As has been requested many times before in similar cases,
please do not post such generic invitations to mailing
lists. To my mind, this constitutes abuse, and should be
grounds for the poster being put on temporary moderation.

Wow! This seems cool. Lemme download and use. I do believe now that I wont
have to resort to FCP for my work. Thanks a lot SK. Either way I was
planning to make a 2-5 minute small ad for Free Software, just for my our

Based on this thread's discussion I asked the RH India spokesperson some 
questions. Following are the details:
---
Q: Although we’re aware of free (as in beer) RHEL alternatives like CentOS, 
what if I opt to use RHEL without buying a subscription? Is that 'legally' 
possible?

A: RHEL is open source software governed by GPL licensing. As per the GPL 
terms it is freely available on the Internet for download and use. Since 
this would be free download without subscription, it would not cover any 
support, updates or any of the benefits that a subscription would 
entitle. Once the subscription period ends, unless it is renewed again, 
the service support ceases. However, the customer can still continue 
using the product.

One thing I’d like to bring fourth for subscribers is that Red Hat 
extends the Red Hat Open Source Assurance program, which safeguards 
customers who are developing and deploying open source solutions from 
legal harm.

You can get more information about the purchase and usage of the RHEL 
subscription for India in Section 3.1 and Section 5 of the Enterprise 
Agreement [www.redhat.com/licenses/Enterprise_Agr_India.pdf].

Q. Let’s assume I’ve been an RHEL subscriber. I then choose to 
discontinue it, well aware that I won’t get security updates (having 
already made up my mind to get the security updates from CentOS 
repositories). So, as per you, I can still keep RHEL on the system?

A: Yes, this is one of the important benefits to the customer where he can 
continue using RHEL but, at the same time, he would lose the advantage 
of Red Hat support ecosystem.

Q. I understand that RH artwork and logos are trademarked by Red Hat 
Inc. Does that stop me from freely sharing a copy with my friends like I 
do in the case of Fedora?

A: The Red Hat artwork and logo are trademarked and cannot be used freely. 
Yes, the code can be shared, but it cannot be duplicated with the Red 
Hat logo.

Q. Can you elaborate on the trademark policies in laymen’s terms? Essentially, 
what are the dos and don’ts?

A: The trademark and logo are completely owned by Red Hat and any use would 
be illegal.

I am not new to Foss tools. I have tried almost all of them. That's why I am
asking which one is stable enough to do serious editing. Kino is not at all
good for someone who has worked on FCP. It's like asking a Ferrari driver to
try bicycle... Blender...hmmm good for 3D guys...but not for pure film
editing too much there.
.is there anything that is really good enough for serious work?

How to start with foss video editing:

your first steps should be with kino. About 90% of personal
video-edits can be done with this.

grow your skills and start using the video-edit features of blender3d.

I used both and its just the software suite. Both use same kernel yes with
one difference -- Real Time kernel. All you need to do on Ubuntu is to
install real time kernel with :

 sudo apt-get install linux-rt

Or if you are updating you Ubuntu with entire suite of Ubuntu Studio
from Synaptic,
(just select Ubuntu Studio in synaptic) it will automatically Install
the realtime kernel.

Thanks for the kaurava vs pandav thing Niyam. But as long as we have
*Saarathi* like RMS, we shouldn't care.

But I am still awaiting the name of the software. I had been a professional
editor/director for documentary films before joining print. FCP was like
walk in park. Now, having migrated to FOSS, I am looking for something
stable enough to allow me make a 5 minute short film. Please tell which tool
to use with confidence. As you must have used it in your short film project
as you mentioned earleir.

Suggest you install Ubuntu studio on a separate partition OR remove 
CentOS if you are not using it much.
Even though both are Linux distros, their package management is 
different, the library paths may be different.

Thanks for your kind replies Linux-Lingam and Gajendra.
I really appreciate it-- and the information was really helpful.

