| linuxpt2 | Hi, anyone around? | 01:54 |
|---|---|---|
| linuxpt2 | It's been many years since I have used Ubuntu Studio, does it still have a real-time kernel? | 01:56 |
| krytarik | linuxpt2: It never had a real-time kernel, but does have a lowlatency one. | 02:01 |
| linuxpt2 | Ah, thanks for clarifying. | 02:03 |
| linuxpt2 | Is Ubuntu Studio still worthwhile for musicians and multimedia work eg video eiditing etc? | 02:04 |
| linuxpt2 | I mean, compared to just using a normal distro eg Ubuntu standard or Mint etc | 02:04 |
| linuxpt2 | I ask as it had been many years since I used Linux distros so my knowledge is very rusty | 02:05 |
| linuxpt2 | and I have not kept up with distro progress for at elast 8 years | 02:06 |
| krytarik | linuxpt2: In short, I believe yes. Apart from the various apps and backends, and said lowlatency kernel, it also ships a few default settings and controls to improve specifically working with audio. | 02:15 |
| linuxpt2 | nice, thanks. I am primarily a musician but also will need to render and edit video | 02:17 |
| linuxpt2 | i assume if i use ubuntu studio, everything i was able to do in linux mint, i can do in ubuntu studio? | 02:17 |
| linuxpt2 | linux mint was the ubuntu variant with cinnamon | 02:18 |
| krytarik | linuxpt2: Linux Mint is an entirely different distro, but yes based on Ubuntu - so expect differences in the available software, of course - but generally, yes. | 02:26 |
| linuxpt2 | i just had a quick look around and the health of studio doesnt look too good.... | 02:28 |
| linuxpt2 | is it fizzling out? on use AND on contributors? | 02:28 |
| krytarik | linuxpt2: The project could need a few more contributors, yes. | 02:33 |
| linuxpt2 | are you a contributor? | 02:34 |
| krytarik | Yes. | 02:37 |
| linuxpt2 | Well, thanks. | 02:37 |
| krytarik | Sure. | 02:37 |
| linuxpt2 | What would happen if contribution stopped? | 02:38 |
| linuxpt2 | would studio be 'sunset'? | 02:38 |
| linuxpt2 | Also, what sort of help do you give and what kind of help is needed the most? | 02:40 |
| krytarik | linuxpt2: On the specifics, I'd advise you to talk to sakrecoer in #ubuntustudio-devel tomorrow (European time). And yeah, that's the same as with *all* projects, of course. | 02:44 |
| linuxpt2 | ok will do and thanks | 02:46 |
| linuxpt2 | i may be able to help going forard | 02:46 |
| krytarik | That'd be great. :) | 02:47 |
| linuxpt2 | yeah it seems like it - makes me sad to read studio is in need of contributors so much | 02:47 |
| linuxpt2 | but i guess it is kinda specialised variant and users will be few... people who could help will be even fewer | 02:48 |
| linuxpt2 | and i guess not many contribs would help studio if they dont even use it as users | 02:48 |
| krytarik | Well, I don't personally, and I still help. :P | 02:49 |
| linuxpt2 | What made you pick Studio to help out on then? | 02:49 |
| linuxpt2 | Over others i mean... | 02:49 |
| krytarik | I think it's I liked the people involved there, and I both saw the need for help, and myself in a position to provide it, too. | 02:53 |
| linuxpt2 | Ah, good on you. | 02:55 |
| linuxpt2 | I will try to speak with the person you mentioned in the dev room but if I dont, I will try to make a point doing it within the next weekish | 02:57 |
| krytarik | Sure, thanks! | 02:57 |
| linuxpt2 | it would be good for me to at least ask and understand what are the most needed areas of help | 02:57 |
| linuxpt2 | I would love to be able to offer coding help but currently my health isnt the best so I would be more harm than good developing | 02:58 |
| linuxpt2 | but I certainly can manage other help | 02:58 |
| krytarik | In distro work, coding isn't really the most important or used skill - there are many other things that are way more prevalent. | 03:06 |
| linuxpt2 | im going after this but to end what would you say are the main things? | 03:10 |
| krytarik | Not sure really - there is just so much stuff that seems equally important, except coding. :P | 03:13 |
| krytarik | linuxpt2: Nice talking to you. I'll go to bed too then - good night! :) | 03:23 |
| linuxpt2 | Hello all | 11:54 |
| linuxpt2 | Are there any contribs around? | 11:56 |
| linuxpt2 | Ignore me, just realised... wrong channel. | 11:56 |

| studio-user668 | hello | 15:37 |
| studio-digi | Anyone know if we can use the Android SDK 2.2 on Ubuntu Studio? | 16:50 |
| studio-digi | If so what the terminal command would be to download the 32bit libraries. | 16:50 |
| studio-digi | This is what they reccomend from the site "sudo apt-get install libc6:i386 libncurses5:i386 libstdc++6:i386 lib32z1 lib32bz2-1.0" | 16:51 |
| studio-digi | although this does not work. | 16:51 |
| studio-digi | once this runs it returns error code "Couldn't find any package by glob 'lib32bz2-1.0' & 'Couldn't find any package by regex 'lib32bz2-1.0' | 16:53 |
| studio-digi | Any ideas? | 16:54 |
| studio-digi | I would prefer to use my linux distro as i have this configured as my main boot. Any ideas, anyone there? | 17:01 |
| studio-digi | Well i guess no one is on at this time. | 17:05 |
| centoper | Hello, any one knows if US 16.10 is releasing updates to Ardour 5.0? | 21:41 |
| krytarik | !latest | centoper | 21:42 |
| ubottu | centoper: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. | 21:42 |
| centoper | krytarik, ubottu, Thanks! | 21:44 |
| krytarik | !info ardour | 21:44 |
| ubottu | ardour (source: ardour): the digital audio workstation. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:5.0~dfsg-2 (yakkety), package size 7945 kB, installed size 30671 kB | 21:44 |
