freecad packages for Ubuntu
Hi there. I'm needing some features that are in FreeCAD 18.5 or later. What are the odds of seeing FreeCAD 19.2 or 20.1 in the focal-backports repository so those of us running Ubuntu LTS releases (and other distros based on Ubuntu LTS releases) can get an updated version through the backports repository? I'm a FreeCAD user on Ubuntu 20.04LTS (by way of Linux Mint). Currently, the package in the Ubuntu Focal repositories is FreeCad version 18.4, and there's nothing in the focal-backports repository for a newer version. I do see 19.2 is in the jammy and kinetic repositories, and the current 20.1 version is in kinetic-proposed. Can either of these version s be put in focal-backports? That's what the backports repository is for. PS, if you need some testing (and have test scripts I can run or whatever), I might be able to help with that some. I'm a user, not a software developer, but I do have some technical experience, even in the software development arena (from long ago in a previous lifetime/career). -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
Re: Call for nominations: Developer Membership Board
Since we have not yet enough nominations and it was the same situation at last election 2 years ago, I started to think about what can be changed in our approach. One thing that comes to my mind is what if the nomination were public ? Right now it is private and only visible to the DMB team. It is only public once the condorcet vote officially start. Would it helps having more folks nominating themselves (ripple effect) if they see someone they know give it a try ? Would it make the nomination less intimidating for some individuals ?

Re: [ubuntu-studio-devel] ubuntu-studio-devel Digest, Vol 85, Issue 5
The trouble with creating such a list is the sheer upkeep of said list. There are bug listings and some blueprints in launchpad (on my phone now so I don't have the links), but the development team does much more than that. Art for each release (icons, wallpapers, etc...), documentation for new procedures, testing on various platforms, finding new features to add (new program releases), packaging new programs, etc... the list is large and constantly changing. Well it's either constantly changing or it's too generic to be meaningful.

New Developer
Hello. I have had a passion for Ubuntu and open source several years now, and although I attempted many times to jump in to contributing, I could never seem to find the courage or correct place to start. So, I'm writing this in the hopes that someone might point me in the correct direction. I have read all the beginning development guides, and while the information there was helpful, I couldn't pinpoint a place for me to begin working. I'm looking for some tasks that require less of a learning curve that I can start immediately. I have already looked at the ubuntu bug tracker, but I could not seem to find a good starting place there as most of the bugs seemed rather specific to a certain program or technology that I am unfamiliar with, but would like to eventually! Anyway, I hope this reaches the ears of someone who can help me, as I am quite eager to begin working. -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
Re: Making Studio work with more than one DE
This really was one of the most dramatic train/thread derailments I've seen in a while. Impressive. As far as other desktop environments are concerned, part of me is in favour of this mindset being adopted (as I've never left gnome despite Ubuntu Studio's switch to xfce - I just don't like that DE). If a modular front end was adopted then it would encourage wider usage and a better overall design. However, what Hartmut may have been trying to state was that this is development is probably not the best use of developer's time. There have almost always been stability issues, bugs, and lack of documentation in Ubuntu Studio that the user sees as more drastic to their workflow than annoying quirks from the given DE. So yeah, apply force to the major problems, but it would be a prudent philosophy to reduce the amount of xfce-specific code that ships with the distro. We don't know how long into the future the xfce platform will best suit our needs (very little warning was given during the gnome/unity move that prompted our switch to xfce in the first place), and the lack of DE-specific code the easier it will be for those of us who love a different DE to just switch. -Eric Hedekar * Eric Hedekar *http://www.erichedekar.com On Wed, May 22, 2013 at 10:32 AM, Ralf Mardorf ralf.mard...@alice-dsl.netwrote: Getting audio working for audio production, with some bloated desktop environments is not very useful. Some desktop environemts do start a chunk of services by default to automagically enable usage for many things, so the user needs to customize those desktops for audio work, or somebody from the community has to do it. There are common workflows for pro-audio work and even while I could add a list of odd things, caused by Xfce, it's a sane choice to use it as the default for Ubuntu Studio. I'm using it on other Linux installs too. Pulseaudio is something that should be discussed. It's not an issue to have it installed and to disable it, but it's an issue for users who start sessions by scripts, if there is the need to start qjackctl, but to kill qjackctl.real or what ever it's called ;). I don't remember what the qjackctl(.fake)-script does and can't take a look at it at the moment, but IIRC it did something that also could be started by qjackctl, instead of naming a script qjackctl and then let it start qjackctl.real. IMO it's already annoying if I need to start an app by it's name, but to kill it by killing python, however, this at least makes sense, while this qjackctl.thingy is an exotic Ubuntu Studio unique thing, that IMO isn't well thought out.

