zmagiioerheks: Have you worked with HifiBerry HATs?17:52
Eickmeyerzmagii: Unless you have a support question, take it to #ubuntustudio-offtopic. :)18:02
Mark85I have kind of an odd setup.  I push my audio via pulseaudio over to a Windows box with some nice bose speakers attached.  In 18.04 this worked perfectly.  I just upgraded to 20.04 and now nada.  Only sound is through usb headphones and there's not even a volume control for that anymore.  Is there some sound weirdness with 20.04?18:05
EickmeyerMark85: Check pavucontrol and alsamixer and see if there's any weirdness there.18:08
* Eickmeyer has experienced zero audio issues18:08
Mark85pavucontrol shows the output to the WaveOut on Microsoft Sound Mapper like it always did, but no audio appears to be going to it.  Never shows any applications playing sound.  Alsa looks normal, as in the same as before the upgrade, as well.18:10
EickmeyerThat's odd. Microsoft Sound Mapper? That sounds like Windows, not Ubuntu.18:11
Mark85Yeah.. it pushes the sound out over my network to my windows box.18:11
EickmeyerNo clue how you would've set that up. That's not something we really can offer you support on.18:11
Mark85And nothing changed on that one.  Even checked file versions and configs.18:11
Mark85It took some research.  /chuckle18:12
EickmeyerThen you might have to go back to that research. You have an unsupported audio setup as far as official support is concerned.18:12
Mark85And it was worth a shot.  I appreciate your time.18:12
EickmeyerSorry I couldn't have been of more assistance.18:13
JorgeIcarusHello everyone, folks! I have just installed Ubuntu Studio 20.04 LTS and I am loving it!!! Thanks to everybody who has helped with this amazing project!21:03
EickmeyerJorgeIcarus: Thanks for the kind words!21:03
JorgeIcarusI am going to donate to the project for sure. Unfortunately I have no programming skills whatsoever.21:04
EickmeyerJorgeIcarus: Appreciate it. We don't have any way of directly donating at this time, but we appreciate the sentiment.21:05
JorgeIcarusEverything is slick and runs smoothly and I can't believe the amount and the quality of the programs already available21:05
JorgeIcarusEickmeyer, that's a pity. The developers should have a Patron or JustGive page or something...even a "buy me a coffee" type of button somewhere linked to a paypal account or something...21:06
EickmeyerJorgeIcarus: I've been thinking about putting together some kind of patreon, but other things get in the way a lot.21:07
JorgeIcarusWell, as soon as you or someone else put it up, I promise I will donate21:09
JorgeIcarusI have a question about the "whisker" XFCE menu. I don't know whether that's the only "flavour" Ubuntu Studio comes in...is it ok to ask here? Help and Google were not of much help21:10
EickmeyerThere's no other "flavor" of Ubuntu Studio, but Ubuntu Studio is a flavor of Ubuntu. As such, we support installing Ubuntu Studio on other flavors of Ubuntu...21:11
Eickmeyer!ubuntustudio-installer | ...via this21:12
ubottu...via this: Ubuntu Studio Installer is an app that can be used to add Ubuntu Studio's benefits to an existing Ubuntu (or official flavor) installation, or add additional packages. For more info, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/UbuntuStudioInstaller21:12
EickmeyerThere are other menus you can use in Xfce (the desktop environment.21:14
JorgeIcarusI understand. I will keep things as simple as possible. I am going to leave the default menu. It was a problem with the icon of a program I have installed that disappeared...I will look for the solution somewhere else. Thanks anyway21:16
EickmeyerOk. What application/icon?21:17
JorgeIcarusI installed Telegram Desktop directly from their website (because I could not find it with the repositories currently present). The icon was there and worked fine as long as the program was in the Download Folder. I then moved it to /usr/lib. The icon (alias) in the menu obviously did not work because it was pointing at the wrong directory, so I21:22
JorgeIcaruschanged the path in the properties. After doing that, it disappeared. I have been trying creating a new item using Ubuntu Studio Menu Item Creator, but to no avail. I checked the help file, as well...I am a bit hopeless, I guess. I can only use my DAWs and audio plugins! LOL21:22
bashfulrobotJorgeIcarus: Which version? I know there is a package on 20.0421:25
bashfulrobothttps://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/qkgcul0W/21:25
