| holstein | delt: those are outputs.. and not for proaudio, regardless | 01:36 |
|---|---|---|
| holstein | the impedance is for consumer audio equipment.. | 01:36 |
| holstein | delt: personally, i avoid gear that doesnt have balanced connections.. im not saying you cant get "good" sound without a balance connection, but, a piece of gear with connections like that is trying to address a certain work flow | 01:45 |
| Guest68684 | some musician here ? | 04:00 |
| Unit193 | What's the question? | 04:00 |
| holstein | yes.. | 04:00 |
| * holstein is a musician.. what do you need Guest68684 ? | 04:02 | |
| Guest68684 | well i have a nano 2 keys midi controller but only works with lmms no ardour, rosegarden or Qtractor , i have ubuntu studio 14 | 04:02 |
| holstein | Guest68684: routing, likely | 04:02 |
| holstein | Guest68684: if it works with anything, then, it works with the system | 04:03 |
| Guest68684 | i routed but no way | 04:03 |
| holstein | Guest68684: you do *not* need a musician for this question | 04:03 |
| holstein | Guest68684: you need someone familiar with MIDI | 04:03 |
| holstein | Guest68684: you routed in JACK? how, precisely? | 04:03 |
| Guest68684 | i'm a por musician very known i know midi since it appears | 04:03 |
| Guest68684 | yes | 04:04 |
| holstein | Guest68684: sure.. but this is *not* the same as the MIDI you and i have used | 04:04 |
| Guest68684 | i think it the controller because drivers | 04:04 |
| holstein | Guest68684: no | 04:04 |
| holstein | Guest68684: if it were "controller because of drivers" it wouldnt work | 04:05 |
| holstein | Guest68684: you state it is working.. correct? | 04:05 |
| Guest68684 | yes | 04:05 |
| Guest68684 | nano works very well in wine | 04:05 |
| holstein | Guest68684: ok.. then, *how* are you routing? with JACK? | 04:05 |
| Guest68684 | q software | 04:05 |
| holstein | Guest68684: q software? | 04:06 |
| Guest68684 | qjack | 04:06 |
| holstein | correct... you are routing in JACK? JACK is running? | 04:06 |
| holstein | !proaudio | 04:06 |
| ubottu | For information on professional audio tools in Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/ProAudioIntro | 04:06 |
| Guest68684 | yes but messages always very weird and diferents | 04:07 |
| holstein | Guest68684: ^ have you read that? | 04:07 |
| holstein | Guest68684: what messages? | 04:07 |
| Guest68684 | yes | 04:07 |
| holstein | Guest68684: from where? | 04:07 |
| holstein | Guest68684: so, are yuo running jack? | 04:07 |
| Guest68684 | i post my problem there too | 04:07 |
| holstein | Guest68684: where? | 04:07 |
| Guest68684 | many of them are diferents | 04:07 |
| holstein | Guest68684: the link i gave is a wiki page with information.. you dont post there | 04:08 |
| holstein | Guest68684: them what? | 04:08 |
| Guest68684 | in LMMS nano works very well using jack instead of alsa | 04:08 |
| holstein | Guest68684: sure.. when you are running JACK, you need to configure applications to use JACK | 04:09 |
| Guest68684 | in qtractor i used fluidsynth sf2 but also do not conect keyboard | 04:09 |
| holstein | Guest68684: ok.. *dont* do that | 04:09 |
| holstein | Guest68684: you have too many variables | 04:09 |
| holstein | Guest68684: please do the following | 04:09 |
| holstein | 1. see that JACK is running.. | 04:09 |
| holstein | 2. open yoshimi | 04:10 |
| holstein | 3. use the virtual keyboard in the menu to insure that yoshimi is making sound, and routed properly for audio connections in JACK | 04:10 |
| Guest68684 | ok | 04:10 |
| Guest68684 | yoshimi do not open | 04:11 |
| holstein | 4. *then* move on to the midi connection of the nano to the application yoshimi *after* you have sound | 04:11 |
| Guest68684 | ok | 04:11 |
| holstein | you may need to use a2jmidid to make the nano connect to yoshimi in the same tab in JACK.. *this* step can be why you are unable to make the connectsion | 04:11 |
| holstein | connections* | 04:11 |
| holstein | Guest68684: "yoshimi do not open" is not a question | 04:12 |
