as well23:47
zequenceqjackctl, using default settings, will start jackdbus, not jackd23:47
zequencejackdbus is the one that crashes sometimes when you try to stop it23:47
mc5I'm getting problems now23:47
mc5out of nowhere23:47
zequenceWell, you have the tools to sort this out now, I think23:48
zequenceThe usual workflow is, you start jack first, then whatever jack application you want to use, such as ardour23:48
mc5actually I don't have the tools23:49
mc5It was working fine and then I stopped JACK, tried to run Ardour and back to the same problems.23:50
zequencemc5: I told you. Don't stop jack23:50
zequencestart jack. Then start ardour23:50
zequenceYou do have the tools. you just need to make sense of it23:51
zequenceRead this page also23:52
zequence!proaudio23:52
ubottuFor information on professional audio tools in Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/ProAudioIntro23:52
mc5It's not starting now23:52
zequenceShould clear some things up23:52
zequenceIf jack crashed, and is frozen, kill it23:52
mc5it hasn't done either23:52
zequenceeither it's jackd, or jackdbus23:52
zequenceWell, you'll sort it out23:53
zequenceTime to sleep for me23:53
mc5I'm fairly certain that I won't but ok23:53
mc5thanks23:53
