[12:24] <schnitz> hi there... anyone home?
[12:25] <ObrienDave> definitely not home ;p
[12:28] <schnitz> hey ObrienDave :-)... thanks for responding. Merry Xmas... no worries, I'm not religious ,-) ... anway I'm trying to get my UbuntoStudio to work Audio-wise, and I'm quite a novice... so a little chat might be nice...
[12:28] <ObrienDave> work as in what way?
[12:29] <ObrienDave> and BAH! humbug! ;P
[12:29] <schnitz> yes, thanks for asking. I have a RME Hammerfall DSP PCI card with external 8-channel audio interface, and I'm trying to get real-time multi-track recording to work...
[12:30] <ObrienDave> oooo, way beyond my knowledge, sorry
[12:30] <schnitz> haha... no prob :-)
[12:31] <ObrienDave> but stick around or ask in #ubuntu. more people there to help
[12:32] <schnitz> but in general, since I'm not so much into linux... what I miss about UbuntuStudio is some Menu where you can see all the hardware installed, like, I have no idea whether Ubuntu really 'sees' my special audio PCI card...
[12:33] <ObrienDave> in terminal type, lspci
[12:34] <schnitz> cool, checking...
[12:34] <ObrienDave> it should show up somewhere
[12:36] <schnitz> alright, that already helped, it doesn't show up there, thought so...
[12:37] <schnitz> Thanks man, that gives me at least a little hint...
[12:39] <ObrienDave> sorry i couldn't help more
[12:43] <schnitz> hey... you helped, I at least know where to look further, have a great day :-)
[17:20] <fathom> Hi, I have Ubuntustudio. Inkscape takes 2 minutes, 20 seconds to launch. I have 8 gigs of dd3 ram and a quad core cpu plus graphics card processor. Why does inkscape take so long to load?
[17:30] <holstein> fathom: try launching from the terminal, and share helpful error messages
[17:30] <holstein> !paste
[17:31] <mikhail> как подключить миди клавиатуру к убуету студио?
[17:31] <cfhowlett> !ru | mikhail
[17:32] <holstein> !proaudio | mikhail
[17:32] <mikhail> join #ubuntu - ru
[17:32] <cfhowlett> holstein, dude!  you understand Russian?  muy impressivo!
[17:32] <holstein> mikhail: you'll need /join
[17:33] <holstein> mikhail: /join #ubuntu-ru
[17:33] <holstein> not that they will have specifics about connecting midi keyboards there.. you literally plug the midi keyboard in.. it either works or not.. then, you use JACK, explained in the link above, to connect it
[17:33] <holstein> cfhowlett: google translate FTW :)
[17:34] <cfhowlett> holstein, dah!
[18:22] <studio> hey guys, have an installation question.  I have a presario v3000 that I have been trying to install linux on but the installer crashes every time.  I tried to install first to the hard drive.  Then I removed the hard drive and tried installing to jump drive.  Every time it crashes, regardless of what OS I am trying, regardless of the installation media, i.e livecd, liveusb.  any idea what might be causing this?
[18:22] <holstein> studio: sounds like bad hardware
[18:23] <studio> but what hardware?
[18:23] <holstein> studio: i would test the memory, and the hard disks im trying to use
[18:23] <holstein> studio: bad/failing hardware
[18:23] <holstein> studio: if you state *all* operating systems fail, the ram is a constant, as well as the motherboard, other other components, all of which will fail
[18:23] <studio> the internal hard drive i removed.  it tested good using the disk utility on a livecd
[18:24] <studio> but it runs good from a live setup
[18:24] <holstein> studio: sure, so, as i state, that just leaves *all* the other components, like the ram, *all* of which will fail
[18:24] <studio> can I check the ram?
[18:24] <studio> or the motherboard?
[18:24] <holstein> studio: from *any* linux live iso
[22:51] <schnitz> hi
[22:52] <schnitz> can't get u_studio to display proper grafics resolution
[22:52] <schnitz> stuck with 1024 on 60Hz
[22:53] <schnitz> using AMD A6 APU mit additional ATI grafics card
[22:54] <schnitz> installed proprietary AMD driver.. 'catalyst control center', but requires su pw for the conf, which I don't seem to have...
[22:54] <schnitz> my user pw doesn't let me into the conf programm
[23:04] <schnitz> how do I become super-user on ubuntu_studio?
[23:11] <schnitz> back
[23:11] <schnitz> still no clue how to become su
[23:15] <delt> schnitz: in a terminal, type "su" =)
[23:15] <delt> then it should ask you your password
[23:16] <delt> and then everything you run from that terminal will run as root.
