[01:51] <XRS1> volume indicator does not work in 13.10 Beta 1?
[02:00] <jcbv1> hi guys
[02:00] <jcbv1> whats up
[02:00] <jcbv1> i need some help with groups
[02:00] <XRS1> what are you trying to do?
[03:19] <iUnify> I am looking for a way to organize my applications in Ubuntu.  I have all of the Studio apps for example - and I am very happy with the way that Studio organizes them... namely in an approiately named folder with the link to each app... sub folders if neccessary... secondly with the fact that menu is right at the top of the screen where the Ubuntu menu is.... so, I would like VERY much to find a way to do something of this nature
[03:20] <iUnify> Ubuntu menu than I would like to at least be able to have an application launcher I can create folders in and sub folders with shortcuts to the apps.  Like Mac has.... whatever, just somthing.  Any help!?  :D
[03:23] <XRS1> ubuntu studio uses the menu editor called alacarte (in the settings menu as Main Menu)
[03:23] <iUnify> I had alacarte
[03:24] <iUnify> it didnt seem to work.  I added items but they never showed
[03:24] <XRS1> i've never done any menu editing beyond that, myself
[03:24] <XRS1> there were some bugs that have sence been worked out
[03:24] <iUnify> ah.  YEah I don't want to hav to search it, I wanna be able to search THROUGH it
[03:25] <XRS1> like Unity?
[03:25] <XRS1> or KDE?
[03:25] <XRS1> a search in the menu
[03:25] <iUnify> Yes! Like studio...
[03:26] <iUnify> Like Windows...
[03:26] <iUnify> Like Mac... whatever
[03:26] <iUnify> I want to be able to search for all the different apps like that, for example in Studio the Audio Production tools, I can' t find what I want otherwise.
[03:26] <iUnify> Know what I mean?
[03:26] <XRS1> im seeing an app called Whisker Menu for xfce
[03:26] <XRS1> replaces the current menu
[03:27] <XRS1> http://www.webupd8.org/2013/07/whisker-menu-fast-application-launcher.html
[03:28] <XRS1> looks like it doesnt work anymore though unless you compile from source  :(
[03:28] <iUnify> Yeah but I don't have xfce, I'm in Ubuntu
[03:28] <iUnify> so thats GNOME, right?
[03:29] <iUnify> I'm shocked its not a thing.... people have all their apps memorized?
[03:29] <XRS1> there is the application finder which you can bring up with Alt+F2, (or you can remap this to whatever keyboard command)
[03:29] <wilee-nilee> XRS1, The PPA not have a version for the release you are running?
[03:30] <XRS1> im just reading old news from july :P
[03:31] <wilee-nilee> XRS1, I see precise to saucy in the PPA
[03:31] <XRS1> well there ya go
[03:32] <iUnify> Hmm... I don't know, Alt+F2 is the same, you have to KNOW what you are searching for.
[03:32] <XRS1> http://gottcode.org/xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin/
[03:32] <iUnify> I like to see an organized list of what I have to open it.
[03:32] <iUnify> Xfce, not GNOME, right?  Not for Ubuntu.
[03:32] <iUnify> ?
[03:33] <XRS1> it says its for xfce which is what ubuntu studio uses
[03:33] <iUnify> Ah yea, I am not using Studio
[03:33] <iUnify> I am using Ubuntu.... with all of the studio apps.
[03:33] <iUnify> Trying to organize them as done IN studio
[03:34] <XRS1> well try out whisker menu
[03:34] <iUnify> Or with a similar idea... like Windows with folders or Mac with the app launcher at the bottom of the screen.
[03:34] <iUnify> I don't have XFCE, I have GNOME, Ubuntu- not Studio.
[03:34] <wilee-nilee> XRS1, YOu just want to be aware of ppa-purge if you have problems
[03:34] <wilee-nilee> !ppa-purge
[03:36] <XRS1> have you asked in #ubuntu? i've never like gnome
[03:37] <iUnify> I have, I have... no luck unfortunately.
[03:37] <iUnify> I like xfce also but aspects of GNOME as well, but anyway, humph... I dont know what to do
[03:40] <XRS1> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNOME_Do
[03:40] <XRS1> looks promising
[04:03] <iUnify> Hey Guys.... you know the Ubuntu Search...? For example, when I click the "Applications" tab... it gives me results in 3 fields: Recently Used, Installed and Available For Download... can I consolidate that to just Installed? I dont want to see ALL the other results and have separate categories.... just keep it simple.
[04:04] <iUnify> Sorry to ask here - I know Studio is xfce not GOME - but I took a shot, no replies in #ubuntu.
[04:08] <XRS1> well there are also plenty of other rooms for linux with a much broader scope of support than this one
[16:36] <sirriffsalot> I'm having curious x-run sounds at the exact same times in a final session export, and I can't work out what's doing it, because when I play it in ardour itself, it sounds flawless.. Any ideas?
[18:24] <ubuntu-studio_pr> hi friends! i need help!
