| studiobot | <SamuelBanya> Hey there Ubuntu Studio Dev team. I spoke to Erich over the Lubuntu Dev IRC channel and he said that you guys might need some help with a Python installer. I've worked on several Python based projects seen on my site, www.musimatic.net and I've even helped automate my actual day job with a related webscraper. I was wondering if I | 16:06 |
| studiobot | could help with making the Python based installer a reality. | 16:06 |
| studiobot | <SamuelBanya> Feel free to @ ping me so I can see your related post here on Telegram and my email is SBanya@outlook.com | 16:06 |
| studiobot | <Eickmeyer> @SamuelBanya [Hey there Ubuntu Studio Dev team. I spoke to Erich over the Lubuntu Dev IRC chan …], Take a look at https://launchpad.net/ubuntustudio-installer. We have it ready for release into Disco, but we do eventually want to make it a Python-based installer. | 16:06 |
| studiobot | <SamuelBanya> Okay great | 16:07 |
| studiobot | <SamuelBanya> Ill take a look sometime this weekend | 16:07 |
| studiobot | <Eickmeyer> It has actually been a thing since forever, but we just got done retooling it. | 16:07 |
| studiobot | <SamuelBanya> Ah I see | 16:07 |
| studiobot | <SamuelBanya> Good to know | 16:07 |
| studiobot | <SamuelBanya> Yeah Lubuntu team uses launch pad with phabricator so I'm familiar with it | 16:07 |
| studiobot | <SamuelBanya> Do you guys use arc as well? | 16:07 |
| studiobot | <Eickmeyer> Cool. | 16:07 |
| studiobot | <Eickmeyer> Arc? | 16:08 |
| studiobot | <SamuelBanya> It's like git | 16:08 |
| studiobot | <Eickmeyer> No, we use git. | 16:08 |
| studiobot | <SamuelBanya> Do you guys have a main repo? | 16:08 |
| studiobot | <SamuelBanya> Great I prefer git anyway | 16:08 |
| studiobot | <Eickmeyer> https://launchpad.net/~ubuntustudio-dev | 16:08 |
| studiobot | <SamuelBanya> What is required for push access or basic commits | 16:08 |
| studiobot | <Eickmeyer> What's your launchpad account? | 16:08 |
| studiobot | <SamuelBanya> I probably have to follow a related guide and make an account right? | 16:08 |
| studiobot | <SamuelBanya> Id have to see | 16:09 |
| studiobot | <SamuelBanya> I linked it to my github | 16:09 |
| studiobot | <SamuelBanya> So it's probably the same as the one on my github aka github.com/sbanya | 16:09 |
| studiobot | <Eickmeyer> I think, until Disco is released, I'd rather you didn't push to it. We can make Python a goal for 19.10. | 16:09 |
| studiobot | <SamuelBanya> Thats fine too | 16:09 |
| studiobot | <SamuelBanya> When is 19.10 scheduled for release? Fall right? | 16:10 |
| studiobot | <Eickmeyer> @SamuelBanya [So it's probably the same as the one on my github aka github.com/sbanya], That's not it. Got a 404 from Launchpad. | 16:10 |
| studiobot | <SamuelBanya> I see | 16:10 |
| studiobot | <Eickmeyer> Yes. the number is yy.mm (Year/Month) | 16:10 |
| studiobot | <SamuelBanya> I probably linked my phab account then | 16:10 |
| studiobot | <SamuelBanya> Ah good to know. Makes sense | 16:11 |
| studiobot | <SamuelBanya> Thanks for clarifying | 16:11 |
| studiobot | <Eickmeyer> That's standard fo all Ubuntu flavors. | 16:11 |
| Eickmeyer | OvenWerk1: I found you someone to convert the code to Python. Figured after -installer gets updated in Disco would be the time to make major changes like that. | 16:21 |

| hb756 | Hello. I'm a developer, and I'm looking for something to do. I am an ubuntu studio user, so I thought I'd try to contribute. I've followed some of the directions on the ubuntu site for setting up, ssh and gpg keys, launchpad login, etc, but as far as actually getting started, I can't seem to find that specifically, or what's there seems out of date. Can anyone here point me in a direction? Thanks. | 22:23 |
| Eickmeyer | hb756: What do you wish to develop? | 22:24 |
| hb756 | well, I'm not sure exactly. I guess simple things at first just to get used to the process, using the right environment, packaging, .. so a simple text change or something to start off? | 22:26 |
| hb756 | I mean I really don't know what all is involved. Like, version control? I guess it's not git? | 22:26 |
| Eickmeyer | Perhaps. You do know that the Ubuntu Studio team doesn't develop any of the apps included, the user interface, or even the underlying operating system, right? | 22:27 |
| Eickmeyer | We do develop a couple of utilities for configuration (Ubuntu Studio Controls, Ubuntu Studio Installer), but that's about it. | 22:28 |
