 any KDElive questions here!?
[03:54] <veremitz> err .. how is that specific to ubuntu_studio ?
 GRRRRRrrrr
[03:58] <OvenWerks> Forgot the 'n' ;)
[03:59] <OvenWerks> but... not feeling videoish today
[16:00] <diebuntu> I have a problem with my volume keys (fn keys). When I first installed Ubuntu my volume keys were not working I followed the steps on a website and I got them to work.
[16:01] <diebuntu> After the first time I opened Ubuntu Studio Controls they stopped working completely again.
[16:03] <diebuntu> Also I had sound coming from the speakers but not from the headphones. Then after some meddling with the USC, I got the headphones working but the speakers stopped working, they said "unavailable".
[16:19] <Eickmeyer> diebuntu: Are you wanting to run Jack or PulseAudio right now?
[16:22] <diebuntu> I want to run PulseAudio all the time and Jack only when I'm using Ardour/Rakarrack/Hydrogen/Guitarix
[16:23] <Eickmeyer> diebuntu: Then, go into Ubuntu Studio Controls and click "Stop Jack". That will put things back to normal. Then, to get your volume control buttons back, open a terminal and type "killall xfce4-volumed && xfce4-volumed". That should do it.
[16:23] <Eickmeyer> It's a known bug with xfce4-volumed.
[16:23] <Eickmeyer> We (the Ubuntu Studio team) have no control over fixing it.
[16:24] <diebuntu> Thank you! That fixed that annoying bug.
[16:24] <Eickmeyer> diebuntu: You might have to do that every time you stop Jack.
[16:24] <Eickmeyer> I know I do.
[16:28] <diebuntu> I can't test the other thing yet, because I'm in a library, but I'll do it as soon as I can.
 I'll report from here, my Telegram account.
 Thank you!
[16:29] <Eickmeyer> Wait... @Go_Diego_Go == diebuntu?
 Yes, that's me.
[16:30] <Eickmeyer> @Go_Diego_Go: Cool! The other problem can be solved in AlsaMixer. It's an auto-mute thing.
[18:33] <studio-user080> help
[20:05] <georgios> hi!
[20:06] <georgios> i finally managed to install kubuntu-minimal, change kernel, add the ppa get some software and be ready to rock :P
[20:07] <OvenWerks> Could be... have you run ubuntustudio-controls on that?
[20:08] <georgios> yes but i dont understand something
[20:08] <OvenWerks> ok
[20:09] <georgios> at the moment the only device i want to use is a usb 2-way stereo thing
[20:09] <OvenWerks> ok.
[20:10] <georgios> it happens that my videocard has hdmi audio output. and this think puzzles me while configuring the controls
[20:10] <OvenWerks> Where is that presenting a problem
[20:11] <georgios> it appears everywhere
[20:12] <OvenWerks> Assuming a new -controls version, in the audio setup tab, The second pull down from the top (USB device to use as Jack master) should show your USB device.
[20:12] <georgios> it is not as expected when i am setting the master device
[20:13] <OvenWerks> do not worry about the master device at the top.
[20:13] <OvenWerks> That is for internal audio and if USB is selected as Jack master, it overrides the top.
[20:13] <georgios> ok then :)
[20:14] <OvenWerks> Also, you probably want to set Default PulseAudio Output Device to "Jack Master"
[20:15] <OvenWerks> If, for some reason, your USB card is not plugged in, then the top choice will be used instead until a USB device is detected.
[20:30] <goldtop> Hi_ completely new to irc, pls be patient! Ubu-studio user since 2014, Ubuntu loaded with ardour before that. I am a big fan but not a programmer, a prof musician by trade.
[20:32] <OvenWerks> good stuff
[20:32] <goldtop> My prob is getting firewire connection to RME fireface 800
[20:32] <OvenWerks> Ya, firewire is a problem these days.
[20:33] <OvenWerks> They have added alsa drivers for Firewire devices.
[20:33] <goldtop> Worked great w my audiofire, no prob
[20:33] <OvenWerks> From what I hear they don't do routing like the old ffado drivers do
[20:34] <goldtop> FFado wont connect- says dbus is busy
[20:35] <goldtop> 20:35:36 logginghandler: Could not communicate with the FFADO DBus service...
[20:36] <OvenWerks> Yes, the only way to use ffado is to first blacklist the alsa fw drivers and un-blacklist the ffado kernel modules
[20:37] <OvenWerks> I would like to get my hands on almost any FW device so I could try it out and figure out a mostly automatic work around.
[20:37] <goldtop> ooooh, sounds good but how do you do that? as i say i aint no programmer but not afraid..
[20:37] <goldtop> Where are you? Im in London
[20:38] <OvenWerks> Im on Vancouver Island in Canada
[20:40] <goldtop> Cool. Shame, cos I would have said play w mine!!
[20:43] <goldtop> Spent time in Ontario, 7 yrs in fact but never made it west. The ex spent a few years out on the island, and she always talked about it with great fondness
[20:44] <goldtop> Anyway back how do i go about getting ffado up or do i need a tech at my end?
[20:46] <OvenWerks> The fdirectory /etc/modprobe.d/ has a blacklist-firewire.conf in it.
[20:47] <OvenWerks> Actually Maybe look at: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/JACK_Audio_Connection_Kit#Firewire
[20:48] <goldtop> ok ta, ivestigating..
[20:48] <OvenWerks> It has a list of modules to blacklist. and suggests a file name for the file
[20:49] <OvenWerks>  then rename the blacklist_firewire.conf to *.fnoc
[20:49] <OvenWerks> I think that would disable it.
[20:51] <goldtop> Thats great, thanks. will let you know if it works!
