| Batoeh | Hello everyone. I hope you are having a great day. I know I have seen that running virtual machines on ubuntu studio or maybe kxstudio is not officially supported which I totally dig but the thing is I am using the patched kernel that you guys made so awesomely easy to install and I wasn't sure if there was any gotchas I had to worry about other than getting the headers. Gotchas like it flat out | 09:55 |
|---|---|---|
| Batoeh | fails to work. VMs would be strictly low resource and used mostly while not using any multimedia creation software. | 09:55 |
| Batoeh | Also from what I understand DAWs don't really benefit much from being installed on very fast read/write speed SSDs vs a relatively slow msata ssd. My thought process is I install an msata for the OS as I personally do not benefit too much personally with a faster SSD for my OS because how lightweight my setup is and that I would use faster SSDs or my NAS for bulk storage instead(including DAW | 12:06 |
| Batoeh | recordings). Is my thought process flawed? | 12:06 |
| Batoeh | Sorry that maybe a too general question | 12:06 |

| Tom31 | Hello together! | 13:49 |
| Tom31 | Can someone tell me if ubuntu studio has a firewall intigrated? | 13:49 |
| Batoeh | Tom31: I want to say most linux distros including studio have iptables | 14:03 |
| Batoeh | there are user interfaces like ufw and gufw but unsure if those are installed. | 14:04 |
| Tom31 | Thanks already! | 14:07 |
| Tom31 | First google iptables...'=D | 14:07 |
| Tom31 | extremely much to read about this topic. | 14:26 |
| Tom31 | I think I can not do anything with it in a hurry. | 14:26 |
| Batoeh | and for the most part they are setup by default to simply block anything trying to get to you but letting you connect to everything. | 15:08 |
| Batoeh | you should be good Tom31 :) if it comes you check out the man page and some youtube videos. it is actually fairly easy and really useful once you get hang of it | 15:09 |
| Tom31 | Let's see if I'll know my way around at some point, when I'm sufficiently occupied with it. | 15:16 |
| Tom31 | Must now unfortunately dedicate myself to other things again. | 15:16 |
| Tom31 | take care! | 15:16 |
| Tom31 | goodbye! | 15:16 |
| OvenWerk1 | Batoeh: many people use VMs for testing ISOs with no difficulty. | 16:26 |
| OvenWerk1 | Batoeh: the place where VMs fall down is trying to get really low latency (less than 10ms) | 16:29 |
| OvenWerk1 | or running cpu heavy plugins | 16:29 |
| OvenWerk1 | Batoeh: Ardour has been run with as many as 1000 recording tracks on a spinning disk. likely any ssd that can at least keep up with a spinning disk should be fine. | 16:31 |
| OvenWerk1 | Batoeh: the reality is that for many projects much of the audio is already sitting in buffers in RAM, so a good amount of RAM is helpful. Transfer from disk to RAM and back are not real time actions... Or to put it another way, the scheduling is a lot looser than for even medium latency audio. | 16:35 |
| OvenWerk1 | Batoeh: the ubuntu low latency kernel is very close to the generic kernel with some default values changed. I think it is even possible to use the generic kernel with just commandline switches to achieve the same thing. | 16:37 |
| Batoeh | Awesome OvenWerk1! thank you. That works for me. I wouldn't be using any audio applications while using the VM software anyways. Appreciate your help :) | 16:39 |