| Guest68684 | a2jmidid i have to install it? | 04:12 |
| holstein | Guest68684: you'll need to install it if you dont have it.. you dont "have to" do *anything*.. | 04:13 |
| Guest68684 | i tell you i try to open yoshimi, and it doesn't open | 04:13 |
| holstein | Guest68684: sure.. thats *still* not a question, though | 04:14 |
| holstein | Guest68684: you can try "zynaddsubfx" | 04:14 |
| Guest68684 | ok | 04:15 |
| Guest68684 | thanks i will do your advice see you | 04:15 |
| holstein | well.. that happened | 04:16 |
| delt | Hello | 06:31 |
| delt | My laptop screen shuts itself off when i close the laptop lid, and there's no way to get it back on except to change console, or reboot | 06:31 |
| delt | even xrandr --auto, or xset dpms force on don't do it | 06:31 |
| zequence | delt: There was a post about that on the mail list. Seems like installing pm-utils solves it | 07:14 |
| zequence | We haven't yet had a chance to test it and fix it. Should be fixed within a month or less. | 07:14 |
| === tatie is now known as gregor3000 | ||
| delt | zequence: using the nouveau drivers, pm-utils doesn't fix it :( | 07:26 |
| delt | (installed it, logged out and back in) | 07:26 |
| delt | now testing with the propriertary nvidia driver | 07:26 |
| delt | zequence: also doesn't work with the proprietary nvidia driver | 07:31 |
| zequence | delt: I will be taking a look at that, once I have time. If you happen to find a solution before I do, please let me know. I would appreciate it | 07:35 |
| delt | zequence: looking at http://askubuntu.com/questions/248967/laptop-screen-stays-blank-after-lid-is-reopened | 07:42 |
| delt | zequence: i followed the instructions there, and the .sh file indeed gets called when opening/closing the lid, but there's no way for my laptop to reactivate the screen from /proc | 07:43 |
| delt | /proc, /sys, and /dev contain very little useful entries matching "lcd" :( | 07:43 |
| delt | zequence: tried this, failed --- http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 | 08:02 |
| delt | zequence: booting with acpi=off fixes the problem, but disables some needed/useful stuff... | 08:15 |
| delt | zequence: for now i kludged it with a script that switches VT and back when the laptop lid is open....hideous, but (usually) works :/ | 09:47 |
| zequence | delt: Thanks for the info. Might take me a couple of days before I get to that. If I find a neater solution, I'll ping you. | 12:44 |
| rhizo | Hi folks | 14:29 |
| delt | Hello | 20:41 |
| delt | bug: desktop settings shows only a blue square in the list of background wallpapers | 20:41 |
| zequence | delt: Was it always like that? | 20:42 |
| zequence | delt: Which release? How did you install it? | 20:42 |
| delt | zequence: fresh install on this machine, installed from dvd | 20:43 |
| delt | (laptop) | 20:43 |
| zequence | delt: trusty? | 20:43 |
| delt | yeah, 14.04 | 20:43 |
| delt | let me check on the desktop if it "became" like this as well with some updates | 20:43 |
| delt | nope... though the weird little blue square appears for about half a second while the thumbnails of images load | 20:44 |
| delt | let's see if i change the directory... | 20:46 |
| zequence | delt: I have that too, before the wallpapers load | 20:46 |
| delt | zequence: on the laptop, it stays stuck with the little blue square | 20:47 |
| zequence | delt: what is the folder set on? | 20:47 |
| delt | both before (default directory from fresh install) and after i changed it to a directory with a bunch of backgrounds | 20:48 |
| zequence | It should say "ubuntustudio" | 20:48 |
| delt | yeah that's what it was on by default | 20:48 |
| zequence | and the path should be /usr/share/backgrounds/ubuntustudio | 20:48 |
| delt | oh btw there's no easy way to just click and go back to default | 20:49 |
| zequence | delt: That's unfortunately not on our table. That is XFCE development :) | 20:49 |
| delt | oh, yeah | 20:49 |
| delt | anyway i set it back to the default, and the little blue square is gone, though i still have an empty list. | 20:50 |