We have had some of this stuff before and there has been issues with 64bit ISO builds as I recall. In other words a 64bit machine can load wine but the ISO still doesn't build. We had that problem before we went to live ISO... so there would be another problem as well. When wine loads it grabs the windows fonts which are free but licensed. The user has to ok the license. I don't know that this would be possible with ubiquity... Doesn't work with jackd. It may be best to leave it as extra SW. Interesting thing is that as installed, the software center can't see LMMS even though synaptic can. The sources have to be added under other software - Canonical Partners and/or Independent, before it shows up. This may mean it is not considered to be _in_ the ubuntu repos. Also after ISO install software center can't install software until the update manager has been run at least once (bug reported and confirmed, seems not to be a US problem). -- Len Ovens www.OvenWerks.net Quite right. There are licensing issues that LMMS is currently built with in the repos that we can't exactly include by default. It would take a lot of work to tweak and maintain a different LMMS build, and even then we'd be creating a reduced feature set for the end user and those who really want to use the program would likely install a different version (or be discouraged by our included version and not use the program at all). It's probably best to stick with more fully open and free software, suggesting LMMS to those interested in using VST-based production methods, possibly via a suggestion in our help documents. - Eric Hedekar -- 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

The LMMS binary is built upstream in Debian and inherited into Ubuntu. So disabling the wine dependency (and thus VST support) would then disable it for all Debian distributions. I don't believe this is an option worth considering. Wouldn't listing the fonts package in the blacklist seed stop the live ISO from adding that? I think we should try it. I think it would do one of three things: 1) apt will try and install it anyway and the ISO won't build 2) apt will add it to the stuff that needs to be installed but won't because of the blacklist and so will download the installer at install time and at first update will run the installer and the user will get the license screen. 3) the font will not install and the user will not be able to install afterwards either (because of black list - I don't think so) 4) (where did this come from?) the font will not install but the user will be able to install latter. 1 and 3 are bad, 2 and 4 are ok. 1a) apt will add it to the ISO build but the accept will not happen so it won't load... this may be ok. So now its five things :) I'm not exactly sure what will take place if the recommended font package gets blacklisted. I'm also not sure of the legality of this - i.e. will the font package in question appear on our ISO and do we have legal rights to do this with our/ubuntu's distribution policies? I will say that the users may complain that wine does not run nicely unless these fonts are installed after. If you've blacklisted the fonts then can they ever install them without throwing a conflict error? There's a lot of testing that will need to be worked on here. Wine is quite a big element of many people's computers. Be careful what you blacklist. Fairly soon I think some MOTU consultation should take place on this matter.

Thanks everybody Regards, Howard Chan (smartboyhw) -- 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 I think characterizing this as a crucial part of the system might be misrepresenting LMMS as I think Ubuntu Studio is quite functional in numerous use cases. We should also consider how many people are asking for LMMS. If we included every application asked for, we would easily oversize the 4gig image. I have been worried about making everyone download extra megs (oh, won't someone think of the bandwidth) because one person said we should include something. However, I am not opposed to including it. I just want to make sure we evaluate the inclusion on it's own merits, that we are supported a complete work flow (i.e. there are no other applications needed to support getting the task done), and the user demand warrants inclusion. I look forward to other's input. ScottL I think it's a valid addition. I know some people prefer this kind of applications to Qtractor or Ardour. On their homepage they make reference to LMMS being a Linux alternative to FL Studio. In my experience there are FL Studio people, and then there is the other kind. Don't use it myself, but I definitely think it fills a workflow hole for a good portion of people. i found LMMS to be crashy in 10.04... and i havent used it since really. if its stable and something that others want added, im OK with that. i always thought that even if it worked and was stable, my opinion was that it was toy-ish... we cant include *everything* and there are some key pieces of my workflow that are not installed that i have no issues with installing on my own. however, if someone wants to host a meeting, and vote on the inclusion of LMMS, i'll come and participate, and not vote it down, since i have no strong opinions other than it needs to be stable. -- 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 -- MH mikeholstein.info http://www.mikeholstein.info/ -- 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 This is certainly not the first discussion we've had about including LMMS, and it probably won't be the last. None of the past conversations have come to a conclusion that it should be included as there are other more polished tools that complete the same or similar workflow. LMMS has had stability issues in the past but maybe it's outgrown these now. My personal vote would be to include it in the 'suggested install' section and leave it off the actual disk. It's possible that reorganization of the workflows and meta packages could find a slot where LMMS fits perfectly, but I don't believe there's a spot it would fill right now. -Eric Hedekar -- 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

