Could whoever merges it please take into account LP: #1243235 I would like for libav to be demoted to universe, and this would make merging easier. It looks like strigi is in main, yet only seeded into kubuntu. So if it was to be demoted to universe it could gain additional build-deps required to enable full ffmpeg support. alsa-plugins are also in main. It build-depeds on libav to build libasound2-plugins-extra binary package, which in turn is in universe. This was created due to many users asking for these plugins to be able to use their AC3 compatible receivers with ALSA/Pulse. However if libav is going back to universe, I have no problem dropping this again. Should someone want these plugins, I'd be happy to help create a split package, but have no interest in helping maintain it.

Gentle reminder: Please check Vcs fields in a source package when working on it.
Hey folks, I had to spend a small amount of time merging changes from the archive into a package's bzr branch after I realized I uploaded a new revision of the packages from a bzr branch with sed changes not included. This is just a reminder to check to see if a package has a Vcs field on it when working on a package outside your own team. So far as I know, all bzr branches for package maintenance outside of the UDD namespace are writable if you are in ubuntu-core-dev. I know of at least the desktop team and the audio team are, and likely others. Its not usually a problem fetching and merging previously overwritten changes, but it does mean more time is otherwise spent making sure nothing is lost. Thanks for your time and consideration.

Heads up, gcdmaster no longer available in Oneiric.
Hi folks, I still lirk here and read some discussion from time to time, and one thing I noticed was the daily report of uninstallability issues with the studio images, the latest one involving gcdmaster/cdrdao. I have fixed that issue in the seeds, and am presently uploading a new meta to fix it in the archive properly. The downside is that you lose gcdmaster. Its worth noting that gcdmaster uses old GNOME libraries which are being removed from the Ubuntu images, and even main. Gcdmaster is also not really maintained upstream. Unfortunately this is not easily fixable, as gcdmaster is built from the cdrdao package, which is in main. If you want gcdmaster, then someone needs to step up and 1) maintain it, and 2) port it away from legacy GNOME libs.

Thanks to Evan Broder, merged code from these 3 branches, and uploaded. Evan's
branch already had change from one of vanvugt's branches, plus changelog
entries, which made things a little easier to finish off.
Question: Should we encourage contributors to put all fixes to a package in one
branch, or should separate branches as per above be used? For working on code I
accept that separate branches for separate fixes is acceptable, but for
packaging I feel it makes a little more work, as one has to go hunting for
extra bits to put into an upload. Thoughts? Happy to work either way regardless.

Re: HDMI and automatically hardware recognition
I'll comment on the audio side, as thats what I am involved in, and am watching upstream.

On Tue, Feb 08, 2011 at 11:36:31PM EST, Yann Santschi wrote: A way to fix this problem, is to create something such as an hardware profile that contains settings and when a new display and/or audio output are detected (I think it's possible to detect a hardware change), a window / widget asks the user if he want's to apply saved settings or if he want's to set new settings. Audio wise, there is work going on upstream to retrieve the information from any connected HDMI device, and use that information to correctly configure audio setup for use by the user. The lower level parts of the stack, i.e ALSA don't even have this implemented properly if at all yet, and once thats done, the pieces higher up the stack, i.e PulseAudio still need to be extended to work with ALSA to get the information needed, and set things appropriately. In short, this is a known issue upstream, and it is being worked on, but I cannot give an estimate as to when it may be ready for use.

Of course I'd prefer realtime/rt, however the truth of the matter is that keeping up with patches, and keeping the kernel versions in sync for any one Ubuntu release is very difficult. For this reason, I'd favour the lowlatency kernel, as it would be easier to maintain, given its only configuration changes, and would be easier to get into Ubuntu, and maintain it, keeping in sync with the Ubuntu release kernel version. How do you would want help (test, packaging, upstream relation, Ubuntu relation, Studio relation and so on)? I'm happy to help maintain the low latency kernel, i.e using the Ubuntu release kernel git tree as a base, and making our own changes on top, and rebasing on the Ubuntu kernel for fixes. Can help get it into universe, and maintain it there. Which Ubuntu releases do you would want see well supported for that/those kernels? Every releases or only LTS?

Bootup artwork moving to plimouth for lucid.
Hi all As of the sesion today regarding the boot experience for Lucid, Plimouth will be used for a lot of the bootup niceties like splash and stuff prior to gdm's greater appearing, and mabe a little bit afterwards as well, which means xsplash is going away. I don't know when plimouth will land in the archive, but I will keep my eye out for it, so we can start getting things together for our bootup splash. If there are PPA packages available sooner, then I think we need to try tem, so we can start getting our splash together. I will be happy to help with any themeing stuff needed at the code level, however plimouth has a lot of plugins to do various things, as well as a scripting language to help do stuff, so we may have it easier this time then we did for usplash.