[18:25] <ubuntu-studio_pr> currently i am installing ubuntu-studio 12.04.3 on acer aspire 5541
[18:26] <ubuntu-studio_pr> and i have some problems
[18:26] <OvenWerks> such as?
[18:28] <ubuntu-studio_pr> installer (gui) dont find my hdd (sorry for bad english) and on partitioning tab dont show any slices/drives...
[18:28] <ubuntu-studio_pr> but
[18:29] <ubuntu-studio_pr> on boot loader destination it shows /dev/sda and in partition manager drive seed nice
[18:29] <ubuntu-studio_pr> *gparted
[18:30] <OvenWerks> english is fine, no worries.
[18:30] <OvenWerks> I have never had a problem with finding a drive though.
[18:31] <ubuntu-studio_pr> i can mount it from desktop an console and i can partitioning it, but
[18:31] <OvenWerks> are you making sure it is unmounted before you start the installer?
[18:32] <ubuntu-studio_pr> yes ofcourse
[18:32] <OvenWerks> Is it a usb drive.
[18:32] <OvenWerks> After you unmount it you may have to unplug/replug
[18:32] <ubuntu-studio_pr> no/ it is simple integrated sata drive
[18:33] <OvenWerks> Ok. I have done both so thought I would ask :)
[18:33] <OvenWerks> does df show it is gone after unmounting?
[18:34] <ubuntu-studio_pr> 5 sec
[18:35] <ubuntu-studio_pr> no i do not see it
[18:36] <OvenWerks> hm, I am stumped... as far as I know ubiquity, just makes calls to parted
[18:37] <ubuntu-studio_pr> parted already it sees
[18:37] <OvenWerks> ya , I know.
[18:37] <ubuntu-studio_pr> have any idea&
[18:37] <ubuntu-studio_pr> have any idea?
[18:37] <OvenWerks> so youo are using the "something else" option?
[18:38] <OvenWerks> (in the installer)
[18:38] <ubuntu-studio_pr> what is this?
[18:38] <ubuntu-studio_pr> flash&
[18:38] <ubuntu-studio_pr> flash?
[18:38] <ubuntu-studio_pr> adobe&
[18:38] <ubuntu-studio_pr> adobe?
[18:39] <ubuntu-studio_pr> 5 secs i run installer on eng ))))
[18:39] <OvenWerks> the installer has the language page then, the make sure there is enough memory etc page
[18:39] <OvenWerks> then the next page has install options
[18:40] <ubuntu-studio_pr> no my build dont shows these fields
[18:40] <OvenWerks> The bottom one is the "Something else" option... unless they have renamed it to manual like kde
[18:40] <OvenWerks> how are you tryingto install then?
[18:43] <ubuntu-studio_pr> i am select lang then next tab cheks internet connection, free space, and asks about installing updates from inet and checkbox for adobe flash and fraunhoffer mp3 codec.
[18:44] <ubuntu-studio_pr> both checbox is selected
[18:44] <OvenWerks> ok, next screen
[18:44] <ubuntu-studio_pr> next tab partitioning///
[18:44] <ubuntu-studio_pr> next tab partitioning...
[18:44] <OvenWerks> yes, there should be a "Something else at
[18:44] <OvenWerks> the bottom.
[18:46] <ubuntu-studio_pr> installer dont start ((( - live dvd
[18:50] <ubuntu-studio_pr> i-am leave for 5 min while rebooting system
[19:08] <OvenWerks> wilee-nilee: when the guy how was talking shows up again, I have had to and do family stuff
[19:09] <OvenWerks> please tell him
[19:09] <wilee-nilee> No prob
[19:19] <ubuntu-studio_pr> q
[19:20] <ubuntu-studio_pr> i dont see any another items on partitioning tab
[19:21] <wilee-nilee> OvenWerks wanted you to know they had to attend to family stuff
[19:22] <ubuntu-studio_pr> tnx
[19:23] <holstein> ubuntu-studio_pr: what items are you expecting?
[19:23] <ubuntu-studio_pr> anybody may know about troubles with drive on partitioning tab at installing ubuntu studio?
[19:24] <holstein> ubuntu-studio_pr: what troubles are you having?
[19:24] <holstein> if the installer isnt working out for you, you can load the live CD and use gparted.. and make whatever you need manually
[19:24] <ubuntu-studio_pr> i am installing ubuntu studio 12-04-3 on acer aspire 5541
[19:25] <ubuntu-studio_pr> and on partitioning tab i dont select any drives/slices
[19:25] <ubuntu-studio_pr> ok i deed it, but installer dont  see it
[19:26] <ubuntu-studio_pr> i doo clear slices from drive and installer it dont see
[19:26] <holstein> ubuntu-studio_pr: if the drive is bad, the installer wont "fix" it
[19:26] <ubuntu-studio_pr> *do
[19:26] <ubuntu-studio_pr> drive good
[19:26] <holstein> what would i do? run the smart tests from a live CD.. some kind of diagnostic tests
[19:27] <holstein> ubuntu-studio_pr: how are you determining "drive good"?
