| EleanorEllis | Thunar doesn't remember my ftp passwords even though I check the "Remember forever" box. It seems to call the keyring application and I enter my password there to unlock the keyring but still no joy, so I have to enter my ftp usernames and passwords every time. | 01:08 |

| nickhilr1 | is there a way to get ubuntu studio with just audio packages, like jack, ardour zyn etc and not blender, inkscape, gimp and everything | 05:42 |
| zequence | nickhilr1: Yes, with 14.04, you can deselect packages | 06:51 |
| zequence | ..during installation | 06:51 |
| nickhilr1 | oh i meant while downloading the image.. i am on limited internet bandwidth | 07:03 |
| zequence | nickhilr1: You can get any Ubuntu flavor, and add the audio packages to it | 07:05 |
| zequence | nickhilr1: just add yourself to audio group, and install linux-lowlatency once you're done | 07:06 |
| zequence | also, say "yes" to realtime, when installing jack | 07:06 |
| zequence | all of the audio packages are in ubuntustudio-audio | 07:06 |
| zequence | so.. | 07:06 |
| zequence | sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio-audio linux-lowlatency | 07:06 |
| nickhilr1 | cool.. what did you mean audio group.. i am new to linux | 07:07 |
| zequence | nickhilr1: User are members of groups in order to get access to certain things, like the CD-rom | 07:08 |
| zequence | nickhilr1: sudo usermod -a -G audio $USER | 07:09 |
| zequence | $USER is your user name | 07:09 |
| zequence | to see all the groups you are in, use the command: groups | 07:10 |
| zequence | but, you'll need to logout/login to see changes | 07:10 |
| zequence | nickhilr1: Just be careful with the "usermod" command. You can mess things up with it | 07:10 |
| nickhilr1 | zequence: so i install ubuntu first and then install audio packages and add my account to the audio group later | 07:13 |
| zequence | nickhilr1: Yep | 07:13 |
| nickhilr1 | zequence: alright.. thank you :) | 07:16 |
| aloiece | are the ardour updates (so to speak) streamlined in 14.04? (Not sure I'm using the word correctly) | 16:45 |
| Jmainguy | which updates | 16:50 |
| holstein | aloiece: yes | 16:51 |
| holstein | aloiece: but, the version is what it is.. you dont get an updated version. just maintenance | 16:51 |
| aloiece | jmainguy: the updates that ardour releases regularly, | 16:51 |
| aloiece | thanks holstein. yap that's fine | 16:51 |
| holstein | aloiece: ubuntu is not a "rolling release". if you want the latest version of ardour, you can get it yourself from the creator, who, if youa re contributing, will provide a simple executable.. or, PPA.. such as kxstudio ppa | 16:52 |
| holstein | what do i do? i am personally a contributor, so i just download the latest from ardour directly | 16:53 |
| Jmainguy | you have to be a contributor to get ir from ardour? | 16:53 |
| holstein | Jmainguy: no | 16:53 |
| holstein | Jmainguy: you have to be a contributor to get the binary already compiled and ready to easily click and run | 16:53 |
| aloiece | Me too, I only just upgraded to ubuntustudio 14.04 and I was wondering if I'd still "have to" download the maintenance (as you described it well) updates myself or if I'll get them | 16:54 |
| Jmainguy | Thats pretty lame | 16:54 |
| holstein | Jmainguy: its opensource.. the source for the latest versions is available free.. and you can make whatever you like with it.. including a binary, or PPA | 16:54 |
| holstein | Jmainguy: ? | 16:54 |
| holstein | why?.. it was never promised.. its "as-advertised" | 16:54 |
| Jmainguy | going through the work to compile it, and then not giving it out | 16:54 |
| Jmainguy | thats pretty lame | 16:54 |
| holstein | Jmainguy: you can "go through the work" and give it out all you like | 16:55 |
| Jmainguy | yes, yes I can | 16:55 |
| holstein | Jmainguy: if in doing said work, you think its work charging for, thats all the creator is charging for, currently | 16:55 |
| Jmainguy | "the creator" | 16:55 |
| holstein | correct... paul davis | 16:55 |
| Jmainguy | I thought you were a contributor | 16:56 |
| holstein | Jmainguy: i pay.. thats how i get the pre-complied binary for my use, already ready to go.. and i consider it a donation to the cause, which i support | 16:56 |
| Jmainguy | ah, ok | 16:56 |
| holstein | but, the source is there at the site.. and the code gets into debian upstream | 16:56 |
| Jmainguy | I thought you meant you contributed code, and got the binary for it | 16:57 |
| Jmainguy | or contributed wiki updates, etc etc | 16:57 |
| holstein | no.. i just pay | 16:57 |
| Jmainguy | gotcha | 16:57 |
| holstein | though, paul may offer something like that, if he needed the help | 16:57 |
| holstein | i dont know him that well.. | 16:57 |
| Jmainguy | I am sure he wouldnt mind the help, hence open sourcing it | 16:57 |
| holstein | wouldnt hurt to ask, if one had more time than money, so to speak | 16:57 |
| Jmainguy | hey diff topic, was there never a 13.04? | 16:58 |
| holstein | !13.04 | 17:02 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 13.04 (Raring Ringtail) was the 18th release of Ubuntu. Support ended on January 27, 2014. See !eol, !upgrade and http://ubottu.com/y/raring | 17:02 |
| holstein | we had an ubuntustudio 13.04.. they are all EOL now | 17:03 |
| holstein | all flavors 13.04 is eol | 17:03 |
| Jmainguy | ah | 17:03 |
| Jmainguy | yeah I am fairly nub at ubuntu, I got to memorize their LTS strategy at some point | 17:03 |
| aloiece | holstein your name sounds familiar. I guess you're one of the developers (or main developers?) of ubuntustudio? | 17:04 |
| holstein | aloiece: just a non-code contributing volunteer | 18:23 |
| aloiece | well so far | 18:32 |
| aloiece | I'm trying to get into it. starting to study IT in september | 18:33 |
| aloiece | hei I've seen a ui cpu frequency manager in dreamstudio that I recently tried a live session of. wouldn't that be useful to implement in ubuntustudio as well? | 18:56 |
| holstein | aloiece: go for it | 18:56 |
| holstein | i just use an XFCE one | 18:56 |
| holstein | nothing prevents dick from putting those in debian upstream and getting them into ubuntu | 18:57 |
| aloiece | how can we urge them to do it? | 19:14 |
| holstein | aloiece: them? you mean dick? just ask him | 19:17 |
| holstein | its likely just a repo tool.. i would just look and see what it is | 19:17 |
| holstein | AFAIK, he's using unity.. you are free to use unity and whatever else you like.. though, its likely just a GTK tool | 19:17 |