RT kernel 2.6.29.5 in karmic, request for testing.
Hi all In the next day or so, a new RT kernel will become available, version 2.6.29.5-2-rt. This kernel is a little different to the first 2.6.29 RT kernel for karmic, in that I have backported thee alsa code from 2.6.31-rc2, to make sure it lines up with the user space pieces. If you are running karmic, or you are thinking of running karmic, I encourage you to test this kernel, and let me know how things go for you, particularly relating to ALSA and how it works with pulseaudio or other audio/multimedia applications. In addition, I am also interested in hearing from users who have hardware that works in the 2.6.30/2.6.31 generic kernels, but doesn't work with the RT kernel. I don't intend to backport everything, but if there is enough demand for particular drivers, I will do my best to attempt to backport them. Sound wasn't too hard due to the kernel alsa code being used for older kernels as well, being part of the alsa-driver tarball, but I don't make any promices with any other drivers from newer kernels. I also don't intend to backport KMS (kernel mode setting), as that would likely be way too much work. So please give this new kernel a test when its available, and file bugs with any issues you find, or drivers you would like to see made available for your system. Regards Luke P.S. NVIDIA/ATI drivers should work without issue, at least once I upload a new revision of both to remove no longer needed patches. I can verify that NVIDIA is fine, as I am currently running it on the 2.6.29 RT kernel mentioned above without issue, but ATI users will need to test and give feedback.

I'd like to add that on a technical level, OSS v4 does audio mixing in the kernel, and uses floating point maths, which is strictly forbidden in the official mainline kernel.

Dropping ffmpeg, ffmpeg2theora, and kino from UbuntuStudio video task.
Hi all As a last minute fix, I've been asked to remove any packages from the UbuntuStudio disks that depends, or recommends ffmpeg/libavcodec52. This means that kino, ffmpeg, and ffmpeg2theora have to be removed from the disks. Unfortunately this only leaves 2 packages in the video task, stopmotion, and dvgram. The video task won't be removed, as its too much work, and too risky at this late stage of the release cycle, so for karmic, we will need to consider the future of the video task very carefully, having to look closely at any new app we would like to include, making sure it does not pull in libavcodec52. The reason libavcodec52 is not allowed on the disks is discussed in technical board resolution 2007-01-02. Unfortunately this is out of my hands, if you wish to discuss this further, please take it up with the technical board.

Video task available, but not on UbuntuStudio disks.
Hi all Further to my email earlier regarding video applications needing ffmpeg having to be removed from the UbuntuStudio disks, another application, stopmotion, has been found to need ffmpeg as well. Instead of having a video task with only one single application, a decision has been made to not include the video task on the UbuntuStudio DVD images. This is a compromise between having a useless video task, and still offering users a few useful apps to use. I am sorry there was no time to re-include applications such as openmovieeditor again, however this close to the release, this has been landed in my lap somewhat with only a short amount of time to resolve the issue. So what if I want to get some video applications set up on a fresh UbuntuStudio install? 1. Install the system as normal, and simply do not choose any extra tasks. The desktop will be installed for you, and be available when you reboot. 2. Connect to the internet (Sorry, at this point there is no other way to get video apps, as explained above), and use your package manager of choice to install ubuntustudio-video. This will install all the video applications that were on the UbuntuStudio 9.04 disks. On behalf of the UbuntuStudio developers, I would like to appologise for this lats minute change. As I've previously stated, this issue is somewhat out of our hands. I think I speak for the others when I say we will try to do the best we can to get video applications re-included on the DVD images for UbuntuStudio karmic, given we can find any that don't depend on ffmpeg, and are still useful, or if we can break up sed applications enough so that we can include those bits that don't require ffmpeg to function.

Exception granted for UbuntuStudio to shipp ffmpeg packages.
Hi once again The technical board have decided to grant UbuntuStudio and exception for shipping ffmpeg packages on the UbuntuStudio disks. This is because Canonical don't produce any physical media for UbuntuStudio, and therefore having ffmpeg on the disks is no different to having ffmeg on archive.ubuntu.com. This means that the video task will be back on the disk in full, and will be expanded again in Karmic.

openmovieeditor, libavcodec52, and disks.
Hi all I discovered that our disks ship the libavcodec52 package, which after a technical board decision back in 2007 is not allowed to be on Ubuntu disks, and I am assuming ours, since nobody has pulled us up about it. The problem is that openmovieeditor directly depends on libavcodec52. I am wondering whether openmovieeditor depends on that library enough that it won't function without it (I haven't checked in detail for myself yet). If it does, then we really need to consider our course of action here, as I don't think we should be shipping this library.