[19:27] <ubuntu-studio_pr> all hdd and mem tests passed
[19:27] <holstein> ubuntu-studio_pr: what hard drive test?
[19:27] <holstein> ubuntu-studio_pr: the test im referring to would take over an hour, and the live CD would have to be able to see it
[19:28] <ubuntu-studio_pr> mhdd and self tests
[19:28] <holstein> is that the case? you can see? and mount the drive from the live CD? if so, make your partitions
[19:28] <ubuntu-studio_pr> and smart answers it good
[19:29] <ubuntu-studio_pr> yes i cat mount it with gparted partitioning it transfer files folders
[19:29] <ubuntu-studio_pr> *i can
[19:29] <ubuntu-studio_pr> yes i can mount it with gparted partitioning it transfer files folders
[19:29] <holstein> ubuntu-studio_pr: then, make you partitions, and see if the installer can see them
[19:29] <ubuntu-studio_pr> no it cannot see them
[19:30] <holstein> ubuntu-studio_pr: them what?
[19:30] <holstein> ubuntu-studio_pr: the ext2/3/4 partition you make?
[19:30] <ubuntu-studio_pr> yes
[19:30] <ubuntu-studio_pr> and ntfs
[19:30] <holstein> there is nothing about ubuntu, ubuntustudio, or linux preventing you from seeing your hard drive from the installer
[19:30] <holstein> what would i do? try an ubuntu 12.04 installer.. or *any* other live installer
[19:31] <holstein> rule out that the ubuntustudio installer is the issue
[19:32] <ubuntu-studio_pr> i try kubuntu 12/04
[19:32] <holstein> ubuntu-studio_pr: this is the support channel for #ubuntustudio
[19:32] <ubuntu-studio_pr> these simple story
[19:32] <holstein> ubuntu-studio_pr: you might try #kubuntu or main #ubuntu
[19:32] <holstein> try our installer, or the main ubuntu installer
[19:34] <ubuntu-studio_pr> holstein sorry for my bad english? but i try any of yo writed dists and i see about disk dont seems in installer
[19:34] <holstein> ubuntu-studio_pr: not sure where to send you
[19:34] <holstein> i know, i would try the main normal ubuntu installer
[19:34] <ubuntu-studio_pr> but fkn win installs momentally
[19:34] <holstein> i would do that for the support purposes
[19:35] <holstein> there is, as i said, nothing about ubuntu that is preventing the hard drive from being installed
[19:35] <holstein> if you have something in the system that is locking it, it will be locked
[19:35] <holstein> !uefi
[19:35] <holstein> ^for example
[19:35] <holstein> i would get the main normal ubuntu 13.04 live CD, and see if the installer there "sees" the drive.. then, i would report to the larger ubuntu community what is going on
[19:36] <ubuntu-studio_pr> my mb dont have uefi
[19:36] <holstein> ubuntu-studio_pr: thats why i said "for example"
[19:36] <holstein> ubuntu-studio_pr: im not meaning to imply that you have, or should have uefi, nor that that is the cause.. but, i can assure you, our installer is not doing anything to prevent (at least intentionally) the use of your hard drive
[19:36] <ubuntu-studio_pr> i need studio in latest LTS
[19:37] <holstein> ubuntu-studio_pr: consider it a troubleshooting step then
[19:37] <holstein> !md5
[19:37] <holstein> also, test your sum
[19:39] <holstein> you can try the main normal ubuntu installer for 12.04.. if that fails, then you can report to the larger ubuntu community
[19:39] <ubuntu-studio_pr> md5 is good, currently i am kill any systems on hdd and cannot make any tests from win or another system, i have only this live dvd ((
[19:40] <holstein> http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop
[19:41] <holstein> ^^ i would get the 12.04 desktop, normal, vanilla ubuntu
[19:41] <holstein> if the intaller works, use it
[19:41] <holstein> you can add what you want from the ubuntustudio packages
[19:41] <holstein> if it doesnt work, then, you'll have a *much* larger community of relevant support
[19:42] <holstein> if you have another hard drive handy, you can put that in.. or try to install to USB
[19:42] <ubuntu-studio_pr> i can't write it my cd/dvd is busy with live dvd ubuntustudio? and i havent working flashdrive, only qnap drive in my home network
[19:42] <holstein> ubuntu-studio_pr: i would examine that then.. how you are doing that
[19:43] <holstein> ubuntu-studio_pr: that could be causing the issue you are experiencing
[20:18] <iUnify> Hey guys, I record with Audacity (know its not what I should use - but, for the moment...) and just reinstalled Ubuntu... I am always able to just hit "R" to record and go.... well, now when I start fresh I can just hit "R" and go... buuuut, when I start as I am now with a drum track I've made and hit
[20:18] <iUnify> "R" I just get a new track with what I presume is a milisecond of recording.  Can't get it to just go for me.
[20:23] <iUnify> ANyone??? crapola....
