cfhowlettstudio-user148, what?  you don't need to install ubuntu desktop as it's based on unity and ubuntustudio ... ain't03:42
holsteinstudio-user148: using the nomodeset option, or creating a custom xorg.conf which will usethe vesa driver03:42
holsteinstudio-user148: if you want ubuntu-desktop, i would just start with the vanilla ubuntu.. and use the same tips..03:43

BreakXpressioN_?04:05
holstein"better" is a matter of opinion04:06
holstein!better04:06
ubottuUsually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots.04:06
holsteinwhat do i use? ubuntu studio04:06
holsteini have both osx and ubuntstudio and i prefer ubuntu04:07
cfhowlettholstein, I tripled booted osx, win7 and UbuntuStudio.  Booted Ubuntu 90% of the time04:08

cfhowlettBreakXpressioN_ obviously ... no.  but it works04:12
holsteinBreakXpressioN_: ableton is ableton.. and there is nothing about ubuntu or linux preventing ableton from running on it04:12
holsteinBreakXpressioN_: the well supported default tool we have that works really well is ardour04:12

ben_saysjust wanted to leave a note, i installed 13.04 most all good.  had updates 3-4 days ago, got stuck at the kernel.  lenovo T40017:36
smartboyhwben_says oh?17:37
ben_saysi wish i had the machien with me right now so i could answer further questions... but yeah.17:37
ben_saysnormal updates... came back in the morning stuck half way.17:38
ben_saysif it would be a big help, ill get more info, but i can't for 7-8 hours.17:38
zequenceben_says: It's usually safe to just interrupt the update, and try again. Make sure to do a: sudo apt-get update17:38
zequenceben_says: and then, if something needs fixing: sudo apt-get install -f17:39
zequenceFollowed by: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade17:39
ben_saysok, i ran it a couple times, and it still hung.17:39
ben_saysill try dist-upgrade17:39
ben_saysthanks17:39
zequenceben_says: Someone did report a bug about installing the kernel, so if you are still stuck later on, it would be very helpful if you came back about it17:40
ben_sayssure17:40
smartboyhwI think that is also a problem with -generic17:41
ben_saysthanks really cool work, i've been watching the project for a couple years, i think its really making headway.17:41
zequencethanks. We haven't done much else than cosmetics, and updated software for this release (we're still fixing bugs for 12.04 and 12.10 on the audio side)17:42
zequenceBig plans for 14.04 though, but we'll need more people helping us out17:43
zequence13.04 seems like a good release so far. Let's hope it stays that way (you never know what kind of bugs will show up)17:43
ben_saysyeah, squish 'em daily.17:43
ben_saysok17:43
ben_sayspeace out.17:44
SonikkuAmericazequence: Might I ask what a general idea of those big plans are?19:06
=== qwebirc60054 is now known as qWebIRC^_^mon
zequenceSonikkuAmerica: Well, one is making realtime audio work without any configuration. There's also plans for making a tool to adjust configs that would be interesting to only some people, like the ability to use jack as the default audio server20:43
zequenceWhen I say make realtime audio work without any configuration, i mean on other Debian based. Ubuntu Studio already has this covered, but it would be nice if you didn't need to add custom configs to get this done20:44
SonikkuAmericaOK. I actually am using Lubuntu with the Studio metapackages; it is kind of a pain to configure because it lacks what Studio has prepared (such as the lowlatency kernel)20:45
