[04:14] good morning ! some hardware geeks here willing to help out with Nvidia Fan speed controll ! GTX 1060 running super hot when on Power Level 4 [04:14] Lenovo Legion Y720 [04:16] I fixed this problem away by running nvidia xconfig comand creating new config file with coolbits enabled [04:23] but after 18.04 this was not working any more blackscreen after reboot [09:02] hello guys. im testing ubuntu studio 20.04 beta, im not a developer but i have plenty of spare time so i would like to help. i would like to suggest an idea if possible. is ot a way to implement jack audio in a way so its started automatically on each boot? so it cna work directly out of the box as coreaudio does? [11:40] !ubuntustudio-controls | keyi: Anything you set here persists between boots [11:40] keyi: Anything you set here persists between boots: Ubuntu Studio Controls is the application through which audio is configured in Ubuntu Studio. It configures Jack, sets the CPU governor, and ensures the user has realtime audio permissions. For more info, see !jack and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/UbuntuStudioControls [18:36] is anyone getting more xruns in 20.04(beta)? my setting are 44100/512 internal soundcard. [18:40] That does sound high. I will have to check that. I can't say as I have noticed but then I do normally use a PCI sound card [18:41] Have you set ubuntustudio-controls to preformance? [18:41] OvenWerks yes i did [18:44] OvenWerks this is what im getting [18:45] Thu Apr 16 20:42:23 2020: ERROR: JackEngine::XRun: client = pulse_out was not finished, state = TriggeredThu Apr 16 20:42:23 2020: ERROR: JackAudioDriver::ProcessGraphAsyncMaster: Process error [18:50] h9ow are you running jack? [18:51] https://postimg.cc/LYYqfBVJ [18:53] default? [18:53] are you sure that is your internal device and not hdmi? [18:54] newer motherboards often reverse these [18:54] i leaved it at default [18:54] let me check [18:54] try changing device to pch0,0 [18:54] or PCH,0,0 [18:55] a newer version will make sure default is never hdmi... [18:55] but that is in the future [18:55] ok i will try it now [18:57] https://postimg.cc/kBRgcFLC [18:57] it should be ok now [19:01] OvenWerks maybe disabling hyperthread in bios also? [19:11] at 512/2 hyperthreading should not be an issue. I have seen a difference at 64 or less [19:12] My system (i5 with 4 cores) does not have hyperthreading so I would not notice in any case [19:13] My tests were with older systems (P4 older atoms) [19:13] at 512/2 hyperthreading should not be an issue. I have seen a difference at 64 or less [19:13] My tests were with older systems (P4 older atoms) [19:13] My system (i5 with 4 cores) does not have hyperthreading so I would not notice in any case [19:15] OvenWerks mine its i5 too. i tried to disable the hyperthread. [19:15] maybe wifi? [19:15] Wifi and Bluetooth are notorious for causing Xruns. [19:19] some i5s are two core 4 thread but most desktop ones are four core. [19:21] i was just curious as in 19.10 i was not getting so much xruns on the same machine [19:23] im trying another app now. it seems better. with mixxx i got more xruns [19:24] shaban238: Every release we get people saying the same thing, that they didn't have as many xruns as the release prior. [19:24] *in the release prior [19:25] maybe im doing smth wrong [19:26] Well, it usually takes a couple of kernel updates before things smooth out. Thing is, we don't maintain the kernel here. [19:27] I will say this: there is a jackd2 bugfix update coming down from Debain very soon. [19:27] i see [19:27] Woah, speaking of which, it just landed. [19:27] (I just got the email notification) [19:28] =D [19:29] Bug 1833479, if you're wondering (OvenWerks, might interest you too) [19:29] bug 1833479 in jackd2 (Debian) "libjack-jackd2-0 double close on a failure to connect to jackd which causes crashes in multithreaded programs" [Unknown,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1833479 [19:30] Eickmeyer btw im not getting any xruns now that i removed pulseaudio ports [19:51] OvenWerks it seems that at 1024 buffer size im not getting any xruns, which is pretty obvious i guess [21:03] Eickmeyer may i ask you smth? [21:03] shaban238: Yes. [21:04] i run realtimeconfigquickscan to see how my laptop handles real-time audio [21:04] I'm familiar with that, I package that in Fedora. [21:04] ok :) [21:04] and the result was all green [21:04] Cool! [21:04] only 2 red [21:04] Checking checking sysctl inotify max_user_watches... < 524288 - not good [21:04] Ok, and those were? [21:04] Kernel with Real-Time Preemption... not found - not good [21:05] Ok, the Real-Time Preemption one is a false positive. [21:05] !rt | shaban238 [21:05] shaban238: The RT kernel is the Linux