| holstein | dusty_: just ask | 02:04 |
| holstein | !proaudio > dusty_ | 02:05 |
| ubottu | dusty_, please see my private message | 02:05 |
| `Fibz | the volume control is under Launcher Menu -> Media Playpack -> pule audio volume control. jack control is under Launcher menu -> audio production -> qjackctl | 02:05 |
| holstein | dusty_: i suggest trying with the internal audio device.. something that is well supported in linux, that works well | 02:05 |
| holstein | dusty_: use only it.. unplug any other USB or firewire audio devices | 02:05 |
| dusty_ | i have no idea what to ask, it just does not work. I am sorry i try to start a session and it says | 02:05 |
| holstein | dusty_: no need to troubleshoot a new, potentially unsupported device *and* jack at the same time | 02:06 |
| dusty_ | Cannot connect to server socket err = No such file or directory | 02:06 |
| holstein | dusty_: sure | 02:06 |
| holstein | dusty_: so, make sure you have no other audio devices plugged in | 02:07 |
| dusty_ | the card works fine with pulse(output) I can not however get the input to register at all | 02:07 |
| `Fibz | in alsamixed is the inputs turned up? | 02:07 |
| dusty_ | no just the onboard is all it is, mic in(front and rear) along with a line in | 02:07 |
| dusty_ | yes they are all up to or past 100 | 02:07 |
| `Fibz | if i remember the inputs are at 0% by default | 02:07 |
| `Fibz | k | 02:07 |
| holstein | dusty_: use *only* the internal audio device for this test, and make sure you have it selected.. its easy to use the dropdown menu in the qjackctl to try many of the outputs | 02:07 |
| holstein | dusty_: then, you can try "gksudo qjackctl" to troubleshoot permissions | 02:08 |
| holstein | dusty_: if jack starts as root, and not your normal user, you know its permissions related | 02:08 |
| holstein | dusty_: if its not working as root, then you have the configuration incorrect | 02:08 |
| dusty_ | if i go through adour it seems to come on and work, but I can not get the input to work | 02:09 |
| holstein | dusty_: that can be the issue right there | 02:09 |
| dusty_ | ? | 02:09 |
| holstein | dusty_: you start jack *before* opening ardour or anything else | 02:09 |
| holstein | dusty_: if you open ardour, it tries to start jack,t hen, you close ardour, and jack can be left running in the background and not work anymore | 02:10 |
| holstein | dusty_: i would use.. | 02:10 |
| holstein | !proaudio | 02:10 |
| dusty_ | well thats just it i tryed MANY times before anything else and when I click start every time I get that error so I try just going to adour and it worked | 02:10 |
| dusty_ | proaudio? | 02:10 |
| holstein | after restarting, if you are unsure about how to check for JACK running | 02:10 |
| holstein | dusty_: the link i linked you in PM from the bot | 02:10 |
| holstein | dusty_: there is no need to start ardour til you get jack running | 02:11 |
| holstein | dusty_: does jack start as root using "gksudo qjackctl" ? | 02:11 |
| dusty_ | yes it does | 02:13 |
| holstein | dusty_: ok.. so, its permissions related with your user | 02:16 |
| holstein | dusty_: *or*, you are having issues with it running in the background | 02:17 |
| holstein | dusty_: you could be starting it, and not understanding that it needs to be stopped, or how to stop it, or that it has been started, and is still running | 02:17 |
| holstein | dusty_: i would try making sure your user is in the audio group, then, try and follow the wiki page i gave you for troubleshooting | 02:17 |
| dusty_ | i think it is still running right now because i am now getting an error, d-bus: setparametervalue | 02:18 |
| dusty_ | i am on that page now and going through the steps | 02:18 |
| dusty_ | can someone please explain to me how to make sure that it is closed? is there a -kill command or something i can run? | 02:19 |
| holstein | dusty_: there are many kill commands | 02:21 |
| holstein | dusty_: theres "sudo killall jack".. theres "ps aux | grep jack" and look and kill the PID | 02:21 |
| holstein | dusty_: you can just reboot and *dont* start it | 02:21 |
| holstein | start it only with qjackctl after checking to see that your user is in the audio group | 02:22 |
| holstein | dusty_: did you check to see if you user is in the audio group? | 02:22 |
| dusty_ | no im searching right now how to do it | 02:22 |
| holstein | sudo adduser "you" audio | 02:22 |
| holstein | replacing "you" with your username, without the quotation marks | 02:23 |
| holstein | it wont hurt anything to run that command and check | 02:23 |
| dusty_ | it says im already a user of the group | 02:23 |
| holstein | dusty_: ok... if i were you, on your current level, i would reboot, and make sure you reference the link i gave, and start jack with qjackctl | 02:24 |
| holstein | dusty_: dont open *any* audio apps for any reason til jack is running | 02:25 |
| dusty_ | will do thank you for the help | 02:25 |
| holstein | dusty_: try as normal user.. if that fails.. try as root.. gksudo qjackctl | 02:25 |
| Terrance1arrior | let pus put control and z next to each other on the key and let us assign those keys 'EXIT'. | 11:13 |
