Hi Gerhard,


Hi Erich,

I understand your frustration about firewire management in linux kernels.
But wasn't it good practice in Linux, to keep alive even vintage hardware?

That wasn't my call. We just could not implement the FFADO items in Ubuntu 
Studio Controls.
  

We have to be forward-thinking and not stuck in the past on many

decisions, otherwise we become irrelevant.

Ok, you might have to earn your livelihood, but I think, this is a horrible
statement, please don't reproduce silly coach speek.

Woah woah woah. You think I get PAID to do this?!? I wish. I'm a volunteer just 
like most people doing anything with Ubuntu.

Ubuntu 2012 was great with my firewire interface, near zero latency.

why not force Alsa and FFado developers into colaboration?

I'll begin to compile kernels again.

By the way, best thanks for your engagement in Ubuntu-Studio

Hi Glenn,

Due to kernel compatibility reasons, Firewire devices are no longer
supported.

Can you go into a little more detail on that? Is this a permanent change? Is
Firewire no longer supported by the kernel?


It's actually pretty simple. The kernel has a Firewire module in ALSA that 
conflicts with FFADO. We attempted to make Ubuntu Studio Controls compatible, 
but it proved to be impossible. In order for FFADO to work, one must blacklist 
the ALSA Firewire module in the kernel. This is something one must know how to 
do and be comfortable with doing, we can't do it for you.

Basically, firewire devices are a crapshoot. If you plug it in and it just 
works, then awesome, glad it does. If it doesn't, sorry, but we can't help you 
get it working.

Additionally, Firewire devices are ancient and no longer being manufactured. We 
are not in the business of reviving old hardware; that's not the purpose of 
Ubuntu Studio. So, going forward, we simply aren't making an effort to support 
Firewire devices because that would mean fighting with the kernel, which is not 
something our small team is willing to do.

USB devices and PCI devices are the future going forward, because that's what 
hardware manufacturers are actually producing. We have to be forward-thinking 
and not stuck in the past on many decisions, otherwise we become irrelevant.

Are there other recording programs I should consider? As long as the

I've had problems with pd-l2ork installations myself, and it is mainly
because of bad packaging. Probably the package is only installable on
certain Ubuntu releases. You should inform the packagers about this
problem, and specifically let them know on which release you are unable
to install it, and hopefully they can fix it soon.


Packagers are informed. The last release ubuntustudio 16.04
is affected, in 14.04 it works.


That's unless you are willing to find the fix by looking at the
problematic dependencies, and see if you can use installable
dependencies (like libgsl2) just as well, and then rebuild the package
with the fixes to the packaging.


Not just a problem of my willing but of my abilities, need guiding hands ;)

Re: rt kernel

2011-04-03 Thread Gerhard Lang
On my maverick partition I did not see essential benefits against lucid, 
so I did an early distupgrade to natty. The actual kernel 
2.6.38-7-generic gives me good audioperformance for live softsynths, 
live effects, wineasio/reaper, ardour multitrack recording on firewire, 
pci alsa and usb-midi, in no way inferior to realtime 2.6.31 and .33 
kernels, good buffersize/xrun ratio. For tedious audio work on standard 
hardware I see no more need for -rt kernels. I guess there might be a 
little profit for audio performance by compiling actual kernel cgroups 
disabled, no tics disabled, preemptible kernel enabled and  timer 
frequency set to 1000hz. In future optional manipulating devices' IRQ 
assignment and priorities like this was done by rtirq should be a 
feature for standard kernels.

best regards
Gerhard

Re: Kernel-rt issues solved, but configuring X still is a PITA

2010-12-27 Thread Gerhard Lang
Hi Ralf,
nvidia prop drivers for your card never will  build with new 
rt-kernels.  I see you compile customized kernels. I'd recommend trying 
2.3.36.xxx and even 2.6.37-rcxx with preempt settings. They run here on 
a geriatric amd64x2 machine under lucid (10.04) ubuntustudio/kx mashing  
with proprietary nvidia drivers, full rt support. Only missing against 
rt-kernels is the possibility to adjust rtirq settings which as I see 
*possibly* *might*  give *a* *little* benefit *only* for ffado/firewire 
devices. Nevertheless I hope someone will implemet this rtirq tweaking 
stuff into mainline kernels.

