ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <philipz> welcome @EdmondLogan03:12
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <philipz> welcome Jerry L03:37
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Jerry L> Thanks!  I've been using Kubuntu since 09.04.  I've been running 20..04 since early January.03:37
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <philipz> presume all has been going well if you are running it as your daily driver03:38
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Jerry L> Running perfectly!  It's setting on top of BTRFS, which is also faultless!03:39
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <philipz> so didnt want to try the experimental zfs03:40
valoriegood to hear, @Jerry L03:40
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Jerry L> I am going to download the daily image and run it on a USB stick03:40
valorieI've been onboard since perhaps 10.0403:41
valorienot yet on 20.04 but I will probably upgrade my travel computer soon03:41
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <philipz> great. please do try out the Kubuntu testcases and report your findings.03:41
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Jerry L> Sorry, misread it.  I putz around with fuse-zfs and decided it was too complidoged for a desktop, and required too much memory to take advantage of its strong points.03:41
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Soul_Predator> Hi! Is there a way to know about the list of new "Kubuntu 20.04" features considering that I haven't used the previous versions?06:02

javier35Hello everyone. I just read the article about testing UbuntuStudio next release. I went to the testing tracker... Is it the "Focal Daily" Milestone?16:49
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <philipz> yes Focal16:50
javier35Then I see "Ubuntu Studio DVD amd64", "Upgrade Ubuntu Studio amd64" and "Upgrade Ubuntu Studio i386". Which one for a new install on my test LapTop?16:52
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <philipz> the first one16:53
javier35Final question. I have an old laptop with 4 GB Ram and 2 cores @ 2.0 GHz aprox from around 2010-2011. Is it ok? I will be using music production tools only like Ardour and LV2 plugins.16:56
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <philipz> yes it should be fine16:58
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <philipz> @Eickmeyer16:59
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <philipz> are javier35's specs fine?16:59
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Reinaldo_Espinosa> I caught the flu, I do not have internet at home, I hope to recover to be able to test xubuntu 20.04 (re @philipz: yes it should be fine)17:00
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <philipz> @Reinaldo_Espinosa get better soon and stay safe17:01
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Reinaldo_Espinosa> I will. (re @philipz: @Reinaldo_Espinosa get better soon and stay safe)17:01
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Reinaldo_Espinosa> thanks17:01
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <philipz> javier35: the ubuntu studio's website recommends 4gb ram and 10gb of space, so you should be fine17:03
Eickmeyerjavier35 left about 5 minutes ago.17:04
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <philipz> okay thanks17:05
lotuspsychjetelegram doesnt show joins/parts?17:05
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <philipz> no it doesnt. irc doesnt see join and parts from telegram17:06
Eickmeyer@philipz Also, 2 cores is fairly underspecced for Ardour. While the OS will run, people need to consult individual applications for their intended use case.17:06
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <philipz> thanks for the info.17:07
wxlunrelated but if you have any suggestions (or just wnat to retoot) that would be appreciated https://mastodon.art/@ubuntustudio17:12
Eickmeyerwxl: Good idea, I'll talk to our mastodon person (our art lead) about that.17:13
wxloh jeez wrong link anyways XD17:14
wxlbut glad i could help XD17:14
wxlhttps://kitty.town/@wxl/10389169577367916617:14
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Eickmeyer> @azbulutlu Can you see the history just above?17:14
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <philipz> the group is set to be able to see history17:15
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Eickmeyer> Perfect. Thanks, @philipz17:15
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Eickmeyer> She'll see it eventually.17:15
Eickmeyerwxl: I can chime-in from my experience. I have a Behringer Uphoria UMC404HD paired with Ardour and a Behringer X-Touch Mini. The combination gives you a virtual mixer of sorts that can use just about any audio plugin imaginable. I've used it for vocal effects in live audio.17:17
Eickmeyerwxl: Most USB mixers only output 2-channel stereo.17:17
wxlEickmeyer: i know! i feel like that mix of features in that zoom livetrak is a no-brainer. but they jam so much stuff in there that it just ends up being kind of expensive for just that17:18
wxlEickmeyer: although i really like the fact that it (a) runs on batteries and (b) has a built in recorder17:19
Eickmeyerwxl: I'll have to screenshare with you sometime to show you what I mean.17:19
wxlEickmeyer: that x-touch looks like the kind of thing i've wanted for a long time17:20
EickmeyerThe entire setup, minus a laptop, is only about $200 ($150 for the interface, $50 for the midi controller)17:20
EickmeyerI'd love a full-size x-touch, but the x-touch mini is very budget friendly.17:20
wxlthat said i'm not the world's biggest behringer fan but hey17:20
EickmeyerThe only caviat is that the configuration software only runs on Windows.17:21
Eickmeyerwxl: The interface uses Midas preams, so don't let the Behringer name fool you.17:21
Eickmeyer*preamps17:21
wxloh nice17:21
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <azbulutlu> @Eickmeyer yes...17:22
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <azbulutlu> *tries to understand what this is*17:22
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Eickmeyer> @azbulutlu This is the new testing collaboration room for all the flavors.17:22
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <azbulutlu> awesome!!!17:22
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Eickmeyer> @philipz is leading this charge.17:22
