[04:27] <jeffmr> OvenWerks, I think I found out why I couldn't check the mbox visibility with aplayer.  Because its aplay.
[07:25] <plex_dave> I am experiencing the strangest problem. I have an external enclosure with a big drive in it. Vanilla Ubuntu 18.04 no problems, plug the drive in and 5 seconds later it's mounted and ready to go. Studio 16.04 on another machine sometimes it mounts, sometimes it doesn't
[07:26] <plex_dave> Both machines are fairly new. Other devices all work just fine on both machines.
[07:26] <cfhowlett> that is a weird one!
[07:27] <plex_dave> When I ls /dev/ | grep sd with the drive unplugged, I have no sdb. Plug it in, there's an sdb. But when I go into the disk utility, the drive does not show up.
[07:27] <plex_dave> Tried all the ports on this laptop, tried the usb3 ports on the dock...
[07:27] <plex_dave> Same behavior.
[07:29] <plex_dave> Ran KDE Neon from a thumb drive and the external just mounts. Thought maybe I had done something to the user account, so I created a new user account and the drive either mounts or it doesn't on the new user account
[07:30] <plex_dave> Other than this though, Studio 16.04 has been a really sold base to install the KXStudio tools on top of. It never crashes.
[07:31] <cfhowlett> plex_dave, might be worth asking the #xubuntu channel
[07:32] <plex_dave> Oh I just came from there. lol
[07:32] <plex_dave> Nice folks :)
[18:27] <Sbur3> Any way to install Ubuntu Studio via a Network Install?
[18:29] <krytarik> I wouldn't think it's any different from the other flavors, yes.
[18:33] <Eickmeyer> Sbur3: https://www.ubuntu.com/download/alternative-downloads
[18:33] <Eickmeyer> Contains all of the flavors.
[18:33] <Sbur3> krytarik: Ok, then there is a twist on the original question ... I am trying to help a friend who knows less than nothing about computers.  The Ubuntu Studio that I installed on his laptop doesn't show the pulseaudio volume control.  Many thingshe should be able to see, he can't. And I want to help him from my house to reinstall Ubuntu Studio on his laptop via TeamViweer
[18:34] <Sbur3> Eickmeyer: Another question : can I do a network install of Ubuntu Studio 18.on HIS laptop from my desktop
[18:34] <Sbur3> 18.04*
[18:35] <Eickmeyer> You'd have to do some sort of network deployment which would require an advanced setup at both ends. Since Teamviewer requires a working desktop environment to run, you wouldn't be able to do this remotely.
[18:35] <Eickmeyer> The netinstall doesn't have a DE.
[18:36] <Eickmeyer> For that advanced level of help, I'd try #ubuntu. Remember, Ubuntu Studio _is_ Ubuntu, just customized.
[18:38] <Sbur3> Eickmeyer: Thx for the info and help.
[18:38] <Sbur3> Bye everyone
