StudioUser55The applications menu uses an extremely small font.  Changing the windows scale factor up or font size has no effect on the applications menu.  Can anyone help me with this?12:02
BinarySaviorhello, intermittently (maybe 20% of the time) I boot into ubuntu studio, some unexpected behavior occurs:  Once I reach the login page, either 1) the password field is not focused and mouse and keyboard are unresponsive or 2) the password field is focused and when I type, I see a few characters appear but then it loses focus and I cannot regain focus (unresponsive mouse and keyboard). The only workaround I could find is to 12:11
BinarySaviorenter TTY using CRTL+ALT+F2 and then reboot with CRTL+ALT+DELETE and cross my fingers it doesn't happen again12:11
BinarySaviorthis has been going on since I installed the OS closer to the beginning of 202312:12
BinarySaviorand I'm using Ubuntu Studio 22.04.112:13
BinarySaviorCould this be due to another application grabbing the keyboard & mouse before I log in?12:38
BinarySaviorthis sounds very similar to the issues I've been experiencing: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=247993612:44
BinarySaviorcould be TMP issue12:44
EickmeyerBinarySavior: Here's the good news about the login screen: the password field doesn't have to be focused to be receiving input (not a bug but a feature in sddm). Also, not something we can solve in Ubuntu Studio as we didn't even theme it in that release.14:51
Eickmeyersddm is commonly used by Ubuntu Studio, Kubuntu, and Lubuntu to handle login.14:51
BinarySaviorEickmeyer, but I press keys on the keyboard and the password dots are not showing up in the password field16:36
EickmeyerBinarySavior: Doesn't matter, it still reads them.16:45
EickmeyerIt's a weird "quirk" of the display manager in this case.16:45
BinarySaviorok if it happens again I will try to type my password & hit enter & wait for desktop to start up16:56
StudioUser44How do i factory rest ubuntu. was givin a computer and its locked by the administrator17:20
EickmeyerStudioUser44: You'd want to download an .iso image. https://ubuntustudio.org/download17:26
EickmeyerUnless you want Ubuntu. https://ubuntu.com/download17:27
bacteriummournerhi, i just tried upgrading to mantic. and i'm getting "Generating grub configuration file ...18:37
bacteriummourner/etc/grub.d/09_lowlatency: 1: version_find_latest: not found18:37
bacteriummournerrun-parts: /etc/kernel/postinst.d/zz-update-grub exited with return code 12718:37
bacteriummournerdpkg: error processing package linux-image-6.5.0-9-lowlatency (--configure):18:37
bacteriummourner installed linux-image-6.5.0-9-lowlatency package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1"18:37
bacteriummourneranyone else getting similar?18:37
EickmeyerDid it completely break? I fixed that.18:38
bacteriummourneri think so. says upgrade has been aborted. your system could be in an unusable state. a reocvery will now run. and then the recovery fails18:40
Eickmeyerbacteriummourner: It looks like you, at one point in time, removed ubuntustudio-lowlatency-settings but did not *purge* it, which left /etc/grub.d/09_lowlatency in place. 18:40
bacteriummourneroh18:40
bacteriummournerso i apt purge *something* ?18:41
bacteriummournerubuntustudio-lowlatency-settings18:41
EickmeyerI don't know *why on earth you would remove that*.18:41
EickmeyerLet me think. You're in a pickle.18:42
EickmeyerOk, the damage has been done. What happens if you run `sudo apt purge ubuntustudio-lowlatency-settings`?18:43
bacteriummourneri don't recall ever removing ubuntustudio-lowlatency-settings. i just went to check, and my desktop didn't have it either (it does now)18:43
EickmeyerOk, don't purge it now.18:44
bacteriummournersays unable to locate package on my laptop though18:44
bacteriummournerderp18:45
bacteriummournertypoed18:45
EickmeyerThat means, for whatever reason, it was removed. You can safely `sudo rm /etc/grub.d/09_lowlatency` then `sudo chmod +x /etc/grub.d/10_linux` and try the upgrade process again.18:45