Re: a2jmidid auto start
Well many people don't know about a2jmidid so if we start seeing a lot of apps using the new platform it would be good to have it automagically running behind the scenes. This type of sctipt would be perfect to integrate into Ubuntu Studio Controls so users can turn the script on/off.

I don't know if it is worth while making that a default or not. Not for 12.04 because most of the midi apps aren't jack. I think there will be a number of people using ardour and hydrogen... even adding tracker and qtracker and qsynth doesn't need a2j.

I'm not so sold on having the old blurry lights image in the header, but upon looking at more screenshots it started to fade into the background. A few nitpicky items do jump to mind: 1) The admin link should not be anywhere on the site. All the people who have access to the admin of the site, know how to get there without the clickable link. This just encourages attempted security intrusions. 2) Is there a usecase for a user profile page? i.e. who will have authority to create content on the site? 3) Can we see a few screenshots outside of the admin login (i.e. a new blog post or story without the edit links above)? And one not-so nitpicky thing that could be a major thorn for us eventually; the twitter feed - which is a great idea (I'm fine with just grabbing any #ubuntustudio hashtag post) - inherently relies on a new drupal module being loaded to the site. Any new drupal module will need to undergo a full scrutiny by Cannonical's web security team before their admins okay its upload. This means we need to decide upon which modules we'll need for this web update/revamp sooner rather than later and get that process underway. Nice work so far. It does look like I'm going to have a free day every two weeks or so (starting in about a month) to chime in more than I have been and help with the implementation work.

Re: Ubuntu Studio 11.10 UI discussion. GNOME3, Unity, XFCE and Studio users workflow.
I for one, have spent the past ten years using the Gnome interface and feel very comfortable in it. So much so that I anticipate UI annoyances to drive me away from Ubuntu if they stick with Ubiquity. Sorry if that's a rant/uncompromising attitude, I just wanted to share with the group my honest and heartfelt feelings on the subject (and yes I have been giving Ubiquity a steady test run over the last year or so).

It is safe to replace this at will. Because ttf-symbol-replacement-wine1.X is not in ubuntu's repositories but rather in a non-Ubuntu-Studio related PPA I personally don't agree with the requested change to the font-meta. We should not be listing non-repository packages in our metas unless the Ubuntu Studio team has a direct connection to them.

I can see our forum separated into different categories such as Development, Bugs, Troubleshooting etc. However, in regards to art, the forum should be divided into several subforums: -Logo Design -Theme/Icon Design -Website Design/Improvements Moderators will also stick threads that they feel are becoming popular, or increasingly productive. This kind of structure will allow artists to not only upload their work quickly and effectively, but also pass their work through a medium that offers a community of critics. Forgive me if I sound intrusive, but I envision the future of Ubuntu Studio as being a well-respected linux distro focused on multimedia creation. A distro that offers artists, musicians, animators, and directors the chance to create their work on an open-source platform that is stable, efficient, graphically appealing, and simple. We really have a chance here to continue developing something magnificent, and in order to do so, we need a more tightly knit community. I agree forums are all that, but as an officially recognised derivative of Ubuntu, we need to make use of officially sanctioned areas. this isnt to say we cannot have our own, but that if possible, we should work with existing facilities. Second, by utilising the part of Ubuntu forums we have been given, we gain access to a lot more viewers, and thus a lot more possible contributors. If a decision is made that we need more room in the forums, or a different structure, I am well familiar with the members of the forums council and can do the necessary liason work to make it happen. If you have time, please join our IRC channel and feel free to have a chat to us in realtime about it there. Jussi, I personally greatly agree with your take on forums. Maintaining our own seems silly at best - we would also need to deal with errors of general ubuntu, beginners, etc... in our own forum and there are some excellent users within the Multimedia Production section. I do think that we could use a different category/organization on ubuntuforums.org as Multimedia Production has very little branding of our project. In my mind, the question is: What forum sections should we ask for? My personal opinion on that question is that Ubuntu Studio should become a section similar to the Development and Programming section. Within that, there should be a sections on Audio, Video, Graphic Design, and Gallery. It would be great if we could integrate the look of our forum sections with our website, but I'm not sure how practical that is. -Eric Hedekar -- 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

