[04:12] <wilee-nilee> holstein, I have my pm off but wanted to share this soundstage with you and the channel. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qurVdB-HwUU
[08:42] <guest-ZTz4F2> Hello everyone!)  I face the problem of not being able to change my password for my user account. I tried to change the password with the following commands: sudo passswd -1 root  .....then: sudo passwd user   ---> The answer I got from the pc was Failure changing the authentification token.  --> Sometimes I got told that the passwd could not be changed.  Yesterday I tried a command somebody showed me in this chat to mount t
[08:42] <guest-ZTz4F2> he system for rw ( read and write). The command was mount -o rw, remount .....but unfortunably it was not recognized by the system. ( I' am working with ubuntu studio.) If somebody can help me out it would make me happy :)
[08:44] <cub> guest-ZTz4F2, your user won't be "root"
[08:46] <cub> guest-ZTz4F2, if you instead go to the menu -> System -> Users and Groups you can see you user there and change the password
[08:49] <wilee-nilee> guest-ZTz4F2, You forgot your password right?
[08:50] <guest-ZTz4F2> precisely.
[08:50] <wilee-nilee> guest-ZTz4F2, You followed that psychocats link?
[08:51] <guest-ZTz4F2> yes I did yesterday
[08:52] <guest-ZTz4F2> but the command did not ( mount -o rw, remount /  )
[08:52] <wilee-nilee> isn't Ubuntu tudio just ubuntu with another X the studio de?
[08:52] <guest-ZTz4F2> work...
[08:52] <guest-ZTz4F2> the system said that there was no such command as remount
[08:54] <guest-ZTz4F2> wired.
[08:55] <cub> wilee-nilee, sort of. It's another DE, the low-latency kernel and some other configs done. But essentially it's Ubuntu.
[08:56] <wilee-nilee> guest-ZTz4F2, I'm not sure if the link does not work.
[08:56] <wilee-nilee> anyway time to crash
[08:56] <guest-ZTz4F2> I tried to download missing aps but of course I couldn't install them because I do not have the passwd....
[08:57] <guest-ZTz4F2> in the menu system -> Users,... I cannot change the passwd because I am asked to type in the passwd for that...
[09:00] <guest-ZTz4F2> trappedI am trapped :)
[10:21] <Guest60599> ok Iam just learning... I need to connect me as a client for qjack..
[10:22] <Guest60599> I have a usb make and want to use it but the system doesn t find it
[10:23] <Guest60599> usb mike
[10:23] <cfhowlett> Guest60599, try a different usb port ...
[10:23] <Guest60599> have done that.. doesent find it
[10:24] <cfhowlett> Guest60599, not all mics are plug n play.  You might have to pick up an interface ...
[10:24] <Guest60599> ok
[10:25] <cfhowlett> Guest60599, is this for recording music or what?
[10:26] <Guest60599> yes I am making music and noise :)
[10:27] <Guest60599> using my voice and tracks
[10:27] <cfhowlett> Guest60599, if you're at all serious, be aware that usb mics generally tend to be of lower grade than XLR mics.  don't know your budget, but I bought a podcasting kit from presonus.  The One Box had mic, interface and headphones for less than $200.  see amazon
[10:28] <Guest60599> ok
[10:28] <cfhowlett> worked with out of the box with UbuntuStudio too!
[10:29] <Guest60599> ok
[10:30] <Guest60599> it worked at first and then it stop working I must have done something
[10:31] <cfhowlett> try recording without jack ...
[10:31] <Guest60599> ok
[10:31] <Guest60599> Iĺl try
[10:32] <Guest60599> thanks Iĺl see thanks for ansearing me ;)
[10:33] <cfhowlett> Guest60599, best of luck!
[16:16] <florianf_> Hello. I just installed Ubuntu studio 13.04 and was wondering if there was a special ubuntu studio repo. There are only the standard raring repos in my sources.list. Thanks
[16:16] <holstein> no.. the same sources as main ubuntu.. ubuntustudio *is* ubuntu
[16:16] <florianf_> ok, so packages such as alsa-firmware are best sought in medibuntu?
[16:17] <holstein> florianf_: "best" will be a matter of opinion, but you will use the same sources as main ubuntu
[16:18] <florianf_> ok, ill try it this way then. thank you
[16:39] <Navion> Does anyone know of a a cheap (under $150 US) 1U appliance that can run Ubuntu Studio? Would be cool if it could run from a 12V power supply.
[16:40] <holstein> Navion: ubuntustudio is ubuntu.. so, anything that will run ubuntu..
[16:41] <holstein> Navion: i would check system76
[16:41] <OvenWerks> Navion: not with case for that price.
[16:41] <holstein> yeah.. i would just go with a machine.. for that price
[16:42] <holstein> anything rackmount will be specific and quite a bit more
[16:42] <OvenWerks> There is an intel MB with the atom on it that runs on 12v. I have seen it for less than $100
[16:42] <Navion> OvenWerks: I guess the case is secondary since it would have to have a kind of specialized panel UI.
[16:42] <Navion> OvenWerks: Know a PN for that MB?
[16:42] <OvenWerks> Ya, the MB doesn't need a fan.
[16:45] <OvenWerks> d2800mt
[16:46] <OvenWerks> add ram to the MB price, but the CPU comes with it
[16:47] <OvenWerks> I have the d2500cc, but that needs an xt PS
[16:48] <OvenWerks> Find a 1ui rack someone is throwing out :)
[16:49] <OvenWerks> find a netbook someone is throwing out for the PS
[16:50] <OvenWerks> In a 1ui, you may want a fan anyway. The MB does have (mine does anyway) a fan connector.
[16:51] <OvenWerks> make sure it has access to lots of air.
[16:57] <florianf_> hello again. i'm encountering sth curious with JACK and Ardour -  when playing music through pulseaudio in ardour it seems  to be louder than with the jack output option. my sound card in pulse audio is off, with the jack sink the only way for all pulse audio applications. audio volume is both in pulse audio mixer as well as in ardour at 100%, but pulse audio still seems way louder than directly using jack.
[16:57] <florianf_> but it shouldnt matter, should it, as everything lands in jack anyway, either with a detour over pulse audio or directly.
[16:58] <holstein> well, one is coming from pulse
[16:58] <florianf_> but how can pulseaudio amplify the signal when it is at 0,00db 100% ?
[17:01] <florianf_> ah, got it just after asking you. when switching the outputs in ardour, it seems that switching to pulse audio maxes the ardour volume at 100%, and switching to jack puts it down to about 40%, but without "updating" the loudspeaker symbol beneath the close button in ardour, making it look like it is still at 100%. when clicking on the volume button in ardour, it then suddenly jumps down to the 40%, making it as loud as pulse sink way when dragging
[17:01] <florianf_>  it up again to 100%
[17:01] <florianf_> still a curious affair, though
[17:02] <florianf_> well, sry for bothering you