| delt | close the window, reopen it, the square is back. | 20:51 |
| delt | zequence: for me it's not a big deal since i use wallch to switch wallpapers randomly -) | 20:51 |
| delt | but for my parents, this needs to be user-friendly and without too much bugs... | 20:52 |
| delt | s/much/many/ | 20:52 |
| zequence | delt: Are you in a Ubuntu Studio or a XFCE session? | 20:55 |
| zequence | delt: logout, and make sure | 20:55 |
| delt | ubuntu studio | 20:57 |
| delt | making sure, 2sec | 20:57 |
| delt | yep, ubuntu studio session | 20:57 |
| zequence | delt: the file that controls the path to wallpapers is /etc/xdg/xdg-ubuntustudio/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xfce4-desktop.xml | 20:58 |
| zequence | delt: Could be you overriden that path in user settings | 20:59 |
| zequence | delt: have a look in ~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xfce4-desktop.xml | 20:59 |
| delt | /etc/xdg/xdg-ubuntustudio/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xfce4-desktop.xml | 21:00 |
| delt | uh | 21:00 |
| delt | i mean http://www.deimos.ca/miscjunk/xfce4-desktop.xml | 21:01 |
| zequence | delt: If the file I posted last does not have the correct path to wallpapers - /usr/share/backgrounds/ubuntustudio, then delete it | 21:01 |
| zequence | delt: check the file in user settings, since that is the only one that should change easily | 21:01 |
| delt | zequence: does wallch futz around with that file to change desktop wallpapers? | 21:01 |
| delt | zequence: anyway the problem was present before i installed wallch (which i just did a few minutes ago) | 21:02 |
| delt | http://www.deimos.ca/miscjunk/xfce4-desktop.xml | 21:03 |
| zequence | delt: Actually, that is probably not it, now that I look closer | 21:06 |
| delt | oops, that second link was meant to be http://www.deimos.ca/miscjunk/user-xfce4-desktop.xml | 21:08 |
| delt | that's the one in my ~ | 21:08 |
| delt | the first one was the one in /etc | 21:08 |
| zequence | delt: Could be we are missing a possible setting | 21:09 |
| delt | just removed it, and re-ran the desktop settings, still same bug | 21:10 |
| zequence | delt: If you select a wallpaper in /usr/share/backgrounds/ubuntustudio/, it should become default | 21:10 |
| delt | in wallch? | 21:11 |
| delt | i can't select individual files in the desktop settings | 21:11 |
| zequence | delt: No, in the xfce desktop settings | 21:11 |
| zequence | delt: Set the folder /usr/share/backgrounds/ubuntustudio, then you will be able to select any wp in there | 21:11 |
| zequence | when you close desktop settings, and open again, you will see the same wp selection | 21:12 |
| delt | nope... the list is still empty | 21:12 |
| delt | (no blue square this time) | 21:12 |
| zequence | delt: Sure you got the right path? /usr/share/backgrounds/ubuntustudio | 21:13 |
| zequence | delt: Sure you got the right path? /usr/share/backgrounds/ubuntustudio/ | 21:13 |
| delt | yep, typed it in the gtk selector window | 21:14 |
| delt | (with tab completion) | 21:14 |
| delt | :) | 21:14 |
| delt | let's try clicking my way to it | 21:14 |
| delt | nope.. blue square | 21:15 |
| zequence | delt: Well, if I change wp to something in another folder, that folder will be default next time | 21:15 |
| delt | anyway, if it works for you then it will probably work fine on another laptop | 21:15 |
| delt | in other news... how do i use a magnet link from firefox to a program (rtorrent) that's running on another machine? | 21:18 |
| zequence | delt: That would not be typically Ubuntu Studio specific, but I guess you copy the magnet link to your clipboard | 21:19 |
| zequence | or, you specify a path to a program that is launchpable from the system you are on | 21:19 |
| delt | hahaha "ubuntu is an ancient african word translating to: cannot configure debian" | 21:30 |
| zequence | good one | 21:32 |
| zequence | sleepy time | 21:33 |
| delt | where from? | 21:33 |
| delt | <--- montreal, canada | 21:33 |