Maybe my question sounded dumb to some-- but I guess if people asking
questions judged as dumb are snubbed with sarcasm--- then knowledge will
never spread or be openly shared beyond master-slave kind of transactions--
that's why I never hesitate to ask or share!!!

Also, my thanks to the unicast poster who offered to share his Ubuntu Linux
distro... thanks a ton... will revert unicast...

Thanks and Best Regards,
NS

Re: [ilugd] question abt UbuntuStudio compatibility with CentOS distro...

[gajendra khanna]

Hi Nalin
To my knowledge both are not binary compatible and infact use
different type of packages. (centos has rpm and ubuntu deb packages).
You'll have to make a separate partition and have to make a dual boot
with your centos according to me.

Gajendra

Re: [ilugd] question abt UbuntuStudio compatibility with CentOS distro...

[Linux Lingam]

oh nalin,

your question is a tad funny. you see, ubuntustudio is a complete and
independent linux distro. when you wish to run it in centos, your
question either implies a) you mistake it for a package, or b) you
wish to run it in a virtual environment.

in case a) no it's a distro
b) don't virtualize, you need the lowest latency possible, and also
sound drivers, JACK, et al may cause problems.

please consider instalilng ubuntustudio in a separate partition, say
about 5 to 10 gb would be sufficient. keep a separate partition for
your data files.

hth

regards
niyam bhushan

Re: [ilugd] question abt UbuntuStudio compatibility with CentOS distro...

[Nalin Savara]

To rephrase my question:

(a) Are there any specific package dependancies which I will need to install
on my CentOS install before I install ubuntu-studio ?

(b) (based on experience), would it be recommended to skip trying to get
ubuntu-studio to run with CentOS--- and instead run it with a separate
install of Ubuntu ?

- Personally I depend on my centos to do mock-up installs of certain web
applications to duplicate errors and debug locally--- and hence dont want to
do anything drastic that disturbs that setup.

hey bro Ashish,
Kindly spare me the sarcasm-- unless you want to unnecessarily start a flame
war--- I asked for practical information-- and if you lack the information
or knowledge to answer that question; then limit yourself to philosophical
debates instead.
Also, my politeness is neither a sign of weakness NOR am I seeking any
patronage from you-- in english it's called "list courtesy".


Thanks and Best Regards,

Execute above commands from a live cd, with CentOS partition mounted at 
/mnt/centos.

Re: [ilugd] Open Source MIDI Editor/ Sequencer

[Nalin Savara]

Dear Participants of this Thread ( Swapnil Bhartiya, Praveen A, Linux Lingam
(Niyam)) ,

Thanks for all your kind comments, suggestions and discussion.
I just thought I'd drop a 2-liner to express that this is interesting
discussion-- and my heartfelt thanks to all that are participating.

Also, if someone can point to useful online FAQs, tutorials and use-cases
for various music editing software-- most specifically relating to MIDI; I
would further appreciate that.

Rock-on folks... let not this not of thanks end the discussion

Thanks and Best Regards,

NS

[ilugd] question abt UbuntuStudio compatibility with CentOS distro...

[Nalin Savara]

Hi Folks...

How are you ? Hope my mail finds you all in best of health and spirits...

Quick Question: Will Ubuntu-studio run with CentOS with GUI packages
installed ?

--> I have a centos distro with text only shell, minus GUIs; and would
prefer not to reformat that partition to put Ubuntu there.

--> --> Anyone hereabouts in South Delhi who has ubuntu... preferably in
Saket/malviya nagar even JNU/Munirka (= home of !!!) ? Please feel free to
Unicast ping me...

Thanks and Regards,

N.S

[ilugd] Reboot a frozen system using "REISUB"

[Anupam Jain]

http://fosswire.com/2007/09/08/fix-a-frozen-system-with-the-magic-sysrq-keys/

The next time your linux system freezes and even Ctrl-Alt-Del does
nothing, try typing in "REISUB" while holding down Alt and SysReq!

Found this via some cool ubuntu cheat sheets here -
