solarbirdIs there a utility - and I'm really reaching for it here - to check for CPU retracing? Say, when an Intel processor has made bad predictions and has to flush local cache and retrace?03:21
solarbirdIntel processors pay a heavy penalty for that kind of thing (and also for bad hyperthreading, which does the same thing) and I think I'm hitting it.03:22
solarbirdI _might_ be hitting it. It would explain the behaviour.03:22
holsteinsolarbird: i would try a programming, or ubuntu dev, or main ubuntu channel04:06
holsteinsolarbird: or, general linux for that matter04:06
holsteinnothing is preventing intel from provding such a tool, though, i have not heard about one04:07
solarbirdYeah, I haven't either.04:17

x-sideHey there18:36
x-sideCan anyone point me out to a proper deb for wineasio please? After an hour of googling I am very confused somehow on what version to install.18:38
x-sideI run a 12.04 ubuntu studio18:38
x-sideSorry for a lame one :)18:39
nickgbrowineasio?18:41
x-sideyup18:41
nickgbroyou can just do sudo apt-get install wine?18:41
x-sideI am trying to run reaper18:41
nickgbroin a terminal, would that work?18:42
nickgbroor is wineasio different from wine?18:42
x-sideIs it installed along with wine now? It seemed that I had to install it separately, and most of the links I found on the forums were dead18:42
nickgbrooh its like a plugin then?18:43
nickgbrohmm18:43
x-sideIt is a library that does a bridge between wine and jack basically18:43
x-sidePretty much what ASIO4all does for wind0ze18:43
x-sideI have a nice audio interface, which can run with nearly 2ms latency but in wine i get around 46 with the standard thing18:44
x-sideIf anyone can just explain the process of making it work that would be great18:45
x-sideBecause as I said everything on the internetz I could find was related to the particular cases and usually ended in recompiling kernel kind of stuff :)18:45
x-sideUnfortunately the older I get the more I turn into a musician then a mad computer scientist, so I just stupidly want to get my music production to work18:47
x-sideI know its blasphemy for linux, but I just want things to simply work18:47
x-side:D18:47
nickgbrojust one sec, a bit busy18:47
x-sideSure, any help at any convinient time would be very appreciated18:48
x-sideCheers18:48
nickgbrolol yah for sure, when stuff doesn't work it sucks18:50
nickgbroso forums are turning up dead links?18:50
x-sideyup18:51
x-sideI found a link to wineasio 64bit18:51
x-sideEven managed to install it from a deb through the ubuntu software center18:52
x-sideBut I dont think I run the 64 version of my system18:52
nickgbrohttp://sourceforge.net/projects/wineasio/18:53
nickgbro?18:53
x-sideI am installing reaper with PlayOnLinux now18:53
x-sideIt is supported18:53
x-sideerr it is not a deb unfortunately18:54
x-sideits source18:54
nickgbroPlayonLinux, ive tried it, right now im looking to get fallout3 if thats going to work18:54
nickgbrojust go through the bash scripts to install?18:54
nickgbrolike "cd /Downloads" "sudo make" "sudo make install"?18:55
nickgbroOr you can run the install file with terminal and it should work, if its compiled that way18:55
x-sidehmm18:56
x-sidelet me try18:56
nickgbrohttp://sourceforge.net/projects/wineasio/ try this one maybe?18:56
OvenWerksx-side: dumb question: why not use all the stuff on linux that just works?18:56
nickgbrohold on18:56
nickgbrohttp://www.linuxine.com/story/download-wineasio-deb-packages18:57
OvenWerkslike ardour or qtractor...18:57
nickgbroi love ardour, lol18:57
x-side0vehWerks unfortunately it is not very comfortable to use it.18:57
x-sideAt least for me18:57
OvenWerkswine is 32 bit BTW, even on a 64bit machine... much like most windows applications18:58
OvenWerkswhy are you switching if you have something that works well?18:58
* OvenWerks hasn't used windows except for NT (neutered tech?) at work.18:59
nickgbroim forced to use windows at work... lol, im full on linux for almost a year now.  I remember almost 10 years ago when i first installed ubuntu when i was 15 and didnt know how to use it19:00