Judging from one thread I stumbled into [3], it seems they're aiming for a 2.6.26 kernel. The real issue here is hardware suport parity with the generic 2.6.28 kernel in jaunty. Users will find that hardware that they have may work with 2.6.28, but not with 2.6.26. its also very hard to keep restricted modules/DKMS packages working with two different kernel versions as well.

Now I'm wondering why this was not the default setting in stock Ubuntu install? Is this an overlooked part of OpenAL - PulseAduio integration? Can a bug be raised against this? If yes then against which package should it be raised? OpenAL or PulseAudio? Firstly, the bug should be filed against openal-soft, as thats where the change needs to be made. However, there is a problem with making this change. The pulse device for alsa is only available when the pulseaudio alsa plugin is used to send audio from alsa applications through pulseaudio. Things are set such that if the pulseaudio sound server is not running, the pulse device is not available. Without having confirmed it yet myself, I dare say that the applicatino using openal would stop working or carsh, if alsa says a device does not exist. If the application does crash, then this change cannot be made, because not all flavours of Ubuntu use pulseaudio, Xubuntu and Kubuntu come to mind here, and we want to make sure that any uses of sound on those flavours are not broken. If openal is behaving differently when using the default output as opposed to using a specific output, then there is something wrong with openal's alsa code, so far as I understand things anyway. I will do some testing myself to confirm all of this, and look into taking appropriate action to fix this for jaunty, and where possible, intrepid. If you could file a bug against openal-soft to make sure this is documented somewhere other than a mailing list, that would be great. Thanks.

Reconsideration of ubuntustudio-dev bugmail being sent to thd ev list.
Hi all I am starting to get somewhat frustrated with all our bugmail being sent to the dev list, purely because it affects my workflow. Prior to bugmail being sent here, it was sent individually to all members of the ubuntustudio-dev team, which for me at least, landed in its own folder. This meant that if I didn't want to immediately look at the ubuntustudio bug mail when doing an email check, I could skip it and come back later. Now however, this is not possible. In order to make sure I don't miss any developer posted emails to this list, I have to go through all new messages, including bugmail. I often find myself going to the now empty bugmail folder for ubuntustudio bugs, and then remember to have to check the ubuntustudio-dev folder instead. I understand if others would rather the way things are now, however I ask that we at least reconsider changing things back to the way they were. I also understand that sending bugmail to the list means that people who are not members of the ubuntustudio-dev team can see any bugmail that comes through, however I suggest that if they are interested in watching bugs for a package, that they subscribe themselves to the bugmail and watch it that way. Discussion welcome.

Re: [Bug 286621] Re: [dependancies] 'ubuntustudio-video' should install 'subtitleeditor'
Adding packages to a metapackage like ubuntustudio-video is actually done in quite a different way, and is a two step process. A bzr branch with files listing the packages that should be part of the metapaqckage needs to be modified to add the package in question. Then the ubuntustudio-meta package has to be re-generated to add the changes from the bzr branch. In order to change the branch, you have to be a member of the ubuntustudio-dev team in Launchpad. We are at RC freeze now, so we are out of time to add this package for intrepid, however it will be added for jaunty. affects ubuntu/ubuntustudio-meta status triaged assignee nobody importance wishlist ** Changed in: ubuntustudio-meta (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Wishlist Assignee: Alessio Treglia (quadrispro) = (unassigned) Status: Confirmed = Triaged -- [dependancies] 'ubuntustudio-video' should install 'subtitleeditor' https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/286621 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Studio-dev, which is subscribed to ubuntustudio-meta in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-Studio-devel mailing list Ubuntu-Studio-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-devel

Yes, this is because ubuntustudio-look pulls in ubuntustudio-sounds. THis will be changed for Intrepid.

However, surely I would haven't fired off an email, unless there was a complaint (sorry). Thanks for your kind words. Nothing is perfect, so anything from anyone that can possibly help make things better is worthwhile. I'm just a little appalled at the state of audio support on Linux (I believe this issue is not Ubuntu only); I was trying to have a conversation on the google chat (from within the browser) and since the chat has audio alerts, mplayer refused to play audio (while the chat is open). Just a little example of broken audio support. I do not know the cause, nor the solution to the problem, I wonder how ubuntu is trying to become mainstream and have mysterious issues, such as this. What does Google Chat use? Flash? Java? If you are using Ubuntu and GNOME, then its likely that whatever you are using is grabbing the sound device, and PulseAudio, the sound server for the Ubuntu desktop is unable to access the device, since whatever you are using in Firefox has exclusive use of the device. Its hard to say more without knowing what browser technology google chat uses. If you could tell me what it uses, then I will be able to more quickly help you work out a solution, or a workaround.
