[06:58] <studio-user149> how do we setup Ableton live 9 lite?
[07:13] <studio-user058> how to setup Ableton Live Lite
[14:05] <OvenWerks> studio-user058: does ableton live have a Linux version?
[14:19] <studio-user058> no but my MPC has it and it says linux compat
[14:23] <OvenWerks> not sure what "linux compatable" means in that context. If that means "runs in wine", I am not the person to help with that as I have no experience with wine, in particular the wine audio part of things.
[18:19] <eno93> bonsoir
[23:13] <studio-user006> Hi. I installed Ubuntu Studio today and am not having much luck with making any of the audio / MIDI programs work. I would like to know where to start to get things running.
[23:13] <studio-user006> LMMS seems to work without any problems.
[23:14] <Eickmeyer> studio-user006: Which version of Ubuntu Studio?
[23:16] <studio-user006> 18.10 I beleive.
[23:17] <Eickmeyer> studio-user006: Which audio applications are you trying?
[23:17] <studio-user006> Ardour, Pure Data, GMidimonitor
[23:17] <Eickmeyer> Please read this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/UbuntuStudioControls
[23:18] <Eickmeyer> That's where all of the pro audio configuration is done.
[23:18] <Eickmeyer> Most of the pro audio programs require that Jack is running before they will work.
[23:19] <Eickmeyer> To understand how the audio systems work, read this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/ProAudioIntro
[23:20] <studio-user006> I have little experience with JACK, so that would be a good place to start, maybe.
[23:20] <Eickmeyer> Yes, that's correct.
[23:20] <Eickmeyer> Ubuntu Studio Controls makes it extremely easy to configure.
[23:22] <Eickmeyer> As far as internal patching goes, that's where Patchage and/or Carla come in (Carla is in the backports PPA and coming to 19.04).
[23:25] <studio-user006> Without looking at Ubuntu Studio Controls, JACK seems very unintuitive. If there were some place to start that would help. I am installing Ubuntu Studio Controls now.
[23:26] <Eickmeyer> studio-user006: Ubuntu Studio Controls should have been installed by default, and that is your place to start. That first link (not ProAudioIntro) is your best guide at the moment.
[23:27] <Eickmeyer> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/UbuntuStudioControls
[23:30] <studio-user006> Thanks. I will have a look at that.
[23:33] <studio-user006> Btw, do you happen to know if the Behringer UMC404HD audio interface works with Ubuntu Studio? I tried with Ubuntu but had a lot of problems. It only worked briefly and had a lot of noise when I was testing it using T7.
[23:37] <studio-user006> Thanks for the help. I will be back if I have any more questions.
[23:37] <Eickmeyer> studio-user006: I use it all the time. :)
[23:38] <Eickmeyer> The Behringer UMC404HD.
[23:38] <studio-user006> You do. Great.
[23:38] <Eickmeyer> Needs Jack to work properly, though, so read-up on Ubuntu Studio Controls.
[23:40] <studio-user006> Will do. Another question if you do not mind. I was trying to see if I could get a Microkorg XL Sound Editor to work with this computer. It seems it will not install the Microkorg XL usb driver.
[23:40] <studio-user006> I was trying to install a Windows driver under Wine
[23:43] <Eickmeyer> 1) We can't support anything that's not already in Ubuntu, and 2) Windows drivers will not work under Linux, so it either must be supported by the kernel, or the manufacturer must support Linux if the driver isn't in the kernel.
[23:44] <Eickmeyer> Rule of thumb: if it works driverless on a mac, it should work on Linux.
[23:45] <Eickmeyer> studio-user006: ^
[23:46] <studio-user006> I am not sure about that. I have a Mac but I like to use Linux as well. The sound editor works but I do not think that it is connecting to the Microkorg XL.
[23:49] <Eickmeyer> Looking at it, you might not be able to get it to work except as a basic MIDI controller. The software definitely does not run on Linux.
[23:50] <Eickmeyer> studio-user006: That might be a situation where you have to run Jack with the ALSA-JACK MIDI bridge and patch it to whatever software synthesizer you wish to use (a bunch are included).
[23:51] <Eickmeyer> Typically, on Linux, MIDI controllers can't control the software because they need to know what they're connecting to. Ardour can do it without, Jack, but many applications rely on Jack to make the connection...
[23:51] <Eickmeyer> ...which is done with a patchbay app such as Patchage.
[23:53] <studio-user006> Ok. I will look into SysEx with the Microkorg XL on Linux. I am not sure if it will work as I think they wanted everybody to use their editor.
[23:53] <Eickmeyer> Yeah, that's the problem with proprietary hardware.