Ubuntu Studio Testers team on Launchpad
Hi all, This is an announcement about a new community team dedicated to testing Ubuntu Studio. We'd love your participation in this community. It's clear that the testing portion of our development cycle needs more manpower, and it's also one of the areas that has a low barrier for entry for members. It's quite easy to test Ubuntu Studio provided you're comfortable running the development release and reporting bugs. This community will hopefully bring the people currently testing Ubuntu Studio together, encourage more people to join and test Ubuntu Studio, and as a result, make Ubuntu Studio rock solid. We really do need your help with this. As a start for this community, we've created a Launchpad team at https://launchpad.net/~ubuntustudio-testers complete with a mailing list at ubuntustudio-test...@lists.launchpad.net for the team to discuss anything and everything releated to testing Ubuntu Studio. Please join this launchpad team and subscribe yourself to the mailing list. As the community grows we will surely evolve to have more communication channels, but for now this is a great start. If you're confident enough to run the development release of Ubuntu Studio and report bugs you find, please sign up for this launchpad team. Thanks for your time. - Eric Hedekar https://launchpad.net/~ubuntustudio-testers -- 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
Testing Team
Cory suggested on IRC that I write a quick proposal on this and run it by the list, so here goes (please offer any opinion you may have on the matter): I'd like to create an Ubuntu Studio Testers team on Launchpad. The purpose of this team would be to thoroughly test the development version of Ubuntu Studio. This team would help to solve a number of current testing issues/problems, they include but are not limited to: - No/small testing community. We currently only have a user and development community structure. This team would create belonging amongst testers which would likely result in more active testing (I've received a handful of direct e-mails re:testing Ubuntu Studio). People would have to actively remove themselves from the testing group to stop receiving notifications e-mails, rather than just forgetting about their commitment. - No formal communication channel for testers. Currently testing results are published to the entire ubuntu studio development or users mailing list (inconsistent behavior) - there's no formal policy for how to report test results (other than ISO test results). This team would include a launchpad mailing list that would allow for questions on testing, testing coordination, discussion of test results, and subscription to the ISO build notifier, all without overburdening either the users or dev mailing lists. This would also allow for a larger number of testing requests without annoying our user base. - Lack of organized testing. We currently only have organized ISO testing. This team would be in charge of building a suite of tests for Ubuntu Studio and ensuring that they are met across releases, this includes notifying the developers should the tests fail. I would imagine this team could be used to follow important bugs, create testing scripts, and build wiki documentation on testing the software shipped with Ubuntu Studio. I'd be quite willing to create and lead this team, as well as announce it's creation on the ubuntu studio mailing lists, qa mailing list, and bugsquad mailing list. Essentially I'd like to create a means for Ubuntu Studio testers to work together more effectively. - Eric Hedekar ___ Vice President of Vancouver Pro Musica Society http://www.vancouverpromusica.ca Ubuntu Studio Developer http://www.ubuntustudio.org Web Designer Audio Artist http://www.erichedekar.com -- 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