* Eickmeyer has Telegram and has not encountered that issue21:26
bashfulrobotAnd there is also a snap package that is slightly newer.21:26
bashfulrobot`installed:          2.1.1                          (1585) 74MB -` (on my system)21:27
JorgeIcarusOh, thanks. I must have done something wrong because I could not find it.21:45
studio_user_failHi, just grabbed the ISO of 20.04 LTS and trying to install it.... i can't boot to either live session or install unless I remove "quiet" from boot options, or i get a segmentation fault with this error21:49
studio_user_failln: /tmp/mountroot-fail-hooks.d//scripts/init-premount/lvm2: No such file or directory21:49
studio_user_failIf i remove "quiet" i can boot to the live session or install screen, but either way, Ubiquiti locks up after attempting to choose the keyboard layout21:50
studio_user_failComputer is a stock HP Z230 SFF workstation (haswell Xeon processor, nVidia NVS 315)21:50
studio_user_failAlso. the double / in the ln error is not a typo.21:51
studio_user_failat least on my part21:51
studio_user_failLooks like after a while of leaving the wheel spinning, after trying to choose a keyboard layout, it gives me a dialog box to choose to terminate the window as it may not be respondign21:54
Eickmeyerstudio_user_fail: I'm going to go ahead and blame the nVidia NVS 315 on this one. My daily machine is a HP Z220 CMT workstation, intel integrated/nvidia GTX 1650.21:54
studio_user_failThe NVS was giving me occasional nouveau errors in plain debian 10 so i would believe that if nobody else is having issues with 20.0421:55
EickmeyerSo, not much different than yours, but nvidia graphics traditionally have struggled with the noveau drivers (which are used by default).21:55
EickmeyerI'm not having issues with 20.04.21:56
studio_user_failHmm okay. I had failures with the safe graphics too, i'll try booting off the 19.10 iso and see how it goes21:56
studio_user_failThank you21:56
EickmeyerYou're welcome.21:57
studio_user_failLike like the issue is it tries to run /scripts/init-premount, which causes the ln: /tmp/mountroot-fail-hooks.d//scripts/init-premount/lvm2: No such file or directory.  error22:03
studio_user_failthen it gives a kernel bug at fs/etc4/extents_status.c:884 (invalid opcode 0000 #2 preempt smp pti)22:04
studio_user_failSame error with /tmp/mountroot-fail-hooks booting 20.04 iso on my laptop but it does boot up normally and let me get through setup it seems22:09
studio_user_failso yeah must be the gpu in that machine being cranky22:09
studio_user_failAh. Looks like I am having some better luck booting with legacy BIOS on that machine as opposed to UEFI.22:12
studio_user_failNo secure boot for me. Lol22:12
JorgeIcarusHello again. Nothing. I tried installing the packages from terminal, but Telegram won't appear in my Whisker menu. Can you pls point me to the right forum where I can ask for help?22:30
EickmeyerJorgeIcarus: What I would do is uninstall whatever you installed and type, "sudo apt install telegram-desktop" into a terminal.23:29
JorgeIcarusEickmeyer Yes, that's what I did. I will do it again after rebooting...23:31
EickmeyerJorgeIcarus: Barring that, "sudo apt remove telegram-desktop" followed by "sudo snap install telegram". That might yeild better results. Otherwise, there's an error in your whisker menu configuration.23:32
EickmeyerWhisker menu is searchable, by the way.23:32
JorgeIcarusI used sudo apt autoremove telegram-desktop23:32
EickmeyerThat's fine.23:32
JorgeIcaruswhat do you mean by whisker menu is searchable? (sorry, I am a total linux noob)23:33
EickmeyerYou can open your whisker menu and just start typing.23:33
EickmeyerThat should search it.23:33
JorgeIcarusyes, that's what I did...but it won't show up. I can search (and find!) anything else23:34
EickmeyerStrange.23:34
EickmeyerDone with the snap method yet?23:35
JorgeIcarusyes, it is still working. it had to setup snapd, first. I used the command with telegram-desktop as the argument, though. not telegram23:43
EickmeyerWell, if that's what worked...23:43
JorgeIcarusok, done.  and the icon is there! :)23:43
JorgeIcaruscheers, mate23:43
EickmeyerAlright, have fun!23:43
JorgeIcarusthat's the only other app I use apart from my audio production tools. I will have fun tomorrow with all these goodies here! thank you so much again. btw, txt me @james_jamerson on Telegram23:47
Eickmeyer:)23:47
JorgeIcarusI will probably pop in this IRC room again, though...I am sure I will run into more troubles! LOL23:48
JorgeIcarusgoodnight!23:48
