[00:29] <MaynardWaters> jazzyeagle?
[02:50] <gfallbackjcbv> whats the best 99 dollar keyboard for linux
[03:06] <Cbass2401> I has question.
[03:07] <Cbass2401> Are Ubuntu Studio versions commonly released at about the same time Ubuntu versions are released?
[03:08] <XRS1> yes
[03:08] <holstein> Cbass2401: ubuntustudio *is* ubuntu.. just customized.. same sources and default repositories.. same schedule
[03:09] <Cbass2401> Oh, awesome
[03:10] <Cbass2401> Thing is I use Ubuntu, and have recently thought about giving Ubuntu Studio a try, so I dunno if I should isntall 13.04 or wait until 13.10
[03:10] <holstein> Cbass2401: try either live.. or just add what you want to use to main ubuntu
[03:11] <holstein> Cbass2401: you can just fire up an ubuntustudio live cd and check it out, or install the software you want to use from our packages into ubuntu right now, since the sources are the same
[03:11] <Cbass2401> Yeah, I think I'll do that...
[03:12] <Cbass2401> By the way, how well does Ubuntu Studio work with not-so-powerful PC's?
[03:12] <holstein> Cbass2401: nothing in the lines of software makes your machine any more than it is
[03:12] <holstein> Cbass2401: xfce is one of the lighter-on-resources desktops
[03:12] <holstein> Cbass2401: try if live and see
[03:13] <holstein> i would say, if ubuntustudio or xubuntu one run on the machine confortably, you wont want to do any production work on that machine anyway
[03:13] <XRS1> better to run Ubuntu Studio than Ubuntu on a low spec PC
[03:13] <holstein> maybe
[03:14] <holstein> might be better to run something else entirely, like lubuntu, and not expect to do audio/video production, or run the unity desktop on a low spec machine
[03:14] <XRS1> well i run a lot of low spec equipment and ubuntu studio is perfect (unless it has less than 16GB of HDD space, in that case use xubuntu)
[03:15] <Cbass2401> Interesting... And how about RAM?
[03:15] <holstein> sure. all im saying is, audio/video production, in general, on lowspec hardware is not ideal
[03:15] <XRS1> ubuntu studio idles @ 384 MB (200 MB if less than 768 RAM)
[03:15] <holstein> if the machine wont run XFCE comfortably, you likely wont want to run ardour or a large video editor on it anyway
[03:16] <Cbass2401> I'm mainly worried about my RAM, everything else is ok on my PC
[03:16] <Cbass2401> I have 1.6 GB
[03:17] <holstein> Cbass2401: if you have more ram, put it in.. if you dont, use the software
[03:17] <holstein> Cbass2401: 1.6 should be plenty.. try it live
[03:17] <Cbass2401> Ok, I will
[03:20] <Cbass2401> One more question: Can Ubuntu Studio be installed via USB?
[03:20] <XRS1> yeah
[03:20] <Cbass2401> Awesome
[03:23] <Cbass2401> I can also use proprietary formats such as .mp3, right?
[03:25] <holstein> !mp3
[03:25] <holstein> Cbass2401: ^
[03:27] <XRS1> Ubuntu Studio. Best Linux Ever.
[03:28] <Cbass2401> Thanks, one last question
[03:29] <Cbass2401> Does it work well when using it for any other purpose appart from multimedia production?
[03:30] <Cbass2401> Let's say, if I have it installed as my main OS, can I use it for things such as creating office documents, simple gaming, etc?
[03:30] <XRS1> yes
[03:31] <Cbass2401> excellent, then
[03:31] <Cbass2401> Well, thanks for your help, guys
[03:31] <XRS1> its ubuntu but geared for creative design
[03:31] <Cbass2401> Ok, gonna download it right now
[03:31] <Cbass2401> thanks again, bye
[03:31] <XRS1> enjoy

[22:56] <vlt> Hello. my alsa device I want to playback with mplayer is called "default:CARD=K6" by `aplay -L`. I tried "-ao alsa:device=default:CARD=K6" but I get "Could not parse arguments at the position indicated below:" (points to the capital "C"). I changed ":" to "=" but still the device isn't found. Any idea?
