[00:43] hey all, is there a tutorial for the cool US tools? [06:47] Nunca consegui dirigir sonido a los speakers, Scarlet 6i6 está certificada para Linux t Ubuntu. Complete audio 6 también pero nada [06:50] He probado de mil . Mo gustaría dejar Windows de lado. Peroódicamente lo intento exaustivamente con nuevas configuraciones y trucos aprendidos en la red. NADA. DESISTO [06:52] ADIOS?.....adios [06:54] You can hear me here; https://soundcloud.com/drodemotta [06:55] Returning to windows. Damm [13:37] { [17:43] Hello peeps am unable to setup jack [17:44] i'm wondering if maybe i am retarded [17:44] anny help whould be appreciated [17:44] i am altho reluctand to share my screen with strangers on the webs [17:45] also the utility to map the buttons on my wacom tablet is not working [17:52] sinewav [17:52] can u helps me get jack workingz [17:52] hello [17:52] i dont undertand why it was to be so complicated [17:53] I don't know much about Jack. What kind of problem are you having? [17:53] If i whould know what the problem is i whould't be here /D [17:53] I cant get anny sound out of it [17:54] my interface shows up twice [17:54] Are you launching it from the command line or Qjackctl? [17:54] There is no audio output [17:54] I'm using Qjack [17:55] you are using an external or internal interface? [17:55] External [17:55] which model? [17:55] its an audio dj 8 from NI [17:55] AH [17:55] hold on. [17:56] i can get my firefox strem to output thru my interface in sound settings [17:56] so i know its not a driver issue [17:56] but i dont think that uses jack [17:57] First, it that device should show up twice. There should be two separate audio channels. Is one marked 1/2 and the other marked 3/4? [18:01] The Native Instruments gear should have class-compliant audio interfaces, which means you should have basic functionality, but special features might not be available and are sometimes dependent on the OS and native software. [18:01] One is listed as hW 2 [18:01] no sound comes from either of them? [18:01] and t he other one as hw 2,0 [18:01] well i don't exactly now how to test that :D [18:02] as i'm also not sure if midi is working [18:02] so, what happens when you start Jack from Qjackctl? [18:02] Do you get an error? [18:05] brb, laundry... [18:09] hello i'm back [18:09] system froze [18:11] Shoudn't i just have the option to routz AUdio DS 8 channel 4 to chanel D ? [18:13] Sometimes Jack gets the numbers backwards. [18:13] That's how it is on my system. My 1/2 is actually my C/D [18:14] What are you trying to play through Jack? system sounds? [18:14] In audio the ony writable clients are Pulse audio jack sourse and system [18:14] audio dj 8 is not even mentioned [18:14] right now i have qsynth running [18:15] Which version of Qjackctl? [18:15] but i wanted to set up an effect on channel 3 [18:15] THe defaut one [18:15] that ships with studio [18:16] Sorry, I actually don't have Ubuntu Studio 16.04 installed right now. I'm using MATE until certain XFCE bugs get fixed. [18:16] buggs like ? [18:16] In the setup area, have you chosen an interface? [18:17] yes [18:17] which one? [18:17] I picked Hw:Audio8DJ2 [18:18] OK good. But the device doesn't show up in the "connections" list under audio? [18:18] nope [18:18] I see. [18:19] so nothing can be done then i gues ? [18:19] And you don't get any messages when you start Qjackctl? There is a message window that should give you information [18:19] nope [18:20] only the JAck audio connection kit(default) start's [18:20] well that is very strange! [18:21] Ok, I haven't experienced a problem like this, but there are people better equipped to help. Are you familiar with linuxmusicians.com? [18:21] Nope [18:21] i'll go ask over there then [18:21] It is a very active community. Pretty much the place to go for help with Linux Audio (because Linux Audio is a FUCKING NIGHTMARE) [18:21] whould you have anny idea how to get gtk-apps.org/content/show.php/Wacom+Control+Panel?content=104309 working :D [18:22] Yes, do that. Explain that you can choose the interface in Qjackctl but it does not show up in the connections window. [18:22] OH GOD don't get me started on the WACOM problems.... [18:23] The Wacom control panels only seems to work well under the Gnome Desktop Environment, not XFCE. [18:24] Fuck my life [18:24] this seemed so ideal :'( [18:24] Although, the XFCE Wacom support is fairly good compared to other Linux distributions. [18:24] Yeah, Linux is fucking terrible for art and media. It sucks, I'm sorry. [18:24] i dont wanne type shit to configure [18:24] yeah but it runs houdini better then windows :D [18:25] and audio drivers are better [18:25] plug and play whould be nice tho [18:25] :D [18:25] I actually use Windows audio software in Linux under WINE [18:25] i'd like to learn to program and help with that [18:25] why not use bitwig ? [18:26] Bitwig seems great, I just haven't bought it yet. Too accustomed to my old software. [18:26] I'm crying that ableton doesn't make a linux port :'( [18:26] bitwig only has 1 year of free updates [18:27] Bitwig is made from people who worked for Ableton and wanted to go in a different direction. [18:27] From what I can tell it's superior. [18:27] But Ableton is old and entrenched in culture. [18:28] From what i can tell bitwig just lookes better at first sight but isn't as deep and the ui is one big cluttery mess [18:29] Weird! When I tried the Bitwig demo I found it intuitive. That's just how software is. It's the advice I give to everyone looking to get into music production. I say "download every demo you can and pick the one that make the most sense since that all to basically the same thing." [18:30] *they all [18:30] (yeah demo .... not friendly naborhood pirated software) [18:31] until you go for a full release ofc [18:31] you cant learn a workflow on the demo [18:32] Also, if you are interested in a clear-headed but kind of depressing read, Louigi Verona wrote an article recently about the state of