 Hi :)

 I build a kernel-rt for an upgraded Ubuntu Studio 10.04 Lucid, testing 
 a knack still to get an initrd, when building it by make-kpkg. This 
 mail is on HTML to enable copy and paste.

 SOLVED

 I now can build an initrd for self build kernels.
 I now can start a kernel-rt from the repositories.

 NEW AND UNSOLVED ISSUE

 The monitor resolution for the GDM login menu is 'broken'.

 ### Preparing to build the kernel

 $ cd /usr/src
 $ ls linux -l
 lrwxrwxrwx 1 spinymouse src 19 2010-10-03 02:39 linux - 
 linux-2.6.33.7-rt29

 ### Extracting the sources and patching the kernel

 $ tar xjf linux-2.6.33.7.tar.bz2
 $ rm linux-2.6.33.7.tar.bz2
 $ mv linux-2.6.33.7 linux-2.6.33.7.2-rt30
 $ cd linux
 $ bunzip2 ../patch-2.6.33.7.2-rt30.bz2
 $ patch -p1  ../patch-2.6.33.7.2-rt30
 $ rm ../patch-2.6.33.7.2-rt30


 ### Editing a configuration

 $ uname -a
 Linux ubuntu 2.6.32-27-preempt #49-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT Thu Dec 2 
 03:21:34 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux
 $ cp /boot/config-$(uname -r) .config
 $ make oldconfig
 Pushing enter only.


 ### Disabling staging, without testing if it's needed to to disable it 
 for building the current kernel

 $ gedit .config
 Editing
 CONFIG_STAGING=y
 to
 # CONFIG_STAGING is not set
 $ make oldconfig
 Nothing to do.


 ### Building the kernel

 $ make-kpkg clean
 $ export CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=2
 $ make-kpkg --rootcmd fakeroot --initrd kernel-image kernel-headers 
 kernel-source


 ### Unfortunately there wasn't enough free disk space when I first 
 build the kernel.

 OT: Btw. is there a list of apps that can be removed from Ubuntu 
 Studio, without getting issues? I e.g. don't need AppAmor, Firewalls 
 etc. and especially I would like to get rid of PulseAudio. [End OT]


 ### After removing some old kernel stuff and the already new build 
 image and headers, I build the kernel again, but I guess it would have 
 been ok, if I just would have installed the image and headers, because 
 only the unneeded source was missing. I also think,  that not running 
 'make-kpkg clean' again, would have made the repeated compiling 
 faster, but I dunno.

 $ rm -r ../*rt29*
 $ rm ../linux-h* ../linux-i*

hi, firewire-driver is the right one, not freebob.
To avoid xruns we have to do some other tweaking like adjusting sampling 
rate, frames, buffers and periods  in qjackctl  for latency around 8 - 
16 ms, stop  cpu frequency governor ondemand and select performance or 
userspace

irq priority for firewire device

2010-10-23 Thread Gerhard Lang
Hi,
would it be possible to make something like rtirq working in a full 
preempt and noticks-disabled vanilla kernel without rt-patching?
As far as I can see adjusting IRQ priorities seems to be essential for 
firewire-audio as long as firewire's IRQ-priority is subordinated at the 
low end by default, and if this could be changed in a user friendly way 
I'd see no more need for rt-patching kernels.
I compared all kernel mods for audio live performance and recording in 
practice, and the only feature I really miss in non-rt-kernels is this 
rtirq thing. But I'm no coder and need guiding hands for understanding 
deeper kernel and os matters, so please bear with me if this idea should 
be foolish, misplaced  or redundant/obsolete.
Best regards Gerhard

But I had to decide: After installing this driver in rt  proprietary 
nvidia  no longer was working for mainline generic and preempt kernels. 
I don't know and found nothing about running different kernel - 
graphicsdriver combinations persistent in one single Linux System. It's 
not just broken dkms but deeper incompatibilities between kernel

 Hi :)

 today I tried Ubuntu Studio again, but I had no time to work on the
 realtime kernel issue, because I got some new issues.

