tantalaumera[m]Hi, are there any plan to include Cinelerra-GG in future Ubuntu Studio release?12:59
billytrip[m]I recently installed US 20.04 (21.10 would not install) .  I really do not care for the xcfe desktop as I plan to make this my main machine.  I've done some reading but it is not clear to me that I have the option of installing a less minimalist desktop.  Do I? Which one(s)?---16:15
MoonsofMoons[m]Ubuntu Studio is not really DE specific. The included software and the low-latency kernel are the meat and potatoes so to speak. If you in stall a different DE (Gnome, Plasma, etc.) it should be fine. Since you already have a bunch of primarily GTK based apps (because Xfce), installing Gnome rather than KDE would be cleaner I guess. 16:52
MoonsofMoons[m]s/in/install/, s/stall//16:52
MoonsofMoons[m]Might be simpler to figure out why you couldn't get 21.10 to install though. 16:58
tarzeautantalaumera[m]: if we get to package it for debian?19:12
tarzeautantalaumera[m]: i guess #331072 should be renamed to cinelerra-gg, rename to ITP: check if it builds without non-free stuff, then test it. can you test it?19:17
tarzeaui've played/packaged with olive-editor, flowblad, and shotcut... 19:17
billytrip[m]> Might be simpler to figure out why you couldn't get 21.10 to install though.  - Well upon install it printed on a blank screen one sentence I forget, followed by "Failed to install Disk Manager" then "Failed to install Modem Manager" and then "Failed to install ???? (I forget this one) and then it just quit.  I googled the error messages and got no where.  I basically had no thread to pull at that point so I punted to 20.04.  That19:29
billytrip[m]was before I found out that the subsequently upgraded the desktop.19:29
billytrip[m]Sorry for the botched message - I'm still learning this thing :)19:31
MoonsofMoons[m]Understood. Those are very strange messages to see during a Linux installation. I would guess something went wrong burning the iso. What tool did you use to create the bootable install media? 19:56
billytrip[m]<MoonsofMoons[m]> "Understood. Those are very..." <- brasero.  I used to same method to create the second (20,04) disk.  I guess burning another one wouldn't be too much trouble, worth a try probably less hassle than installing a new DE :)20:26

billytrip[m]a "daily driver"?/20:28
MoonsofMoons[m]I use 21.10 without issues and have for several months20:29
MoonsofMoons[m]Are you burning a DVD or USB? For USB I suggest trying Etcher 20:30
MoonsofMoons[m]https://www.balena.io/etcher/20:31
billytrip[m]MoonsofMoons[m]: I burned a DVD.  I didn't have a USB large enough handy.  I'm going to try again.  I haven't done much to this install so writing over it would not be a problem.  And even though DVD writes are "verified" I am aware that it is the modern version of a tape drive, i.e. not particularly reliable.  And that would explain why I got nowhere looking answers on the web.20:33