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <azbulutlu> sorry I was out shopping for family.17:23
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <azbulutlu> let me read this monster backlog so that I am not aimlessly chatting17:24
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <azbulutlu> wxl anything you want me to retoot dm me on eylul or ubuntustudio. I am not always on top of the tags but we have emails that comes to me and @Eickmeyer every time someone dms or mentions us17:26
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Eickmeyer> @azbulutlu You didn't miss much. :)17:32
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <azbulutlu> good. let me know.17:33
wxloooh i get the follows :)17:41
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <azbulutlu> xD17:42
wxlsoon i might have some more audio stuff to show off, too. i got this cute mini modular synth (bastl kastle) i've been playing with17:44
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <azbulutlu> looking forward to it.17:44
wxlof course now i have to completely re-do everything with this fancy new laptop that's gone the way of apple and gotten rid of the darn mic in17:45
wxli might just end up getting out the old machine but i think it's still on like 14.10 or something XD17:46
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <azbulutlu> :)17:47
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <alexandre_0> Hey guys, I've been trying to install Kubuntu 18.04/20.04 on an encrypted btrfs partition, but I can't get the installer to do it. In Debian/Mint/Manjaro it's really easy to create such partitioning. Am I missing something? Should I report it as a bug in the installer?19:08
-queuebot:#ubuntu-quality- Builds: Ubuntu Budgie Desktop amd64 [Focal Beta] (20200327.1) has been added19:12
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Jerry L> I installed the 3/27/20 Kubuntu 20.04 image (sum checked OK) on a 32GB USB stick with the intention of installing Kubuntu 20.04   with ZFS as the <ROOT_FS>  on another 64GB USB stick.  My proble was the the ZFS option (experimental or otherwise) was missing from the manual disk install panel.   😳19:45
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Jerry L> Alexandre   Have you checked this?  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManualFullSystemEncryption19:48
valorie@Jerry L we were unwilling to add that option for the LTS19:55
valorieperhaps next LTS it will be well-tested enough19:56
valoriethis chan is about testing however, not user support19:56
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <alexandre_0> Thanks for pointing that out Jerry L. I didn't know about that. But what I'm trying to achieve is a much more basic root only encrypted partition.20:06
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <alexandre_0> The installer already does that, but with logical volumes only. I was able to install "kubuntu-desktop" on an encrypted btrfs, using an ubuntu mini ISO. The TUI makes it a breeze. But it's really not ideal having to download everything in every new install.20:09
valoriewhy not just upgrade?20:10
valorieI've been upgrading for years with no issues20:10
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <alexandre_0> Wouldn't it be more beneficial to the user base to have it properly implemented in the installer?20:18
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <RikMills> Please file a bug requesting it, if there is not already one. (re @alexandre_0: Wouldn't it be more beneficial to the user base to have it properly implemented in the installer?)20:21
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <alexandre_0> I was about to, but decided to check with you guys if it was ok first. I'll do it right now.20:24
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Sick_Rimmit> Hmmm does Testdrive still function correctly ?20:36
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Sick_Rimmit> Just pulled Kubuntu into the cache, hit launch and now it says cache's are empty20:36
valoriewhat is testdrive?20:38
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Sick_Rimmit> It lets you Test the Nightly Builds20:39
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Sick_Rimmit> It's a small Python App that holds ISO's in cache, and lets you zsync changes on a dilay basis20:39
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Sick_Rimmit> So you don't have to download the whole ISO after each build20:39
valoriehmmm, ok20:43
valoriezsync does that....20:43
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Sick_Rimmit> I believe so. It's been a few years since I used Testdrive.20:43
valorieI've not heard of it20:44
valoriealways just used zsync20:44
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Sick_Rimmit> I've just restarted it, and I'm downloading the Kubuntu ISO into the cache to try it again.20:44
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Sick_Rimmit> fingers crossed 😃20:44
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <philipz> Test drive was mentioned in the xubuntu announcement20:47
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Sick_Rimmit> Hopefully, It's gonna work out this time. Jolly handy tool20:47
-queuebot:#ubuntu-quality- Builds: Ubuntu Studio DVD amd64 [Focal Beta] (20200327) has been added21:13
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Sick_Rimmit> Hmmm... no joy. I think Testdrive is broken, Launch fails, and Sync causes it to crash..21:16
valorie:(21:19
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Sick_Rimmit> Looks like it's not had any maintenance since 2016.. according to LP21:20
Eickmeyer@Sick_Rimmit: I wrote a set of bash scripts that can do all that.21:25
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Sick_Rimmit> Nice, are there available from somewhere ?21:26
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Eickmeyer> https://github.com/eeickmeyer/UbuntuDailySync21:26
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Eickmeyer> Actually, it just keeps the isos sync'd.21:27
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Sick_Rimmit> Excellent 👁 looking now21:27
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Sick_Rimmit> Ah ha these look cool, thanks @Eickmeyer21:32
ubuntutestingbot[telegram] <Eickmeyer> No prob, @Sick_Rimmit . The individual scripts for each flavor can be run independently of the master script, so it's fairly versatille.21:34