| Eickmeyer | For Ubuntu Studio, we do use git, but the rest of Ubuntu varies. | 22:28 |
| hb756 | I don't really know where the separation is. Sorry if I seem dense. | 22:28 |
| hb756 | So do I need to target a specific application, I guess, then? | 22:29 |
| Eickmeyer | There is no separation. Ubuntu Studio is merely a customized version of Ubuntu. The User Interface (Xfce) is mostly worked-on by the Xubuntu team, and the underlying operating system is the Ubuntu Core team with Canonical. | 22:29 |
| Eickmeyer | If you want to target a specific application, you need to work with the upstream developer. | 22:30 |
| Eickmeyer | Most of what we need with Ubuntu Studio, at this time, is documentation. | 22:30 |
| hb756 | Yeah, I really am looking to make coding contributions | 22:31 |
| hb756 | I guess I'm open to what exactly I would be doing. Just looking for a list of things that need to be done, then picking one I think I can do, an doing it. | 22:32 |
| Eickmeyer | Okay, then that's fairly easy. Do me a favor and look over https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio, scour around there, and let me know where you see need for improvement or changes. | 22:32 |
| Eickmeyer | If you feel you can contribute that way, let me know, and I'll add you to the team. :) | 22:32 |
| Eickmeyer | Then you'll be allowed to make changes directly to that wiki. | 22:33 |
| hb756 | I think you are talking about refining some documentation? | 22:34 |
| Eickmeyer | Yes, or adding some. | 22:34 |
| Eickmeyer | But, that's up to you. | 22:34 |
| hb756 | I think I might have misled you somehow. I am wanting to do software development contributions. | 22:35 |
| Eickmeyer | Okay. Do you have anything in mind? | 22:35 |
| hb756 | I was hoping that someone could suggest good first issues | 22:37 |
| Eickmeyer | Well, aside from everything I told you about, everything else is pretty much outside of the scope of the Ubuntu Studio project. | 22:37 |
| Eickmeyer | Some of us develop for other projects that are included. For instance, OvenWerk1 is an Ardour developer in addition to developing for Ubuntu Studio. I package Carla from KXStudio (working on getting it into Ubuntu right now). | 22:38 |
| Eickmeyer | Do you know of any applications you would like to see in Ubuntu Studio? | 22:38 |
| hb756 | Well actually, if it doesn't already exist, there should be a simple application that allows audio loops to easily be created. Example, I am a lead guitar player, and I need to record a progression to practice with. It's of course possible with ardour or audacity, but I'd like to see an app that is dedicated to that and simple to use for that. | 22:42 |
| hb756 | Like being able to guess very closely to keep the tempo correct at the loop point | 22:43 |
| hb756 | and be right more times than not | 22:43 |
| hb756 | keep a list of past saves | 22:44 |
| Eickmeyer | Well, we have SooperLooper... | 22:44 |
| hb756 | oh? I'll try it | 22:45 |
| Eickmeyer | It pretty much does exactly what you're describing. | 22:45 |
| hb756 | awesome | 22:45 |
| hb756 | Hey, not sure if this is the right place for this or not, but in trying to check out that software sooperlooper, now I'm running into the "how the heck do I get audio to it" problem, or if there is no audio, how is the best way to troubleshoot it problem. any guidance? | 23:19 |
| hb756 | It would be nice if qjactctl had some visual indication that this or that feed had some signal | 23:22 |
| hb756 | In audio, you have lights, or you can unplug something and put your finger on it to inject a small signal, and listen, or see the lights, you know? | 23:23 |
| celesteh | Hello, I use evolution for my email client and it'#s stopped showing any of my folders. MY email does show up in searches, so I'm fairly sure it's still getting the email, but I can't see it unless I search for it | 23:50 |
| Eickmeyer | !support | celesteh | 23:53 |
| ubottu | celesteh: This is the Ubuntu Studio development channel. Our official support channel is on #ubuntustudio. Also see http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=335 | 23:53 |
| celesteh | ty | 23:53 |
| Eickmeyer | celesteh: Additionally, I'd actually go to #ubuntu for that problem since it's not specific to Ubuntu Studio. | 23:53 |
| celesteh | cheers | 23:54 |
