[20:19] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer[m]: from the responce we got from Sammy, It is obvious that 19.10 is already running things from /etc/xdg/autostart/ as on the fly systemd units. (systemd does not deal with redirection at all < << >> > | &)
[20:20] <OvenWerks> So there was no logfile for him to find.
[20:22] <OvenWerks> still I find it odd that the jackdbus logfile shows "setting parameter 'drivers':'alsa':'period' to value "1024"" and then when started shows: "configuring for 48000Hz, period = 16 frames (0.3 ms), buffer = 2 periods"
[20:23] <OvenWerks> The best most HDA devices (bultin) is 128/2 (maybe 64/3?)
[20:25] <OvenWerks> the best any USB device can do is 32/3 (maybe 32/2 with xruns) as USB is limited to 1 ms apart transfers.
[20:28] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer[m]: I am in the middle of redoing logging for autjack to not use external redirection.
[20:29] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer[m]: this is a part of making autojack work properly from systemd :P
[20:31] <OvenWerks> autojack still keeps running after session end and I am thinking that I need two systemd units to make this work right. One to start and one to stop. I think I need the one to stop anyway for the case that autojack is started by -controls.
[20:33] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer[m]: I am interducing log levels... right now it is hard set to "debug" with lots of output. but I think standard will be warn or info.
[20:33] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer[m]: debug level will be on the system tab.
[20:34] <OvenWerks> (when I get that far)
[20:35] <OvenWerks> After that I need to make tablet at least do as much as the GUI shows. :)
[20:36] <OvenWerks> After that... (maybe part way through) I will change the GUI to have reasonable period depending on the device selected.
[20:38] <OvenWerks> (32 for USB, 64 for internal MB audio, 16 for all else... with a warning)
[21:40] <Eickmeyer[m]> OvenWerks: Ack.
[21:41] <Eickmeyer[m]> OvenWerks: (was driving)
[21:44] <Eickmeyer[m]> OvenWerks: Might be a good thing to make a note that buffers/period should be set to 3 for USB devices, just to alleviate confusion.
[21:47] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer[m]: once the buffer is above 32, 2 seems to work ok.
[21:47]  * OvenWerks has had no problems with usb devices at 64/2
[21:48] <Eickmeyer[m]> That would be an edge case then. I honestly wouldn't trust it.
[21:50] <Eickmeyer[m]> OvenWerks: You once told me a name you had in mind for -controls if it were ported to other distros, but I forgot what that was.
[21:53] <OvenWerks> prolly just audio-controls.... but it is starting to move beyond that.
[21:54] <OvenWerks> However, If I was to break it off as a separate package, I might remove the tablet stuff and make a separate package too.
[21:54] <OvenWerks> I could also just call the whole thing autojack.
[21:54] <OvenWerks> because it is more about jack than just audio.
[21:57] <Eickmeyer[m]> OvenWerks: Check PMs.
