holsteinNavion: i was told that device is plug and play00:05
holsteinNavion: are you using JACK?00:05
holsteinNavion: as in #opensourcemusicians as well00:05
NavionI'll check over there too. The analog parts of it seem to work OK. I bought it specifically for the S/PDIF input.00:07
Navionholstein:00:08
holsteinNavion: RME are typically well supported, if the spidif is what you are looking for00:16
jeenioso... I will try to install ubuntu studio on my new pc... alongside with windows 801:01
jeenioI think I've read enough forums to give it a go, any last minute hints? I've shrunk the C: partition, made a bootable usb disk with the latest 13.04 64bit build...01:02
jeenioI've been away from IT stuff for 5 years, now there's UEFI, GPT, and all sorts of new things :)01:02
Guest96212jeenio, Sounds like you are ready to go.01:02
Guest96212Have something else to do while it is installing01:03
Guest96212It takes a while01:03
jeenioI have my old laptop, where I'm IRC'ing from...01:06
jeenio8 years computer01:06
jeeniolast time I bought one :)01:06
jeenioI bought the new pc 3 weeks ago and I still can't work properly with windows 801:10
jeenioI consider myself as a computer literate (not to say savy...) but this is getting on my nerves01:11
Guest96212I haven't used Windows 8 yet. My computer is dual boot with Windows 701:11
jeenioI was considering the option to downgrade to windows 7, but apparently I would encounter hardware issues... as in "your pc won't work 100% with windows 7. so there."01:12
jeenioI helped some friends in the past to install or upgrade to windows 7, and I really enjoyed the OS. Seems fast and powerful. Windows 8 feels like it was made for kids...01:14
Guest96212Are you using Windows 8 or 8.1?01:15
jeenioI didn't even know there was a 8.1 version01:15
Guest96212Its a free upgrade01:15
jeenioEven though I bought the pc 3 weeks ago, I think it's from last year.01:15
jeenioAh really? I should try then.01:16
jeenioOr maybe I have it already.01:16
Guest96212I only came out a week or two ago01:18
jeenioHum... somehow I'm not getting it to work. Isn't it for the Pro version only?01:19
jeenioWell... I will take care of it later. I'll try to reboot with the usb stick now.01:19
Guest96212Oh my mistake. I looked it up and I guess it is just the public "preview" that came out a couple weeks ago01:20
jeenioyeah I just read that too.01:21
jeeniohum... blank screen01:26
jeenioI booted the usb stick, GRUB came on, I chose, "Install UbuntuStudio" and it went blank.01:27
jeenioBack to the forums...01:28
smartboyhwjeenio, hmm?01:29
smartboyhwWhat did you use to load the Ubuntu Studio image into the USB?01:29
jeeniosome windows program... Rufus I believe. It was one of the first results in google01:30
SonikkuAmericajeenio: You're better off with Universal USB Installer. http://pendrivelinux.com/01:31
smartboyhwjeenio, rather, use UNetbootin01:31
SonikkuAmericasmartboyhw: Unetbootin for Windows corrupted my destination disk. It's kinda up in the air, the Windows version is.01:32
jeeniohttp://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2119734 Well this person had the same problem... even though my gfx card is Nvidia and hers was AMD01:32
smartboyhwSonikkuAmerica, hah, it didn't for me01:32
smartboyhwjeenio, hmm, it is an X problem...01:32
SonikkuAmericasmartboyhw: I had to smash my USB drive, then I used UUI and it worked like a charm. :)\01:33
SonikkuAmerica-\01:33
smartboyhwHmm01:34
SonikkuAmericaWell it was a 4 GB IDE hard drive I USB-hooked, the differences are prob immense01:35
jeeniook, I'll try UUI...01:36
Guest96212jeenio, by any chance did you have anything else saved on the USB besides the "live image"?01:39
jeeniono, it was formatted.01:39
jeeniobtw, it's better to format the USB stick in which file system?01:39
jeenioFAT32? exFAT?01:40
jeenioit doesn't matter?01:40
SonikkuAmericaUUI will let you do FAT32 formatting from its setup screen.01:40
jeeniook. UUI doesn't present UbuntuStudio13.04 from the dropdown menu01:41
jeeniowhich is a pity, cause that's the ISO I've downloaded :)01:41
SonikkuAmericajeenio: Just use "Try another ISO" or whatever it's called01:41
SonikkuAmericaIt will work. I installed Ubuntu GNOME 13.04 that way.01:42
jeeniohum... but it will install MBR instead GPT01:43
jeeniono01:43
jeenioit will install ON THE USB that. Yes. I'm stupid. :)01:43
SonikkuAmericaMBR partitions are fine for Live systems.01:44
jeenioyeah but I want to install, not run from live cd.01:45
jeenioBut it's fine.01:45
SonikkuAmericajeenio: Either way you boot the Live image!01:45
jeeniook :D01:45
jeenioI wonder if the old problem with UbuntuStudio and M-Audio Fast Track Pro is solved...01:56
jeenioI had to install in the old laptop another distro (AV Linux) because of that problem.01:56
jeenioI mean, I know it's an old interface, but I like it :)01:57
SonikkuAmericajeenio: It should be. I checked it using Qjackctl, it runs with no problem.01:57
jeeniowith 4 outputs??01:58
SonikkuAmericajeenio: No, just one. :)01:59
SonikkuAmericajeenio: Particularly MidiSport USB01:59
jeenioah well01:59
jeenioI kinda need the 4 outputs01:59
jeenioAH GREEEEEAT with UUI the USB stick is not even being recognized by the BIOS...02:02
SonikkuAmericajeenio: Did it work before?02:06
jeenioyes02:06
jeeniodamn it02:07
SonikkuAmericaWith UUI, or another program?02:09
jeenioanother program: Rufus02:09
jeenioand then someone told me "you need UUI, the problem you have is the image not something else" :)02:10
jeenioIt's ok, you're trying to help :)02:10
david_jeenio, Did it give an error message?02:52
grayhello guys10:20

=== david is now known as Guest89955
Guest89955The help buttons on a bunch of the default software in UbuntuStudio just give error messages.17:31
Guest89955Should I file bugs for each individual application17:31
Guest89955Or is it actually a UbuntuStudio packaging bug?17:31
Guest89955(13.04)17:32
Guest89955For example Applications Menu > Accessories > Screenshot, then click Help17:32
Guest89955Applications Menu > Settings > Main Menu, then click Help17:33
Guest89955I went ahead and filed a bug for Ubuntu Studio (since I'm not even short what the Screenshot application's real name is18:04
