Whiskey`Wonka[08:44:35] <smartboyhw> Whiskey`Wonka: Can you peep in to #ubuntustudio and ask zequence?15:44
smartboyhwYeah my fault15:45
Whiskey`Wonkazequence: having a virtualbox issue and was told to come here15:45
Whiskey`Wonkalol15:45
smartboyhwWith -lowlatency15:45
zequenceok15:45
Whiskey`Wonkaright -lowlatency15:46
zequenceSo, what was the issue?15:46
Whiskey`Wonkausing muon to remove vbox and all its packages then reisntall, no kernel modules are made, even whenthe dkms package says installed15:47
Whiskey`Wonkadoing so via apt-get did fix that and make the packages15:47
zequenceWhiskey`Wonka: I don't have any experience with muon, but the way it works should be no different between -generic and -lowlatency. Each have their own headers avilable15:48
zequenceAnd both kernels are more or less the same kernel (the diff is very small)15:49
zequenceI always install with apt myself, and haven't experienced any problems15:49
smartboyhwzequence: His CPU was overheating with -generic15:49
zequenceThere was a bug with headers at some point though15:49
zequenceWhiskey`Wonka: Which release is this, and which kernel version?15:49
Whiskey`Wonkazequence: yea -low my cpu fan works, with -gen it does not15:50
Whiskey`Wonka3.8.0-19-lowlatency on rearing15:50
zequenceIt's very strange that -generic would cause more problems than -lowlatency.15:51
zequenceNo problems with headers with that version though, so that should be fine15:51
Whiskey`Wonkaits a ACPI issue causing my fan to not work15:52
zequenceThing is, -lowlatency is a copy of -generic, and has almost the exact same code15:52
Whiskey`Wonkai would gladly give any information that i can to help solve that15:52
zequenceAnd, when it comes to ACPI, I really doubt there are any differences at all15:52
zequenceIt's a copy of -generic, but has a couple of configs altered, so of course, the resulting binary is not a 100% match, but the diff is in things like PREEMPT and HZ15:53
Whiskey`Wonkawell i dunno, a clean cold boot with -low will let the cpu fan work and spin up, with -gen it doesnt ever come above the idle speed15:55
zequenceWhiskey`Wonka: Did you monitor temprature?15:55
zequence-lowlatency should be harder on the CPU (not much, but still), and that might result in higher fan speeds15:55
Whiskey`Wonkai did but no need, fire up google earth or such and you cna feel it over heating15:56
DarkEraanyone who has a korg microkey 25 keyboard and knows if it works on linux?16:03
Whiskey`Wonkazequence: btw its not jsut 'oh thats hot' its 'omg its burning me' and goes into thermal shutdown16:11
zequenceWhiskey`Wonka: I would make a bug report then. Do you have a launchpad account?16:14
Whiskey`Wonkai do not16:14
kaitest16:14
zequenceWhiskey`Wonka: Here, create one https://launchpad.net/16:14
Whiskey`Wonkatest failed16:14
kaicrap.16:14
Whiskey`Wonkazequence: okies16:14
Whiskey`Wonkaabort, retry?16:15
zequenceWhiskey`Wonka: Then, boot into the generic kernel, and from the command line do: ubuntu-bug linux16:15
zequenceIt's pretty straight forward reporting bugs once you have a launchpad account16:16
Whiskey`Wonkaah buggers thats going to be a pain16:16
zequenceOnly takes a couple of minutes, so I hope your computer will survive that :)16:16
Whiskey`Wonkachanging kernels isnt going to be easy16:16
kaiwanted to check... ub.studio comes with puredata vanilla, not extended, correct?16:18
zequencekai: Yes, -extended is not packaged yet in Debian (which is where all the multimedia packages come from)16:20
zequencekai: I will actually be packagin pd-extended for Degian in the not too far future, so it will be avilable hopefully from 13.10 and forwards16:20
zequencekai: You can get pd-extended from a PPA, ppa:eighthave/pd-extended16:21
kaiz: ok thanks, there are some instructions on pd.info, those should work yes?16:21
zequenceeighthave == the guy who created pd-extended16:21
zequenceI really recommend adding the PPA16:21
kaiok i will try it16:21
zequenceTo do that: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:eighthave/pd-extended16:22
zequenceThat will install a file in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*16:22
kaisweet thanks16:22
zequencekai: Then, to install pd-extended, just do: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install pd-extended16:23
whitesmoking99yes17:46
whitesmoking99w ubuntu!!!17:46
whitesmoking99such windows17:46
whitesmoking99ubuntu is better17:46
whitesmoking99yesssssssss!17:46
DarkEraok, that one was very enthusiastic about buntu... lol17:49
holstein!better18:10
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.18:10
holsteinthats what i would have linked ;)18:10
zequenceI have a friend who whenever he gets excited about something, like a band, he alwyas says "This is the best band in the world!"18:11
zequenceAnd that happens about once a week or so18:11

thecodeischaosdo tile based window managers work with ubuntu studio well?20:26
thecodeischaosor if a window manager is stable.. it should work on any linux distro in the same manner20:26
zequencethecodeischaos: Ubuntu Studio is not DE based. It's more really a set of meta packages, which depend on a selected list of packages that we like to be installed by default20:28
zequenceAdded to that, a couple of configuration changes to improve performance20:28
thecodeischaoswhat is de?20:28
zequenceuser realtime privilege, and swappniess20:28
zequenceDesktop Environmant20:28
zequenceEnvironment*20:29
thecodeischaosso are you saying i cant instal other window managers on it?20:29
zequenceYes, and this is true on any Ubuntu flavor20:29
thecodeischaosbut there are tutorials for changing WM on ubuntu20:30
zequencethecodeischaos: What is it that you would like to install, exactly?20:30
thecodeischaosdwm looked pretty good. i wanted to try it20:30
thecodeischaosor another one that supports tile based windows20:31
zequencesudo apt-get install dwm20:31
thecodeischaosok ill try it20:32
thecodeischaosill try it on my mini pc. first i need to install the OS on there20:34
wachinHi22:28
wachinHave a question22:28
wachinrepositories could UbuntuStudio the DrumBurp program, which is very good for Tabs Drum http://whatang.org22:30
zequencewachin: It needs to be packaged for Debian (it is where most Ubuntu Studio applications are packaged initially)22:40
zequencewachin: I'll have a look. Maybe I can package it22:41
wachinI will tried of package it, but not can22:43
wachinI use Debreate but not working22:43
wachinI wish there was a program to devianizate that be like Install Creator Free22:44
zequencewachin: It requires some studying. Not only to create the package, but also how to write changelogs, licensing and most importantly, the debian/rules file for building instructions, etc22:44
wachinOk22:45
wachinThanks22:45
wachinThe program DrumBurp working fine on Windows, but not on UbuntuStudio 12.0422:48
wachinI tried in VirtualBox with Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and working fine22:48
wachinI know that this program need , python2.6 or 2.7, python-pygame, phyton-qt4 to working from source code, yes, working fine frome source code22:50
wachinIn UbuntuStudio 12.04 the only way to make working is launch the source code from command line22:52
wachinpython drumburp.py22:52
wachinotherwise not work22:52
zequencewachin: I emailed the developer, and told him I was willing to package it22:53
zequenceSo, if no one else has done it, should be avilable at around 13.1022:53
wachinOh, well22:54
wachinGod Bye23:14
wachinThanks23:14