Ubuntu Studio 9.10 Karmic Koala
Ubuntu Studio is a multimedia editing/creation flavor of Ubuntu, built for the GNU/Linux audio, video, and graphics enthusiast or professional. http://www.ubuntustudio.org The Ubuntu Studio team is proud to announce its sixth release: Ubuntu Studio 9.10 Karmic Koala. With this release, which you can download in a 1.4GB DVD, Ubuntu Studio offers a pre-made selection of packages, targeted at audio producers, video producers and graphic designers. Ubuntu Studio greatly simplifies the Linux-based multimedia workstation. Downloads of the install DVD are available here: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntustudio/releases/9.10/release For Ubuntu Studio 9.10 we have continued to grow our feature set, update packages, and fix critical bugs to better the Ubuntu Studio user experience. We are happy to announce that the real time kernel will be an official upstream release patch. It will be installed by default if the audio task is selected. We have tested it heavily and are very happy with it's performance in audio environments. Features/Improvements: * Official upstream RT kernel release (i.e. it's very stable) * Font meta package added to the graphics meta, which installs literally hundreds of free fonts * Xwax (http://xwax.co.uk) and a2jmidid (http://home.gna.org/a2jmidid/) packaged and added to the audio meta-package * Xjadeo (http://xjadeo.sourceforge.net/) added to the video meta * Network tools like NetworkManager and Pidgin will be available on the DVD disc repository but not installed by default * Firewire libraries are now upgraded to 2.0 * MANY newer versions of applications (Ardour, Gimp, Blender, Inkscape, Audacity, Kino, Scribus, Denemo, Hugin, etc...) for exact versions please see: http://packages.ubuntu.com See the Ubuntu release notes for other non Ubuntu Studio specific changes. As our wiki page at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStudio states, our aim is to make it more accessible for new users to get into the tools that GNU/Linux has to offer for multimedia creation and production. We also want to spotlight what's out there, and show users tools they might not know to exist.

Others will need to update them also. During the weekend I also looked at the Installation and GettingStarted pages that Eric mentioned. Obviously, the installation page need some work but I felt that we should probably address installing the current and LTS versions of Ubuntu Studio and also upgrading from the current and the LTS version of Ubuntu only. No point in telling people how to install/upgrade Feisty. Just my two cents. As I read the GettingStarted page I felt like this was a microcosm for the entire wiki. By this I mean it's focus is diffused and lacked overall structure. Yes, the page in a logical order, but the information about adding the -rt kernel should probably be on a upgrade from Ubuntu page. Defining JACK and how to set it up should like wise be addressed on it's own pertinent and dedicated page. What this probably means is that the wiki pages would benefit from some restructuring. Over this weekend I spent time mind mapping the wiki and hopefully by next weekend I will have mockups available on the wiki. Which leads me to my next question: Does anyone object to me making temporary new pages? For the time being it would be duplicate information (parsed out from existing pages and condensed) with some additional text/structure. We would need to be able to delete some of those pages at a later date and I don't know who has rights.

As for the Upgrade/Installation page, both Feisty and Gutsy are no longer officially supported so any materials for those anywhere on the wiki can happily be deleted. I also think the upgrade process doesn't really need to be split into release versions, it did back when Ubuntu Studio first started, but not any more, so those pages could be combined into one. -Eric -- 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
Upcoming Ubuntu Studio Developers Meeting
Hey Everyone, I just wanted to send a reminder about our upcoming team meeting in ten days. It's non-mandatory but highly recommended. It is scheduled for October 12th at 7pm UTC n #ubuntu-meeting on freenode.net. The agenda can be found and edited at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStudio/Meetings/2009Oct12we may also want to cover some of the topics on last months meeting agenda https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStudio/Meetings/2009Sept14 as the attendance to that meeting was quite poor.

Jack inclusion in Main
In Bug #416778 ( https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/416778 ) Loïc Minier has requested further public discussion on the subject of Jack Audio Server http://jackaudio.org/ being included in the Main repositories. I was told this list would be the best place for that discussion. I am also CCing the ubuntu-studio-devel@lists.ubuntu.com because the Ubuntu Studio team has been the driving force behind this inclusion request and are extremely knowledgeable in regards to JACK. Here are a couple of my thoughts on the matter as to why Jack should be included in Main. - Many bugs have been filed against various audio servers currently in Main (xine, alsa, portaudio, pulseaudio) requesting that the JACK bridge/plugin/output/etc... be turned on or compiled into the package - this is not possible without the inclusion of Jack in Main. Bugs #152487, #84900, #109659, and #360590 (this may not be a complete list, and duplicates of most of these have been filed). - The libffado drivers for firewire soundcards ( http://www.ffado.org ) are only supported by the Jack driver. This makes these common, pro, semi-pro, and hobbyist audio cards inaccessible for most applications without the previous audio server bridges/plugins/outputs to jack available. Owners of these cards must recompile major audio drivers in order to get basic Ubuntu sound. - Jack is an audio server designed specifically for professional reliable audio signals. This is not a duplicate server clogging up the audio mess, which some people believe exists in Linux, it is a specialty tool for musicians, audio engineers, and anyone using Linux for professional audio. (In-fact if anything, allowing the aforementioned bugs to get fixed would clean up a large chunk of the audio mess which some believe exists. It would at least stop a large segment of people from griping so loudly about and attempting to remove PulseAudio.)