kernel with special realtime patches applied. It is not available in Ubuntu. See also !lowlatency and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/RealTimeKernel [21:05] I suggest reading that link. [21:05] ok thank you! [21:05] You'll see why having actual realtime process priority is BAD on desktop machines. [21:06] as far as i know ubuntu studio comes with low latency because is more secure than realtime [21:06] That's 100% correct. [21:06] And pretty much what that link describes. [21:07] :) [21:07] as far as sysctl inotify, I believe that might be a false positive too since it predates systemd. [21:08] thank you for the explanation! [21:09] No problem. :) [23:03] hi, I have an x220 on which I want to enable the mic. However, the mic mute LED appears to be always on. This is how my alsamixer capture page looks like: https://i.imgur.com/mbLPQ3j.png - and I'm running JACK too, this is how stuff looks like here: https://i.imgur.com/kqET657.png [23:12] AppAraat[m]: We don't support using qjackctl here. [23:13] You might consider checking in #lau_#freenode:matrix.org [23:13] (Linux Audio Users) [23:13] huh? I thought it came with Ubuntu Studio by default? [23:13] Only for legacy reasons. [23:13] !ubuntustudio-controls | AppAraat[m] [23:13] AppAraat[m]: Ubuntu Studio Controls is the application through which audio is configured in Ubuntu Studio. It configures Jack, sets the CPU governor, and ensures the user has realtime audio permissions. For more info, see !jack and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/UbuntuStudioControls [23:14] qjackctl overcomplicates things that are solved very easily with Ubuntu Studio Controls. [23:16] oh huh, I wasn't aware of that. I'll try it out. That page says that it's only from 20.04 and higher, and otherwise I have to backport a PPA. Since I'm on 18.04, is that backport included by default? [23:17] !ubuntustudio-backports | AppAraat[m] [23:17] AppAraat[m]: The Ubuntu Studio Backports PPA is required for users of Ubuntu Studio to receive LTS support for Ubuntu Studio 18.04, and for #ubuntustudio to support users of Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and its flavors using !jack. For more info, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/BackportsPPA, !ubuntustudio-controls, and !ubuntustudio-installer [23:17] You need to enable it using those instructions ^ [23:17] Otherwise 18.04 is NOT supported. [23:18] oh, if it's not by default then I don't think I have it enabled. I'll give these pages a read and come back. [23:18] AppAraat[m]: 18.04 of Ubuntu Studio was only supported until January of 2019 without that PPA. [23:18] (Not an LTS) [23:19] It says so on the website. [23:19] 18.04 is not an LTS? [23:19] Nope. [23:19] Not for Ubuntu Studio. [23:19] ooh I see [23:19] There was a major transition that happened at that time, and nobody on the team was comfortable with releasing an LTS. [23:20] I thought LTS for Ubuntu = LTS for everything, but apparently not [23:20] Nope. Flavors (not Ubuntu proper) dicatate their own support life. [23:20] An LTS for an Ubuntu flavor is typically 3 years as opposed to 5. [23:21] I'm glad to learn that! Would you recommend me to run 20.04? It seems pretty new for my taste. [23:21] I would. The daily ISO right now is very, very close to the final version, especially after running updates. [23:22] all right, in that case I'll start with my plans for migration. I had no idea! [23:23] It was all over the website, including the download page. [23:23] And the release notes. [23:23] last I visited the website was when I installed Ubuntu Studio, which was a while ago :p [23:23] but yeah, I should visit it more often I think [23:23] Still, it was in the release notes. [23:24] The relase notes aren't very big. :) [23:25] AppAraat[m]: The website also got a nice redesign recently, you might actually like exploring it. :) [23:26] I don't think I remember reading the release notes actually, I spun up the live ISO on my laptop, tested a few things out, noticed that all of the stuff I needed worked and proceeded to install it. But yeah, I should have been more attentive. [23:26] It's all good. I should probably put it in the topic line in IRC and on Matrix. [23:27] yeah that's a good idea [23:27] Unfortunately ERR:PlayingWithSon now. [23:28] no worries, I located the website and indeed it has been redesigned. It looks awesome! [23:30] scrolling from the top is a bit CPU hungry (Chromium 80.0.3987.163) but otherwise it looks great from the first glance of it [23:31] Yeah, unfortunately that's the cost of the cool effect. Depends on your CPU, really. Mine doesn't even flinch. [23:55] yeah I am trying to make some music on a potato [23:55] and I need to re-paste it, so a hot potato at that