Linux Audio: [18:32] http://www.louigiverona.com/?page=projects&s=writings&t=linux&a=linux_linuxaudio [18:34] Well im mainly here for houdini [18:34] audio is secondairy [18:34] i just wanne have bitwig running when i wanne fool around [18:34] OK good. Linux is a tough platform for creative types unless you are using Blender. [18:36] well i also want just want to generally learn linux [18:36] as i want to go into ops for linux [18:36] but i know nothing for now [18:44] It's a good thing to know. I jumped into Linux back in 2010 without any knowledge of IT and Programming, but now that's my job, and I got it because I know enough about how to configure Linux servers. So that's cool. Good luck to you! [19:18] thx [19:18] how'd you learn ? [19:19] Btw xsetwacom set is not recognising either HDMi-1-1 or Head 1 It returns Unknown parameter name ... [19:30] I learned Linux by coming up with increasingly complicated projects to work on. Eventually I took a certificate class at the local college that went over Linux servers and that helped out a lot. [19:31] Here is a good website for basics: https://linuxjourney.com/ [19:31] THx [19:31] Does gnome eat more reqaurces then lxde [19:32] i realy need to map my tablet to one screen and xsetwacom aint working for shit [19:33] Really, there isn't much difference between the popular DEs like MATE, XFCE, GNOME, and Cinnamon. LXDE is very light and KDE is heavier on average, but not by much. [19:33] lxde [19:33] * [19:33] yeah i'm not going to switch to something that uses X4 ram [19:34] But why wont this shit recognise HDMI-1-1 as an output [19:34] The biggest problem in Linux isn't how much RAM a DE uses, but how well it performs with shitty video chipsets. [19:34] Some compositors are worse than others [19:34] are you referring to gpu ? [19:35] Yeah, GPU. You might want to check the "Additional Drivers" utility and see of there are drivers that will help you with the HDMI problem. [19:35] I already switched to the nvidea drivers [19:36] i have a reletivly recent gpu [19:36] 860M if i'm not wrong [19:37] Ah. Well, I'm not sure what else to do about it other than combing through https://ubuntuforums.org/ [19:37] Also, the Linux Mint forums are usually better than the Ubuntu ones. [19:38] Curiously, Mint has been slightly more popular than Ubuntu for several years. [19:38] Mint is the worst peace of shit looking distro in tha universe :D [19:38] ha [19:39] Its more poplular becouse people use it for their grandparents [19:39] so it gets used on family members who will alwatys be nubs [19:39] yeah I haven't used it in years. Although thanks to Mint I'm no using Ubuntu with the MATE Desktop. [19:39] So for each person that knows linux that one is prob used +1 [19:39] now using* [19:40] But its so fuuugly ? [19:40] MATE? [19:40] Yeah it's ugly. [19:40] But I don't need much in a DE. I just need things out of my way. [19:42] I'll most likely switch back to Ubuntu Studio when 18.04 is realeased. [19:42] I've been avoiding Thunar because there are some serious bugs that need fixing. (They aren't quite fixed yet). [19:43] Tried out the latest release? .11 fixed some major crashing issues. [19:43] Oj unit [19:43] cans you help me [19:44] i cant set my wacom tablet to use only my right screen [19:44] system returns unknown parameter value when i assign it to HEAD-1 [19:44] No I haven't, but I'll definitely check out .11 when I see it in a distro. [19:46] (server display config in nvidea server display is empty [21:28] Hi everyone - Pete here from NZ. First time using IRC, so I hope I get the netiquette right! Does anyone here know about bootloader problems, because my computer froze partway through a software update and messed up GRUB so now it just gives me a > prompt and I'm having to boot from a Live USB of the latest release? [21:29] Sounds like a case of live cd, chroot in, grub-install and update grub. [21:33] Thanks, Unit193. Will it make any difference that I'm on Xenial and that the Software Updater gave me what it called a "partial upgrade" to get over previous problems it had during an update? [21:41] I don't use "Software Updater", presumably you're still on Xenial though, so in that case while I was chrooted in I'd complete the updates too. [21:59] Sounds like a good plan. I'm more of a skilled user than a sysadmin, so my knowledge is a bit sketchy: I've never chrooted before. I've got two volumes mounted from my damaged system: one small one that looks like it should be /boot, and one big one that looks like it should be root (/). What do you think I should do to chroot in, and what result should I expect? (Thanks so much for your help, by the way!) [22:02] You'll have to mount / in, say, /target/ then /boot in /target/boot, and since I'm lazy and don't want to do all the setup, I use a script for the bindmounting and chrooting in. [22:07] I don't suppose you could share your script, could you? [22:08] It's (patched) from the unpackaged arch-install-scripts package. Basically bindmounts dev, proc, sys, etc, devpts in. [22:09] studio-user782: I'll just generally link this now..: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Installing#Reinstalling_GRUB_2 [22:10] https://sigma.unit193.net/~unit193/arch-chroot [22:10] Oooh, right. Instructions! Nice choice. :D [22:10] :P [22:10] Forget I linked that one. :P [22:11] You two are awesome! [22:12] * Unit193 gives krytarik more points for actually linking normal instructions. [22:13] \o/ [22:14] That's great - I'm going to give that a go. :) [22:15] (Though that method isn't as fun. >_> ) [22:55] Hello [23:53] Hey, Unit193, I scrolled down until I found instructions that looked like they matched your method and I've repaired GRUB. It complained about a missing EFI directory, but I found it (/dev/sda1), mounted it under my chrooted /boot/efi and did the grub-install again with no errors reported. [23:53] Thanks again! [23:54] AH! UEFI! And glad you got it, and reported back. [23:54] "Welcome.