Re: Ubuntu Studio Art Manager
On Mon, Aug 17, 2009 at 3:39 PM, Kiernan Holland roftho...@gmail.comwrote: I could contribute some things, but I don't know about being a art manager.. If you could put together a package of the images of a complete package, it would give us something to play around with, and I'm sure someone could come up with some themes, but it's not clear where these bitmaps reside. Also I could arrange to make blender blend files that would manage the compositing and texturing/lighting/rendering of the elements, which is something you can do with blender. You can run blender like a blackbox, providing input and generating output, I once wrangled and animation unattended from a Makefile. I think any single theme, is a bad idea.. IF it's going to be about creativity, it should permit a wide range of themes, and these should be community created.. That means the elements should be accessible and selective by the community, as what good is a creative operating system if the elements of the interface are not being created by it's creative users. Hi Kiernan, I'm glad to see you're interested in helping. Just for your (and everyone else's) knowledge, the entire Ubuntu Studio official graphics (and everything else that makes Ubuntu Studio what it is) is located at https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntustudio-dev for everyone's perusal. Specifically you'll find the ubuntustudio-look package here too: https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntustudio-dev/ubuntustudio-look/UbuntuStudio Feel free to create a bzr branch of your own modifications to that package at anytime, then a merge can be proposed and possibly approved to get your changes into the official set.

Ubuntu Studio Art Manager
Hey Everyone, I just wanted to raise the subject of Art development and management within Ubuntu Studio. As many of you may know, Cory Kontros has stepped away from the project for personal reasons and he had previously been spearheading the art portion of Ubuntu Studio. It's my opinion that Cory left us with a great default art set, but if it's left to sit still, chances are our users will find it stale soon enough. That's why I'd like to put a call out for a new art manager. The ideal candidate will not be placed directly into this position, she/he will have to show they deserve it. However, they should have knowledge of theming all aspects of the gnome desktop (including boot splash and GDM). Is anyone out there interested? I think the first step is to upload your work/modifications/etc... to either a new launchpad bzr or to the user art page in the wiki. Second step would be to talk to the dev team in either #ubuntustudio-devel or on the development mailing list. -Eric -- ___ http://greyrockstudio.blogspot.com -- 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
Re: Addition(s) to the Video Meta package
After looking into getting LiVES packaged for Ubuntu, it looks like it won't happen unless there are changes made upstream (i.e. in the LiVES source code). The folder titled libOSC in the LiVES tarball contains files that are under a non-free license. These files will prevent any package from being accepted into the Ubuntu archives and thus prevent it from being part of Ubuntu Studio. Sorry for the bad news, hopefully this can be changed upstream in future releases. -Eric Hedekar On Sun, Aug 2, 2009 at 3:03 PM, Eric Hedekar aftertheb...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Ronan, I'm not sure what troubles you're having with your mailing list registration (I did get your first response to my e-mail - where you cc'ed Salsaman).

Addition(s) to the Video Meta package
Hi Everyone, I've seen a number of posts to the forums asking about live video adjustment software, VJ software and the like. There actually is a large amount of this available for Linux but none in the Ubuntu Studio video meta package. Here's a quick list of what I've stumbled upon: * FreeJ http://freej.org/ packaged: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=freej * EffecTV http://effectv.sourceforge.net/ packaged: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=effectv * frei0r plugins: http://www.piksel.org/frei0r packaged: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=frei0r-plugins (more of a library than a software package) * GEM library for Pure Data http://gem.iem.at/ packaged: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=gem * PDvjtools http://artefacte.org/pd/ not packaged (yet) * VeeJay http://www.veejayhq.net/not packaged (yet) * Gephex http://www.gephex.org/ not packaged (yet) * Lives http://lives.sourceforge.net/ not packaged (yet) Personally I think any one of these softwares would make a great addition to the video meta package, but seeing as I'm not a video junkie I really am not sure if they'll get used. This e-mail is to judge public interest/support for such an addition to the meta, and if it's positive, which of the above (or possibly one I haven't listed) would be best? Logically, adding one that's already in the repositories would be easiest for Karmic, but if packaging wasn't a stumbling block I'd prefer to see VeeJay added (purely based on the look of it's user interface). The libraries for Pure Data would also be nice additions since Pure Data is already included in the audio meta. FreeJ also looks good.