[23:19] <delt> oh btw, i just made a modified version of the Greybird theme with mac/osx like buttons, and thicker lower border for easier resizing of windows
[23:19] <delt> just uploaded it here ---> http://www.deimos.ca/miscjunk/greybird-mac.tar.gz
[23:19] <delt> actually just the xfwm4 stuff is modified, the rest is the exact same as regular greybird theme.
[23:20] <schnitz> delt thanks...
[23:20] <schnitz> however, my pw doesn't work
[23:21] <schnitz> my user pw is correct though
[23:21] <schnitz> it doen't let me legitimate as su
[23:21] <schnitz> also, what if I don't want to start something via terminal mode?
[23:22] <schnitz> I have downloaded the grafics driver package I badly need to get normal screen res, and after starting that package from the GUI it says can't do it since I'm not su
[23:24] <delt> schnitz: try "sudo bash -l" (without the quotes)
[23:26] <schnitz> AAAaaahhhhhhhh....
[23:29] <delt> (replace bash with whatever shell you prefer)
[23:29] <schnitz> thanks
[23:29] <delt> now you can change your root password with passwd
[23:29] <delt> and any other user's password with passwd <username>
[23:30] <schnitz> tadaaa...
[23:30] <schnitz> that worked
[23:40] <schnitz> thanks again... I'm a newbie... sorry... can I switch account when logging on the ubuntu and log myself in a superuser right away from the beginning?
[23:44] <delt> um... i wouldn't recommend that
[23:44] <schnitz> why not?
[23:44] <schnitz> just curious
[23:45] <delt> usually you just use the root account when doing maintenance, installing programs etc.... for normal use it's easy to do some damage to your system by not paying attention to what you're doing.
[23:45] <schnitz> I don't mind crashing my installation, nothing on it... I'll just re-install
[23:45] <schnitz> but I see
[23:45] <schnitz> good point
[23:46] <delt> anyway, add yourself to the /etc/sudoers file, and you can run any command with "sudo <command> etcetc"
[23:46] <delt> as rppt
[23:46] <delt> root
[23:48] <delt> even better, ubuntu comes with the group "sudo" added by default to the /etc/sudoers file
[23:49] <delt> so you can just edit your /etc/groups file, find the line that starts with "sudo" and at the end add your username
[23:49] <delt> for example, my username on this system is simply "user". The sudo line in my /etc/groups looks like this ---> sudo:x:27:user
[23:51] <delt> once that's done, (next time you login) you can run any command as root by typing "sudo command" instead of just "command"
[23:51] <delt> (that's basic unix stuff, that has existed since the late 60's early 70's :D :D )
[23:52] <schnitz> cool man, thanks for letting me know
[23:52] <delt> or...? historically i'm not sure when sudo became a common unix command
[23:53] <delt> anyway, as you can see the unix model was designed to develop and adapt, unlike the *ahem* leading brand of "operating system" that's on the market today
[23:53] <schnitz> however, my display driver is not working, and i HAD to install the new package by myself, and there is this rather heavy information learning process required to do so
[23:53] <delt> what video card?
[23:54] <schnitz> ATI
[23:54] <schnitz> AMD A6 APU
[23:54] <delt> hmm.... much less familiar with those, i've always been using nvidia myself
[23:54] <schnitz> with an additional ATI Radion PCIe card
[23:54] <schnitz> Radeon
[23:54] <schnitz> no kidding, this is not working out-of-the-box
[23:55] <schnitz> needless to say, it does in other OS
[23:55] <delt> hmm... maybe ask #ubuntu - surely someone there will be able to help with ati cards
[23:55] <schnitz> not that I'm comparing
[23:56] <schnitz> tried, no answer...
[23:56] <schnitz> they're really involved with bigger problems though, so now offense :-)
[23:56] <schnitz> no
[23:56] <schnitz> lots of newbie question over there
[23:57] <delt> hehe =) there's almost always someone who can help there, regardless how "newbie" your question is
[23:58] <delt> just out of curiosity, what do you see in the settings manager -> "additional drivers" ?
[23:58] <schnitz> no I'm sure this is all good and I really want to learn it... my observation though is, as long as the GUI stuff works everything is fine, but when there is something unexpected, the learning curve is quite steap
[23:58] <schnitz> lemme see
[23:59] <schnitz> ah right
[23:59] <schnitz> been there 100 times
[23:59] <schnitz> so originally it had X.Org-X-Server
[23:59] <schnitz> AMd/ATI grafics driver
[23:59] <delt> this is an actual machine and not running in a VM, right? ie. you installed on an actual partition?
[23:59] <schnitz> that was the default
[23:59] <schnitz> yes
