[05:44] <link2x> I hope this is the right place to be. I'm trying to replace an Ubuntu 15.04 install with Ubuntu Studio 15.04 and it's failing at the Grub2 install.
[05:45] <link2x> I'm on a Windows 8 -> 10 laptop with UEFI on, and would like to keep my windows partitions, so a full wipe isn't an option.
[16:32] <Skeng> Allright guys I have a problem ! :)
[16:35] <Skeng> I just install Ubuntu Studio on my lenovo notebook and everything somes great but the sound .... Actully went i go on youtube, soundcloud or event try to pley a mp3 on my computer, the file load everething seams ok it looks ike it will play.. but no. I got no sounds and the players are stuck on play but no time running.
[16:36] <Skeng> have something to sugest me ? :)
[16:43] <Skeng> be back in 2 min
[16:45] <Skeng> Ok I have reboot and choose the ubuntu option and not ubuntu (lowlentacy) and it works! i got sound and everything
[16:46] <Skeng> So what is exactly lowlentacy and why playing video/sound donc work in it you think ?
[16:57] <zequence> Skeng: It's not related to the kernel
[16:58] <zequence> If you have jack running on the same sound card as pulseaudio (the regular desktop audio system), you need to make pulseaudio use jack as the output
[16:59] <zequence> This only works if you have the packages jackd and pulseaudio-module (installed by default), and you are starting jackdbus, not jackd (default on qjackctl)
[17:00] <zequence> The other option is to just make sure to not use jack while using desktop audio (browsers and other applications that have standard audio features)
[17:02] <Skeng> Ha so maybe it was the jack becaus it was running
[17:02] <Skeng> ok thx
[17:02] <Skeng> but what is the difference between lowlentacy and "normale" boot ?
[17:12] <lrs> I have a problem, maybe not so much in connection to Ubuntu. I broke my audiojack and need to replace it. And I have two choices 1) buy a usb soundcard (with support for linux) 2) Buy a wireless headphone with bluetooth and a bluetooth adapter?. Problem is I dont know what I should buy? Some of the remote headphones still need a 3.5mm jack, and the usb soundcards im not sure if they work with ubuntu... What should I do?
[17:38] <zequence> Skeng: The lowlatency kernel makes it possible to run jack with lower latency without xruns
[17:39] <zequence> Skeng: Lower Frames/Period gives you lower latency, meaning the time it takes for sound to be processed in the computer until it is sent to the soundcard outputs
[17:39] <zequence> You need low latency in any sitation where you want to do live processing, such as playing a virtual instrument using a midi controller (keyboard)
[18:07] <syntroPi> I am having an audio issue on ubuntu gnome shell: the output volume slider is wildly around on its own which results in a stuttering output volume. Any ideas where the bug could hide?
[18:13] <syntroPi> is pulse audio considered to be stable on ubuntu?
[20:15] <syntroPi> if i just want to have a working audio, would it be recommended to install ubuntu studio instead of ubuntu gnome? i dont intend to do any audio stuff, i just want a stable audio output thats all