I did a demo of freemix and while doing it said a few words about Ubuntu Studio \m/ June 28th is going to be complicated for me. I'm taking that week off from work, going back to the Canary Islands and from the 26th of June to the 2nd of July will be sailing with my parents. Which is the big problem, I will be losing communication with the world every now and then, and internet connection is going to be really scarce. From the 3rd of July to the 11th I will still be in the Canary Islands but settled home attending GUADEC (anybody else going?) So anytime those does is great, I dont mind doing a crazy hour in the night. Then back to Dublin, where once again I will be always available. Sorry about the inconvenience, Luis So if you leave on the 26th and essentially won't be available until the 11th or so, should we go forth with the plans for a meeting at Midnight UTC June 24th as Luke had suggested? Or Luis could you suggest a better time that would work for you? -Eric The night of the 24th is good for me. Luis Okay, well I think it's as good a time as any. Let's set it for Midnight UTC on June 24th (going on 25th) and send out announcements right away. Where should we have it? #ubuntustudio-devel or #ubuntustudio? I assume we'll announce it to the user list as well as the dev list? I might be able to write that up in about 10hours, but if anyone wants to beat me to the punch, go right ahead. -Eric -- ___ http://greyrockstudio.blogspot.com -- 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

Cory might get angry. But anyways, I've registered my available times (unfortunately this weekend isn't very good for me). I will try to run some tests later this week (on non-rt jack - both jaunty and karmic) to confirm/deny my need for RT. Oh and if I happen to not be able to make the meeting time, put my name into the hat for assisting with the website love. -Eric Hedekar -- ___ http://greyrockstudio.blogspot.com -- 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

Please reply to this message suggesting possible times, and I will see what suits me, since I am at UDS. Thanks Luke I'm at -08:00 from UTC so I'd prefer something not too early, more like evening time UTC.

Re: New application: jackpanel, how to contribute?
On Sun, Apr 26, 2009 at 3:54 PM, Hans Baier hansfba...@googlemail.comwrote: Hi, I wrote a GNOME panel applet as a replacement for qjackctl: http://www.hans-baier.de/wordpress/jackpanel (depends on libprolooks: http://www.hans-baier.de/wordpress/libprolooks) I already debianized it, and I currently develop on Hardy. How can I contribute it / make it ready for the next release of ubuntustudio? Thanks, Hans Hi Hans, Your application looks interesting (haven't had time to give it an install yet). The first step after you've debianized it would be to also debianize libprolooks (a little harder task). Then you'll need to get both of them accepted into the universe repositories (if you want them to eventually become part of Ubuntu Studio). The way you get a package accepted: http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/ (here's a little howto: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Packages/REVU ) it also helps to prod motu people in #ubuntu-motu for help on this (they're the guys who will eventually okay your packages). If you want it in Karmic Koala, the deadline for acceptance is August 27th. After it's in the repositories then Ubuntu Studio devs can consider it for inclusion into the meta packages (I like the idea). If that sounds like too much work let us know and we may be able to attempt to package it through REVU (though there's lots of packages on that wishlist). Also, you might be interested in taking a look at LADITools: http://www.marcochapeau.org/software/laditools they also have created an applet for Jack use/control. -Eric -- ___ http://greyrockstudio.blogspot.com -- 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
9.04 announce? website update?
So the official 9.04 announcement went out a good seven+ hours ago, which included a link to http://www.ubuntustudio.org/downloads however there have been zero updates to the Ubuntu Studio webpage and that link directs people to download 8.10 Is there a reason for the delayed Ubuntu Studio release? I see images up at http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntustudio/releases/9.04/release/ but I've yet to see any links pointing people there, or release notes publicized. Infact the working release notes don't even publicize that link. what gives? we're so close to finishing the release cycle, let's not quit an inch from the goal line. -Eric -- ___ http://greyrockstudio.blogspot.com -- 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
