[22:54] <zeiseidk> Hello
[22:54] <zeiseidk> Is anyone here
[22:55] <Eickmeyer> !ask zeiseidk
[22:55] <Eickmeyer> !ask | zeiseidk
[22:56] <zeiseidk> I'm running ubuntustudio 18.04 with KXstudio installed. Some applications are really laggy. VST plugins (Helm/Zyn) UI are laggy, Signal UI is laggy. What to do?
[22:57] <Eickmeyer> zeiseidk: We do not support running Ubuntu Studio with KXStudio installed. That PPA has been known to reak havoc on Ubuntu Studio systems, and as such, we cannot support it.
[22:58] <zeiseidk> that is a shame. is there a way to get all the plugins from kxstudio, without installing the complete kxstudio packages?
[22:59] <Eickmeyer> What plugins do you need?
[22:59] <OvenWerks> which applications?
[22:59] <zeiseidk> all the vst plugins, effects, cadence and so on
[23:00] <OvenWerks> cadence will not run with Studio properly
[23:00] <Eickmeyer> Cadence, in particular, causes problems with Ubuntu Studio installs.
[23:00] <zeiseidk> ok, it works for me
[23:00] <Eickmeyer> We can't support it.
[23:00] <OvenWerks> you can replace it with ubuntustudio-controls
[23:00] <Eickmeyer> If you need support if using kxstudio, go to #kxstudio.
[23:00] <zeiseidk> ok, by uninstalling candence and the installing ubuntustudio-controls?
[23:01] <zeiseidk> then*
[23:01] <OvenWerks> yes.
[23:01] <zeiseidk> ok thanks
[23:01] <Eickmeyer> Yes, but only the newest version. If you'd like, you can add ppa:ubuntustudio-ppa/backports for that.
[23:01] <zeiseidk> perhaps I should di a clean reinstall
[23:01] <OvenWerks> I do not know why things are laggy normally that would be a video driver thing
[23:02] <Eickmeyer> You'll also need to clear out your ~/.pulse directory.
[23:02] <zeiseidk> oh yeah, I'll try activating my nvidia card
[23:02] <Eickmeyer> Cadence does some configuration stuff in that.
[23:03] <zeiseidk> thanks, I'll uninstall cadence and clear /.pulse
[23:04] <Eickmeyer> The developer of Cadence is even moving away from having Cadence, but I don't know what his plans are. The other tools (Catia, Claudia, etc.) are okay, but not Cadence itself.
[23:07] <zeiseidk> do I delete everything in /.pulse?
[23:08] <Eickmeyer> Yes.
[23:08] <Eickmeyer> That entire directory overrides pulseaudio's default configuration in Ubuntu.
[23:09] <Eickmeyer> if you run "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntustudio-ppa/backports" it will add our (unannounced) backports PPA which contains the latest version of Ubuntu Studio Controls. You'll find it much easier than Cadence.
[23:13] <zeiseidk> nice, I'll do that!
[23:30] <zenseidk> Hi, just wanted to say that I solved the gui lagging issue
[23:30] <zenseidk> I added backport repos and uninstalled cadence and updated (and enabled nvidia graphics driver and restarted)
[23:31] <zenseidk> thanks for your help
[23:35] <Eickmeyer> zenseidk: Glad we could help. :)