[23:58] <studio-user006> I am still quite new to audio and computers. I have an Oxygen49 so I am not stuck, I think. I have not connected it to this computer running this OS. I can see there is a lot to learn.
[23:59] <studio-user006> Thanks again. Gotta go.

[05:36] <raja> i have a problem trying to put my gateway lap[pt to suspend mode; need to do so since i travel a lot


[02:07] <cabose> nebody?
[02:07] <cabose> tablet help?
[02:07] <cabose> whoever is interested, please pm me
[02:07] <cabose> (need help compiling linuxwacom)
[02:08] <cabose> i am working on implementing finer details of the functions of a tablet
[02:20] <jldugger> such as?
[02:20] <cabose> well
[02:20] <cabose> i am trying to install wacomcpl
[02:20] <cabose> and the only way i know of right now, is to compile linuxwacom
[02:20] <cabose> because i can't find a package
[02:21] <cabose> but, when i try to compile, it errs out
[02:21] <cabose> and doesn't tell me much
[02:21] <cabose> as far as i know, the problem is that it doesn't think i have the kernel source on the machine
[02:21] <jldugger> maybe, apt-get build-dep wacom-tools
[02:21] <cabose> when i specified the directory
[02:21] <cabose> that doesn't install wacomcpl
[02:21] <cabose> i tried
[02:23] <cabose> well, i got all the basics working
[02:23] <cabose> like rotation and functionality of the stylus
[02:23] <jldugger> rotating a tabletPC screen?
[02:24] <cabose> got it working fine
[02:24] <jldugger> what tablet are you using?
[02:24] <cabose> got a nice little script
[02:25] <cabose> toshiba portege
[02:25] <jldugger> ah
[02:25] <jldugger> ive got a toshiba tecta
[02:25] <jldugger> tecra even
[02:25] <cabose> ok,
[02:25] <cabose> did you get wacomcpl?
[02:25] <cabose> i am thinking
[02:25] <cabose> that once i get everything up,
[02:26] <jldugger> i dont think so
[02:26] <jldugger> lemme turn it on
[02:26] <jldugger> i just got back from christmas an hour ago
[02:26] <cabose> i want to make packages for everything
[02:26] <cabose> and one dummy package to handle it all
[02:26] <jldugger> more power to you
[02:26] <cabose> that way, for my school
[02:26] <jldugger> ubuntu-tablet ;)
[02:26] <cabose> that wants to incorporate tablets
[02:27] <cabose> i can help students
[02:27] <cabose> who want to use linux
[02:27] <cabose> by giving them an easy to use solution
[02:27] <jldugger> all of them? i hope you cna handle it ;)
[02:27] <cabose> ?
[02:27] <cabose> all of what?
[02:27] <cabose> the students?
[02:27] <jldugger> yes
[02:27] <cabose> i just figure, mass email
[02:27] <cabose> the .deb
[02:27] <cabose> and give instructions
[02:28] <cabose> all the debs
[02:28] <cabose> and a line to put into sources.list
[02:28] <jldugger> your school big on linux?
[02:28] <cabose> not really
[02:28] <cabose> the IT staff is
[02:28] <cabose> but, admin and other people
[02:28] <cabose> keep the school using microsoft and apple
[02:28] <cabose> i want to change that
[02:29] <jldugger> a couple of questions: do you have a launchpad account?
[02:29] <cabose> no, but i should
[02:29] <cabose> i noticed some stuff about the sky2 driver
[02:29] <cabose> that a fix was released
[02:29] <cabose> but i couldn't get to it
[02:29] <jldugger> sky2?
[02:29] <cabose> yes
[02:29] <cabose> for my normal laptop
[02:29] <cabose> i am borrowing a school tablet over break
[02:30] <cabose> i have a toshiba satellite
[02:30] <cabose> this is just a tablet i am borrowing
[02:30] <cabose> i asked the guy who is running this program i am in
[02:30] <cabose> about removing windows
[02:30] <cabose> and installing linux
[02:30] <cabose> he told me, "Please do"
[02:30] <cabose> but, about the sky2
[02:31] <cabose> that is the ethernet driver for my laptop
[02:31] <cabose> Marvell Yukon sysconnect II
[02:31] <cabose> driver thinks it is pci
[02:31] <jldugger> when was it changed to "fix committed"
[02:31] <jldugger> ?
[02:31] <cabose> but it is pcie
[02:31] <cabose> not sure
[02:31] <cabose> but, a couple of months ago
[02:31] <cabose> i found the launchpad entry
[02:31] <cabose> and it said, issue resolved
[02:32] <cabose> neway
[02:32] <cabose> do you know of a package for wacomcpl?