bacteriummournerok, will give it a try, thanks18:46
Eickmeyeryw18:46
bacteriummournerworked great! rebooted fine, and just installed ubuntustudio-lowlatency-settings. do i need to do anything re: 10_linux or am i good?18:54
Eickmeyerbacteriummourner: run lsb_release and see what it tells you you're on.18:55
bacteriummournersays no LSB modules are available18:56
EickmeyerOpe, my bad. `lsb_release -a`18:56
bacteriummournerdesc: ubuntu 23.10, release 23.10, codename: mantic - guessing it's a success?18:57
EickmeyerLooks like it! Do me a favor and run `sudo update-grub` just to make sure it doesn't error.18:57
EickmeyerThe new version doesn't have 09_lowlatency.18:57
bacteriummournerno error, looks good. thanks again so much. you're the best!18:58
EickmeyerYou're welcome!18:58
Iammotrethanjustanyone have an idea of how to use blue yeti with ubuntustudio?22:06
EickmeyerIammotrethanjust: It should be plug-and-play, but if using JACK you might have to patch it with a patchbay.22:07
Iammotrethanjustah22:07
Iammotrethanjustso i was on the right track trying to patch with carla22:07
EickmeyerYep.22:07
Iammotrethanjustits kinda stopped being plug and play as soon as that studio control opened22:08
Iammotrethanjustso jack is blocking22:08
Iammotrethanjuststereo appears not to work well out of the box22:09
EickmeyerOk, one thing you need to know is that Studio Controls just runs a daemon called Autojack. It's a frontend for that, nothing more. So, if you leave JACK in a state and shut down or log out, Autojack puts it back in that state when you restart it. Studio Controls does nothing else but check that when you open it.22:10
EickmeyerStudio Controls takes a moment to find out what state JACK is in, so if it looks like thing are weird at first, that's why.22:11
EickmeyerBut if everything is working for you, that's great.22:11
Iammotrethanjustits just me your right22:12
Iammotrethanjustso if i get it working to where i can use it - should be good - it will remember22:13
EickmeyerCorrect.22:13
Iammotrethanjustfun and games i will invite the kids over22:14
Eickmeyerhehe22:14
Iammotrethanjustthanks erick22:14
EickmeyerNo prob22:14
Iammotrethanjustgood thing i am not using my name on this channel22:14
Iammotrethanjustgord not gordon for me22:15
Iammotrethanjustsheesh22:15
Iammotrethanjustthat was the name I got when i was in trouble22:15
EickmeyerMeh, everybody knows who I am anyways. I receive my share of death threats and the police know to check with me before swatting me. :)22:15
Iammotrethanjustyour name is familiar22:15
EickmeyerI'm the leader of Ubuntu Studio, Erich Eickmeyer.22:16
Iammotrethanjusti have been around a few years22:16
EickmeyerAh, cool.22:16
Iammotrethanjustyou see? i do read...22:16
EickmeyerYep! Appreciated. (some people don't and it gets them in trouble!)22:16
Iammotrethanjusti used to be on radio22:17
Iammotrethanjustdeath threats over not playing a song....22:17
Iammotrethanjustno fun kids22:17
EickmeyerWow. Some people's kids.22:17
Iammotrethanjustyup22:18
Iammotrethanjustbest and worst of us you meet over the phone at a radio station22:18
Iammotrethanjustall about a stupid song22:19
EickmeyerI believe it. My uncle used to be not only a radio DJ and announcer but also a station manager. He'd laugh at 'em.22:19
Iammotrethanjustuntil they show up in the parking lot22:20
EickmeyerWell, this was the 80s in Eastern Washington where if someone did that they'd probably get shot first.22:20
Iammotrethanjusti am a Canadian  we would only make you listen to east coast music22:21
EickmeyerAh, yeah, I see. Some people these days get butthurt about that.22:21
Iammotrethanjustpeople get hurt about many things,  we Canadians tend not to sue each other though22:22
EickmeyerTrue. Us down stateside tend to either 1) shoot first and sue later, or 2) sue first and shoot later. 🙄22:23
Eickmeyer(only kidding)22:23
EickmeyerI'd never.22:23
EickmeyerAnyhow, gotta look at a bug that's calling my name.22:24
Iammotrethanjustthanks again22:25