 1.

 After updating apps and the non-realtime kernel, my manually edited
 grub.cfg was automatically overwritten by a completely grotesque
 grub.cfg, without an automatically backup of the original. So tomorrow
 I'll have to do a hard job to make all my really existing kernels and
 Linuxes bootable again and those who are already bootable needs to get
 rid of those annoying boot splashes, unfortunately I didn't backup it
 myself.

 2.

 I tried to play a MP3 by Movie Player, the PA setting meters show
 output, optional for one or the other of my two Terratec EWX 24/96 sound
 cards, but there was no sound hearable or visible for Envy24 control.

 3.

 I installed KMPlayer, set it up to use JACK, run JACK, launched
 KMPLayer, pushed play and play stand still.

 Any hints how to solve issue 2 and 3 are welcome.

 Cheers!

hi Ralf
I'd recommend grub2. On my stationary machine it finds all hard-drives, 
partitions, oses and every single Linux kernel. You'll just have to edit 
/etc/default/grub for your needs on the Linux from where you updated 
grub i.e. for getting rid of splash and recovery mode, setting defaults 
etc..
I also have an ice1712 card, a hoontech dsp24, and it worked ootb in 
10.04 64bit.
But just in the moment I have problems with sound/alsa in kernels 
2.6.32.23 and 24 generic and preempt.
With rt kernel 2.6.33.26-rt and jack2 (available i.e. in falktx ppas) 
and  alsa updated to 1.0.23 all audio is fine.
Even if both your cards are selectable in PA I think your problem has to 
do with multiple sound-card setup which seems to be not trivial in 
Ubuntu. Can you select them  in Qjackctl too?
good luck

[Bug 475706] Re: ondemand cpufreq governor broken on core 2 duo cpu

2010-06-22 Thread Gerhard Lang
hi uboot,
There is a script /etc/init.d/ondemand which automatically sets ondemand 
governor after waiting 60 seconds, so if  performance governor is  selected 
manually immediately after startup, this might be resetted and fall back to 
ondemand. By removing x-flag from etc/init.d/ondemand this can be manipulated, 
if one likes fan rattling and fried notebook cpus.
Are you sure your cooling unit is broken? On a dualcore amd64 hp notebook under 
heavy load I often see cpu temperatures around 80-90°C.

Re: linuxrt package not standard in studio ?

2010-05-11 Thread Gerhard Lang
Indeed, on my amd and intel standard systems there is no urgent need to 
use a rt-kernel. These actual generic and preempt kernels i.e. allow 
rt-activation in jack and there is not much difference in cpu-load 
against rt- or ck-kernels. Using these rt-kernels you get extended 
options to customize and optimize  IRQ-settings an priorities; this may 
be interesting for the bleeding edge of performance tuning. But much 
more important is maximizing cpufrequency (fixed, no ondemand) by cpu 
frequency scaling for minimizing latencies and xruns.

 I would suggest to you (and to all others readers in this ml) to

 You could take a look on -preempt kernel (available only on amd64) or

 These aren't fully preemptible kernels but should be enough for almost
 all our users.

Re: NVIDIA-drivers for the rt-kernel

2010-05-10 Thread Gerhard Lang
Moin Hartmut,

I was messing around with lucid's amd64 betas and some bleeding-edge 
ppas (not on productive partition ;) ) and suddenly Nvidia proprietary 
drivers stopped working.
So I had to remove these ppas, downgrade all xorg stuff to lucid 
standards, remove jockey and all nvidia stuff besides nv, and installed 
last driver from Nvidia's site manually as described in many howtos. Now 
ubuntu's kernels 2.6.31-10-rt and 2.6.31-12-realtime again cooperate 
with Nvidia 172.14.25 and my old fx5200. I love this legacy card due to 
it's noiseless passive cooling.
But it may depend on your card and driver. Did you give nvnews and their 
linux section a look?

 Hello,

 now, that Ubuntu 10.4 is official, I thought I could use it with the
 rt-kernel but my experience with it was not so exiting, but more like
 kinda upsetting to say the least:

 jockey fails to install the correct NVDIA-module for the rt-kernel, it
 does so several times for all variants of the NVIDIA-modules available.