[02:32] <cabose> or, how to tell it that my kernel source DOES exist
[02:32] <jldugger> it would probably be wacom-tools
[02:32] <cabose> for compiling the linuxwacom utilities
[02:33] <cabose> see, i installed wacom-tools
[02:34] <cabose> and it installed just about everything but wacomcpl
[02:34] <cabose> wacomcpl is a graphical configuration utility
[02:34] <cabose> for calibrating
[02:34] <cabose> and for mapping the stylus
[02:34] <cabose> it then automatically enters the data in xorg.conf
[02:34] <jldugger> wacom-kernel-source?
[02:35] <cabose> wacom kernel source?
[02:35] <cabose> what now?
[02:35] <cabose> already installed
[02:36] <cabose> a w<tab> reveals only wacdump wait wall watch
[02:36] <cabose> wa<tab> i mean
[02:37] <cabose> anyway
[02:37] <cabose> how much do you know about compiling from source?
[02:37] <cabose> because i am having slight problems
[02:38] <cabose> linuxwacom can't find my kernel source, even when i specify --with-kernel=/usr/src/linux (i made my own symlink)
[02:38] <cabose> i think that is what is keeping it from compiling
[02:38] <cabose> would you like to see the output
[02:38] <cabose> ?
[02:38] <crimsun> do not use /usr/src/linux.
[02:39] <crimsun> use /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build
[02:46] <cabose> why not?
[02:46] <cabose> or, rather, why?
[02:47] <cabose> so, you think that might work
[02:47] <cabose> ?
[02:48] <cabose> i posted the output of configure and make
[02:48] <cabose> to pastebin.com
[02:48] <cabose> number 846138
[02:52] <crimsun> well you don't have any of the build-dependencies installed.
[02:52] <crimsun> linux-headers-$(uname -r), x-dev, libx11-dev, and so on
[02:53] <jldugger> which is why i suggested build-dep
[02:54] <cabose> ok
[02:55] <cabose> so, what is your best suggestion for the overall circumstance?
[02:55] <crimsun> ...install the build-dependencies?
[02:56] <cabose> what's the syntax for that again?
[02:56] <cabose> apt-get install --build-dep wacom-tools
[02:56] <cabose> ?
[02:57] <cabose> nope
[02:57] <cabose> fine
[02:57] <crimsun> apt-get build-dep wacom-tools
[02:57] <cabose> i'lok
[02:57] <cabose> sorry bout that
[02:57] <cabose> my fingers are cold
[02:57] <crimsun> then install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[02:57] <cabose> i have the headers installed
[02:57] <cabose> wait
[02:57] <cabose> not on the tablet
[02:57] <cabose> i forgot
[02:58] <cabose> i installed them on my tablet
[02:58] <cabose> laptop*
[02:58] <cabose> sorry
[02:59] <cabose> NOES!!!
[02:59] <cabose> Could not get lock /var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open
[03:00] <crimsun> (use sudo)
[03:00] <cabose> i did
[03:00] <crimsun> these are questions not meant for this channel.
[03:00] <cabose> what channel do i take them to?
[03:00] <crimsun> the general support one.
[03:00] <cabose> ubuntu channel didn't give me any help
[03:01] <cabose> sorry
[03:01] <cabose> i fell into a lapse of retardation
[03:02] <cabose> (kidding)
[03:02] <cabose> crimsun, tell me
[03:02] <cabose> what exactly is this channel for, then?
[03:02] <crimsun> development. You're asking support questions.
[03:03] <cabose> ok, well
[03:03] <cabose> what i am asking kindof crosses the line
[03:03] <crimsun> btw, you can always check to see if those of us who are active here will help you in #ubuntu.
[03:03] <cabose> ah, ok
[03:04] <cabose> i know this is besides the point
[03:04] <cabose> but, this channel seemed pretty empty to me
[03:04] <cabose> nobody was talking anyway
[03:05] <cabose> on a side note, why is that command uname?
[03:05] <cabose> i mean, what is the u for?
[03:05] <cabose> i know what it does
[03:06] <cabose> screw it...
[03:06] <cabose> i want to get involved with some development, but i need to learn valuable languages
[03:06] <cabose> any tips?
[03:06] <cabose> i am thinking to start with C
[03:06] <cabose> i have some experience elsewhere
[03:06] <cabose> but nothing directly valuable
[03:07] <cabose> THANK YOU
[03:07] <cabose> THANK YOU ALL!
[03:08] <cabose> can anybody please tell me how to use check-install real quick?
[03:08] <cabose> so i can make a debian package
[03:08] <cabose> was it make check-install
[03:08] <cabose> or was it make
[03:08] <cabose> then check-install
[03:13] <cabose> i got it installed
[03:13] <cabose> thank you all
[03:33] <uu> hi
