studiobot<Sakrecoer> is it  at all possible to run Ardour and jack from a live USB or is it just my HW that doesn't want to?17:28
OerHeksas you need Ubuntu Studio Backports PPA, i guess running live is a mindbreaker17:32
OerHeksand that would require tons of memory17:32
OerHeksno swap ..17:32
studiobot<Sakrecoer> i have some sort of remembrance of doing it before, but i think when i did, i also created a persistent USB following some docs i can't find anymore and it didn't work on just any machine...18:04
EickmeyerOerHeks: Sakercoer is the former project leader of Ubuntu Studio.18:05
Eickmeyer@Sakrecoer: My guess is your hardware. Running 19.04, right?18:05
EickmeyerOerHeks: The backports PPA is optional for 18.10 and 19.04, required for 18.04.18:05
studiobot<Sakrecoer> Yes 19.0418:07
studiobot<Eickmeyer> @Sakrecoer [Yes 19.04], My guess is your hardware then, combined with Controls's lack of firewire support. iirc you use Firewire?18:08
studiobot<Sakrecoer> Not on this laptop: no firewire18:08
studiobot<Eickmeyer> Running an external interface?18:08
studiobot<Sakrecoer> Just built in audio thing... Intel something. Not sure18:08
studiobot<Sakrecoer> No external gear18:09
studiobot<Eickmeyer> Super interesting now. Check alsamixer, all the usual suspects?18:09
studiobot<Sakrecoer> Yeah, I tried most of the things I could think of.18:09
studiobot<Eickmeyer> :/18:10
studiobot<Sakrecoer> My HW isn't very exotic I think, but there might be something there... Either way, I'll try again and report logs at some point.18:11
studiobot<Eickmeyer> I've never had an issue with jack failing to connect to my internal hardware.18:11
studiobot<Eickmeyer> I mean, if Pulse can do it, ,so can Jack, at least in theory.18:11
studiobot<Eickmeyer> You used Carla or Patchage to make the connections, or at least ensure they're there?18:12
studiobot<Sakrecoer> For a minute a thought OerHeks was an alias for ovenwerks lol. Thanks for addressing my question Oerherks!18:12
studiobot<Sakrecoer> Jack didn't even bother starting. Not with anything.18:12
studiobot<Eickmeyer> Haha! Yeah, two different people. OerHeks is someone I recruited from the main #ubuntu channel to help in here since he is also a musician and runs Ubuntu Studio, at least on occasion.18:12
studiobot<Sakrecoer> Tried with ardour, qtjackctl, ubuntustudio control, Carla... Everything18:13
studiobot<Eickmeyer> So, then Jackd is the culpret.18:13
studiobot<Eickmeyer> I'm not at home and don't have my Studio laptop with me, nor do I have something I can run a live ISO from, so I can't check this myself. :/18:13
studiobot<Sakrecoer> No worries. :) In at case without the error logs we can just guess, and I'm done trying for today :) I'll try again for sure and keep the logs that time18:14
studiobot<Sakrecoer> Thanks for your response Erich!18:15
studiobot<Eickmeyer> @Sakrecoer [Thanks for your response Erich!], Anytime, Set. :)18:16
studiobot<Sakrecoer> Saludos from Spain where I'm currently chillaxing! ❤️ Was thinking about making some databeats since I'm on holiday, but is testing is fun too, so I'll might be back soon with logs.18:17
studiobot<Eickmeyer> Oh fun! Yeah, I'm sure OvenWerks would like to see those logs. I'll do some testing on my own, too. We found a problem with xfce4-volumed that's been causing some headaches, so we had to copy Xubuntu's panel and widgets to mitigate that. Next step is to upload those changes to Eoan to test.18:19
studiobot<Sakrecoer> Awesome! Before I log off I have to say the look and feel has greatly improved. :) My humble and tiny opinion is that live booting production environment is a pretty low-prio. I wasn't really expecting it work just after dd'ing the image to my drive, but it would have impressed even more.18:30

OvenWerkssakrecoer: I am pretty sure I have always been able to get jack running from the live iso. I also use DD to put the iso on a usb stick.19:44
OvenWerksThe only problem I have ever had with an Intel HDA audio device is that jack sometimes will not start with buffer sizes less than 128... That is 64/2 would crash jackd, but 128/2 would be fine.19:46
OvenWerksMy old usb1.1 audio device would do 64/2 fine on the same machine19:47
OvenWerksFirst thing is always try 1024 as buffer size.... except hdmi... I have heard try them even higher maybe 2048 or 4096.19:48
OvenWerksIf you are not using -controls to start jackd, always do killall -9 jackdbus jackd first.19:48
studiobot<Eickmeyer> @Sakrecoer ^20:10
studiobot<Sakrecoer> Thanks ovenwerks. I didn't even try below 512 tbh. I did however increase from there. I'll send logs next time :)20:15
studiobot<Sakrecoer> (thanks for the ping Erich)20:16
studiobot<Eickmeyer> @Sakrecoer [(thanks for the ping Erich)], :D20:17
studiobot<Sakrecoer> I'm mad at telegram for not just highlighting my nickname without @20:21
OvenWerkssakrecoer: Can you set your client to highlight custom text bits?20:22
* OvenWerks does this with irssi to catch oven, release, osc, etc20:23
OvenWerksI can assign a different colour to each text of interest20:24
OerHeksHymne-di-dodo-morte20:26
studiobot<Sakrecoer> Yes, my irssi is logging it. But it needs my ssh keys20:29
studiobot<Sakrecoer> Which means I would read it in many days in the future.... Though before I accuse telegram of not delivering information I want, I will explore it's settings further20:30
studiobot<Sakrecoer> ^ ovenwerks20:30
OvenWerksI thought people would use telegram if it was better than irc... not worse ;)20:31
studiobot<Sakrecoer> Haha. I just use it because many ppl I know use it. A bit like the reasons I use  IRC if you ask me: social power is always in the hands of social people20:32
* OvenWerks is not very social...20:32
studiobot<Sakrecoer> On irc you are. Also OvenWorks is awesome Linux ausiou developer20:33
studiobot<Sakrecoer> Audio*20:33
OvenWerksI do ok20:34
studiobot<Sakrecoer> You do you, which is rare and valuable! Good night y'all!20:34