 Installing Ubuntu-studio settings activates GDM without asking, if I
 would prefer to keep KDM.

 GDM chooses XFCE when starting though I never have asked for that too.
 Next time it likes to choose KDE4 - is there a random number generator
 in use?

 But these are mere oddities - the main trouble is NVIDIA.

 what can I do ?

This bug also affects  audio production on -rt kernel, lot of Xruns if jackd is

My workaround: inserted these lines into /etc/rc.local: 
(sleep 2  echo 20  
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand/up_threshold) 
(sleep 2  echo 20  
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/ondemand/up_threshold) 
Now everything works fine with governor ondemand, without the heating and fan 
noise I had by fixing at max fequency

echo 20  /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand/up_threshold

exit 0

cpu1 is linked to cpu0 on my amd system, if it were not I might have to 
add a second line for cpu1.

By default 'cat 
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand/up_threshold' showed 80 
when running 2.6.31-9-rt. In  2.6.31-15-generic  it's 95.
Setting up_threshold  as recommended in these articles to 50 or 35 did 
not do the job, had to lower it to 20.
Now qjackctl shows the same cpu-load and few xruns as when I set cpufreq 
from ondemand to highest value. Next I will do is testing this on my 
Notebook with intel dualcore.

 I always run into jackd low latency issues when I forget to set  cpu
 frequency scaling panel-applets to highest options. Is there a way to
 set this by default on start up without recompiling the rt-kernel?

Aunt Google knows Databases for laptops/notebooks wich work well with 
Linux. If they are known for running Linux without issues, the prognosis 
is good for getting ubuntustudio run on them smoothly too.  Hardware 
should be widespread on market at least for 1-2 years, but not much 
older. Not the bleeding edge if you want to get it running oootb, no 
exotics, no unnecessary gimmicks. Intel-Atom CPUs work, but much more 
satisfying for serious media-work are standard dual/quad cores 2GHz, 
FSB 667. Intel, AMD or Nvidia chipset, at least 4G DDR2or3 RAM, 
integrated HD-audio and Firewire. If mainly used for audio production 
integrated Intel graphic chips will do the job. For a little more 
advanced graphics, video work and gaming I'd recommend any widely used 
Nvidia or Ati chip with 1/2G dedicated memory.

Re: Need help

2009-08-03 Thread Gerhard Lang
your -rt kernel seems to collide with the installed non-rt-version and doesn't 
want to overwrite  lib/firmware/ositech/Xilinx7OD.bin 
But I think you will not need this firmware. In my customized kernel-builds I 
allways disable all functions in 'make xconfigure' I'm sure about they don't be 
necessary for my hardware.
I'd try to reinstall the -rt kernel after uninstall the non-rt-version and if 
this doesn't work I'd compile again reconfigured without (may be for you! check 
it with lspci and lsusb) unnecessary drivers/firmwares.
This rt-kernel works very good in my experimental karmic in an intel dominated 
notebook, the first one that gives me the option to disable automatic 
save-energy in the taskbar applet. I was not lucky with this rt-kernel in a 
jaunty environment on an asrock board with amd2x64,  usb sound onboard and 
nvidia fx5200 graphics.
good luck Gerhard

Re: Which ubustu-configuration makes you happy at present?

2009-07-22 Thread Gerhard Lang
Tx to all who made an exciting thread out of my whining, esp. Asmo for
his engagement :)
I'll give 64studio beta3 a try and since i need firewire essentially
i'll try to integrate up-to-date ffado and jack. This weekend i'll free
a partition ...
In the moment for real work I freezed karmic alpha 3 with 2.6.29.6-1-rt
kernel, customized jack 1.9.3 svn, ffado svn. This works stable and
reproducable for my needs: jack-late...@~8ms, hydrogen, rakarrack, wine,
wineasio, reaper with vst-instruments. Vst-host is less performant.
Ardour 2.8...(without vst-support) brings jack earlier to the limits
then wine/reaper!? Til now i had no success compiling ardour beta3. In
Ardour beta3 64bit-version will be no vst support anyway.
Sorry for not giving more input cause I have to do hard work for a
living all the week.
best regards

  They have added own rt-kernel to 64Studio. Use it, not one from Ubuntu's

 This is correct, use the 64Studio RT kernel.