nickgbrogood times19:00
OvenWerksI left OS/2 for linux in 94ish19:01
x-sideI like ubuntu. And it runs much better on my machine (which is not the top one at all)19:01
nickgbroisnt mac like built on unix as well or something?19:02
OvenWerksSlackware 0.8 or so?19:02
nickgbroah the early days19:02
OvenWerksa BSD kernel yes19:02
nickgbroright19:02
Unit193Called "darwin" under mac.19:02
x-sideWindows xp is a fine system but it _is_ getting old. Windows 7 is not my cup of tea and win8... Dont even start on it19:02
nickgbroxps end of life is coming up19:03
x-sideExactly19:03
x-sideI would not mind moving to a new enviroement at all19:03
x-sideBut I cant seem to find nice usable daws there19:03
OvenWerksYup my wife got her new computer and I left both windows and linux on it. she said she would use windows, but for some reason her computer always seemed to be running linux.19:04
x-sideAnd from a musicians point of view you don't want to be distracted from creative process by having to do torchdancing all the time19:04
OvenWerksDAWs and usablility are a fun topic. Learning something new when you just want to create can be a pain19:04
x-sideSo if I could get reaper to work under ubuntu (which most of the people on the internet somehow claim to manage _easily_) that would be a killer combination19:05
OvenWerksI would find a DAW on windows painful for the same reason.19:05
x-sideI think sometimes learning a new daw can inspire and boost your creativity19:05
x-sideI've been making music on PC since 9919:05
x-sideAnd tried most of the major DAWS19:06
x-sideMade a lot of money with productions made with cubase and even cakewalk19:06
x-sideBut now all I want is simple stuff19:06
x-sideEven the VSTs are annoying, there are thousands of them and then you end up looking for a sound for an hour and loose the momentum19:07
x-sideSo i am trying to stick to the hardware now19:07
x-sideSo just need a simple but powerful recording tool19:08
OvenWerkslmms and gorgand are closer to what you want but don't seem to record audio very well.19:08
nickgbrolmms is how i make my beats19:08
OvenWerksThat is they are based on the one app does everything concept but are not complete19:08
OvenWerksreaper is supposed to be having a version developed for linux, but I have heard various thoughts on how coomplete that is.19:10
OvenWerksreaper is not concidered by it's devs ready for primetime for sure19:10
x-sideUnfortunately the version for linux is the same windows exe file. They just use it as a marketing catch19:10
x-sideYou still need to fornicate with wine and sacrifice cockroaches19:11
x-sideMaybe I should just use audacity and slowly degrade :D19:12
OvenWerksaudacity is great for _deiting_ audio, but not really for multi-tracking. Ardour is sooo much better.19:13
OvenWerksediting...19:13
* OvenWerks wanders off to eat19:14
x-sideMeh. Beautiful. Just merely running audio configuration in reaper has frozen my machine to the mouse pointer19:22
nickgbroardour for sure, jump in and play around til you're comfortable in there19:24
x-sideWill try19:28
x-side:)19:28
x-sideIt might actually give that inspiration boost19:30
x-sideI will still have  to use reason though19:31
x-sideIt is awesome for a quick work19:32
nickgbroI miss reason :(20:03
nickgbroMade a lot of neat stuff in there20:03
holsteinnothing is preventing reason from being released for ubuntu/linux.. ask them for support20:04
HisaoNakainickgbro: You'll love Linux, then xD20:05
HisaoNakainickgbro: It's a big as heck rack, basically. ;)20:06
nickgbroI love linux for other reasons, I love LMMS, it makes different sounds then..20:08
nickgbrolightworks released a linux version of lightworks... I've never played with the windows version, but given enough time with it, it could eb a very powerful video editing program20:10
HisaoNakaiO_o20:13
guy__Bonsoir à tous.20:24
guy__Je suis sur ubuntu studio depuis peu et je galère un max pour installer correctement ma intuos 520:26
guy__Quelqu'un pourrait-il m'aider?20:26

HisaoNakaiMrElg: Do try #nm as well.20:38
