[04:52] man... ubuntu studio is fucking awesome [04:53] dyingjohnnie: thanks!. glad you enjoy.. do try and keep the language clean in the channel [04:53] whoops [04:53] sorry guys. [04:53] dyingjohnnie: no worries :) [04:53] any of you guys use the synth or drum tools offered by US? [04:54] dyingjohnnie: i have [04:54] dyingjohnnie: you can also try #opensourcemusicians [04:54] i'm looking for some completed audio to listen to [04:54] oh nice [04:54] here are the issues.. as i see them [04:54] "good" is a matter of opinion [04:55] they really arent "offered by ubuntustudio" necessariy.. they are just in the main repos, and are basically available to any distro [04:55] hydrogen is the big drum synth folks use [04:55] there are many software synth options [04:55] well yeah [04:55] that's not really what i meant [04:56] i've NEVER used linux as a DAW [04:56] http://pneuman.bandcamp.com/ [04:56] and now it seems feasible [04:56] that is a friends work [04:57] well, its always been pretty do-able.. assuming you find what you are looking for, and dont mind learning the tools [04:57] well... [04:57] not exactly [04:57] the hardware was always the issue [04:57] dyingjohnnie: are we talking about hardare? [04:57] hardware? [04:57] dyingjohnnie: im not [04:57] audio interface compatibility at least in my experience used to be a motherduck to work with [04:57] dyingjohnnie: doesnt matter.. ubuntu/linux is up to the task [04:58] oh definitely [04:58] my interface worked out of the box. I almost peed my pantaloons [04:58] dyingjohnnie: *anyone* is always welcomd and encouraged to create and support what they like for whatever OS. including this one [04:58] dyingjohnnie: my presonus firepod works out of the box [04:58] dyingjohnnie: RME typically provides support [04:58] RME? [04:59] but, that support is typically not the responsibility of the OS, anyway [04:59] oh snap.. i have restart. the install is almost done here. I'll bbiab to continue this. [04:59] thank you very much [04:59] dyingjohnnie: enjoy.. im off soon [10:39] Hi, I'd like to remove the Unity bar at the bottom but I can't figure out how [10:49] InsertUser: The Unity bar? [10:50] #the one that shows when you put the cursor to the bottom [10:50] You seemed to have fixed your AMD driver issues? When you were here asking before, you always quit before anyone could answer [10:50] It's just a panel, like the one at the top [10:50] actually no [10:50] Right click on the panel, and choose panel settings [10:50] my computer conked out before anyone culd answer [10:51] could* [10:51] also, what do I do from settings [10:52] I'm sure you'll figure it out [10:52] I don't use XFCE myself, so.. [10:54] nope I cant figure out how to find it [10:54] remove* [10:54] There are two panels. You can choose to remove one [10:54] It's all there, in the panel settings [10:54] oh got it [10:54] you just select panel 1 and click the minus [10:57] anyway, can someone tell me how to install the AMD drivers without it messing up the resolution [10:57] AMD catalyst [11:05] Ok, now when I open Ubuntu Software Center it just exits [11:07] InsertUser: The only file I know of to fix resolutions is /etc/X11/xorg.conf, which does not exist by default. When setting up resolution settings with nvidia-settings, and saving, it will create that file [11:08] I'm assuming it's the same with Catalyst [11:08] it is [11:08] You'll need to run it as root, in order to make changes permanent [11:08] but I've edited that and When I re-booted it just reset the file [11:08] It can't reset [11:09] Any changes to that file are permanent [11:09] so, do I install the driver, edit the file, then reboot? [11:09] Try using Catalyst. That's should be the easiest [11:09] yeah I'm using the catalyst driver [11:10] But, you'll need root access to save to file [11:10] ik [11:10] gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf [11:10] I mean, Catalyst, the control center [11:10] ok [11:10] Not, fglrx, the driver [11:10] but you cant access that untill you reboot [11:10] Sure you can [11:10] i tried it [11:10] The driver won't be loaded, until you reboot [11:10] sudo amdccc [11:11] But, the files are all there [11:11] it came up with an error [11:11] Ah, right [11:11] you're right [11:11] It will error if the driver is not loaded [11:11] Well, edit the file by hand then [11:11] so do I just edit the file? [11:11] ok [11:14] If it doesn't work I'll press Ctrl+Alt+F1 and do sudo amdconfig --uninstall=force [11:15] ok... [11:15] what am I looking at in this file? [11:15] my monitor is 1024x768x60 [11:15] I dont know what line to change [11:17] zequence: what am I looking for to edit? [11:18] zequence? [11:22] This forum has a line that says "Modes: "1024x769"": http://askubuntu.com/questions/74808/how-do-i-force-a-resolution-of-1024x768 [11:22] do I add that line? [11:24] ok gonna reboot now [11:30] Nope that didn't work [11:33] I think I'll ask AMD Support [12:06] ciao a tutti [14:33] Hi, what's the keyboard shortcut for lowering the screen resolution? [15:04] What's the keyboard shortcut for lowering the screen resolution? [17:31] How do I format a USB? [17:32] wait I found a thing in Software Center, bye