  One thing that is still missing is ffado, no ffado at all in 64Studio.

 64 Studio 3 is still in beta, and is based on Hardy which also does not
 have FFADO support.  Having said that FFADO will be supported out of the
 box for the final released 3 version.  If you are impatient I believe
 there are some experimental packages for it.  Don't quote me on that,
 since I don't use or care for FFADO.

 jack is ok, latency 2,64, everything is working.

 I launch zynadd, it works, the keyboard is playing music, changing 
 effects is ok.

 But as soon as i use the menu instrument/instrument bank, choosing 
 another instrument disconnect zynadd from jack, and the only way to 
 re-connect it is to close it and restart again.

 is it normal, or a known large bug ?

 I'm gonna reboot under hardy RT to test it...

 I've done the same test under hardy 8.04 RT 64bits, with same material, 
 zynaddsubfx is working fine without disconnecting from jack when I 
 change the instrument.

 Do I need to declare a bug in launchpad for jaunty ?

Re: Ubuntu Studio 9.04 locks Up During Updates and Network File Operations

2009-06-23 Thread Gerhard Lang
On my stationary multiboot AMD64x2 pc in Jaunty I had heavy issues  both
with kernels -rt  and generic: after some minutes 100% cpu load and  use
of complete  ram (4g), extremly slow file and network operations,
lockups... barely possible to read my mail. As hungry ressources-eater I
figured out tracker assoziated prozesses and followed a recommendated -
forgot the link - workaround
run 'tracker-processes -r' in terminal,
then delete the folder '/home/MY_USERNAME/.config/tracker/'
and finally reinstall 'tracker' with synaptic.
Now everything is running fine with full performance.
Give it a try - only risk is that tracker will have to rebuild it's
databases.

good luck

 Hi

 I have been trialling both the 64bit and 32bit versions.
 I have been getting random lockups that seemed to be related to network

 Have tried apt-get and get the same problem.
 This is running as a dual boot installation on an Athlon dual core

 Ubuntu 9.04 32bit on my laptop is running fine on the same connection.

 Any ideas would be appreciated.

gigedit not working as plugin in Linuxsampler/qsampler, only as standalone

Is  anybody around here who has successfully installed q-, j-,
linuxsampler with gigedit as working plugin in a US-64bit-environment?
Qsampler and gigedit as standalone run smooth apart from some
reproducable and preventable crashes, but not gigedit as plugin.
My efforts to compile linuxsampler  friends from cvs failed. So for
this partial solution I was reliant on synaptic and  googled
(lib-)linuxsampler amd64 debs.

Re: recognize chords etc. in audio files

2009-03-24 Thread Gerhard Lang
Tx David, for the hint.
Indeed, this seems to be what I'm looking for.
Alas, in ubuntu 8.10 x96_64 clam, annotator, etc. neither are in the 
genuine repos nor installable from the developer's link as 3rd party repo.
So I tried to compile them from sources.
I'm not experienced with this, especially not with scons.
There was an error  whith the not available dependency libxerces27-dev, 
which must be replaced by an actual one.
Compiled with a lot of warnings, nevertheless installed successfully and 
even managed to build debs.
When I'm trying to run Annotator: error while loading shared libraries: 
libclam_core.so.13: cannot open shared object file: No such file or 
directory, even so it's present in /usr/local/lib.
I'm at the end of my rope, think I have to learn more about structures 
of system file localisation in different distributions.
Is there anybody around, who was lucky to get Clam/Annotator running? Is 
it a problem in 8.10? 64bit? Does it work in 8.04? Now I don't want to 
give up half the way.

 No. It's correct to say: It works for me..

 There are definite drivers issues that other users can come across. ie:
 Using Intrepid drivers on a Hardy kernel.

 So please when recommending things like this, qualify it and give a

Shutdowns freeze randomly since i started with 6.04 even after clean

If it happens, sometimes i can reach the console and sudo shutdown,
