Re: diagnostic tools to trace the reason xruns are happening?
What happens if you set the frames/period settings higher? I have similar setup and can't get it to run on any lower than 1024 frames(if I want to avoid xruns), but then I've set the sample rate to 48000. I've never noticed any problems with the latency, it's at 46 or something now but I can't hear any difference between this and something lower, can you? .) Best, Robert On Sun, Jun 5, 2011 at 10:24 AM, bart deruyter bart.deruy...@gmail.comwrote: Hi all, since recently I'm experiencing more xruns in ubuntustudio 11.04, more specifically using the lowlatency kernel. My audiocard is an external one, firewire, and I use the firewire driver. They just started happening out of the blue, without changing anything significantly. These xruns happen randomly, not caused by anything I do on the desktop. When I keep qjackctl running without any audio apps open, now and then, about each half hour, or 20 minutes, there is an xrun. My limits.conf file seems to be as described on the wiki's over the web, I have 4 GB or ram, a duocore processor.. I see no reason for problems. I've got a latency of 17.4 msec, with a setting of 256 Frames/Perios, Sample Rate of 44100, and 3 Periods/Buffer. So far this was the most stable setup, though I'm sure I should be able to go to 128 Frames/Period with my AudioFire12. But I can't, more xruns happen when using this setting. Setting the samplerate higher I get more xruns too. I'd love to record on 96000, or even 192000, which is possible with the audiocard, but the computer system prevents this because of these xruns. This does make it unreliable for recording, which I want to do more regularly and it makes me impossible to do recordings for others. I do not want a system where I have to ask people to start playing again for the recording because xruns. So, I was wondering, are there diagnostic tools, test scrips, tracing tools to get me to the bottom of this?

I have a question about this statement...Why do you think XFCE is outdated? I think XFCE can look *quite* nice. I've quickly found and linked a screen shot to demonstrate. [1] I wouldn't say that Xfce is outdated, I was just trying to say that the concept might be outdated and that a change like this in my opinion seems pretty ok, to me it seems like Gnome 3 is getting a lot of heat for nothing, most things still seems to be avaliable, but I'm not using things like applets either so maybe I'm missing something that's vital to some. I'm not sure I agree with your assertion about disrupting a serious producer/artist however. Just changing the UI to the point where a person's comfortable and favoured workflow will not work would cause quite a reaction. I don't want to imagine the reaction if we switched to something that was buggy where we lost functionality or it crashed often. Yes, but I don't think that's going to be the case. However this might depend on what kind of user you are and again this should be based on what users US is trying to attract. Personally I would say that I'm somewhat in between, I've been using linux on and of since 2005 and I know my way around it, but I'm also more of an artist really than a programmer and find that many times these two collide. Say, I'm setting up my connections for jack and get really technical about this stuff, I like to get it to run smoothly, connect stuff via. jackeq so that I can have individual volume controls between say a sampler and my web-browser, all this is nice but has nothing to do with me actually making any music. These examples aren't really problems but say perhaps that I need to get an rt-kernel installed because my computer is to slow , in theory this is simple and mostly it is but from experience I seem to encounter at least a dozen of problems related to something in my music-making chain of programs. My geeky side doesn't mind fixing these issues but at the same time they take away a lot of time that could be spent making music. But that's me, and then we have those who like to get very technical(maybe your average Linux user perhaps) that spend decades configuring and customizing, and to them it's not so much about making music/art as to the many ways it can be made. However, I think most artists is neither of the above. What these people wan't is to have something that looks nice and inspiring, something that's stable and something that's pretty advanced so that they can focus on their music/art instead of having to spend a day configuring first. And this, I think, is the direction Ubuntu and US HAS been taking for the past year at least, and I do like this a lot as I'm sure others of the above group do as well. This was also something that I felt had been taken further when testing Gnome 3 and I think reverting to Xfce would be, in this sense, taking a step back. I think US has become more than just a system for people with lot's of knowledge in linux, computers in general and who think that people that use A.) Macs are hipsters B.) Windows are stupid. But I guess this is all about who we're trying to reach and if we're not trying to attract these people but people who're already used to Linux and ALSO like to make music/other forms of art then maybe switching to Xfce is exactly what's best.

I assure you and everyone who has reservations towards XFCE: it is quite the same as Gnome2 and can be configured to mimic it near to 99%. It even offers some features, Gnome has dropped like switching Desktops with the mouse wheel on any place on the desktop and some more options for configuration. I use Gnome in Ubuntu and XFCE on Fedora on a dayly basis and I hardly notice the differnces (there are some inconveniences in Gnome, I can feel 1-2 times per day...) Plus: Gnome2, XFCE, KDE have more or less the same basic features that are the ones the user is confronted frequently. All these full-featured desktops can be configured to mimic each other in a way that no user without a lot of experience will notice the differences. All of them can have a hierarchical menu in the upper left corner, desktop icons, panels, a pager and a tray. And they suppport each others panel-applets or have similar applets as their siblings.

Well, either way you risk loosing supporters but in my opinion it's much worse to risk being outdated than getting a bit of disruption for some time(and I can't see how this can get so disruptive to a serious producer/artist that it get's such a big problem, but this is just my opinion). ...this debate really comes down to the basic question, 'what is ubuntustudio doing?'. whos is it for. are we attracting new users? studio engineers? video professionals?. this is something we are constantly trying to be more clear about. right now, a move to XFCE has the intention of being the least disruptive change, while maintaining a similar workflow, and also pooling our resources with the xubuntu team. adopting early hopefully means that by the next LTS (12.04), things will be nice and solid and working well. if we are to target current ubuntu users, then unity would be the way to go. if we are to target OSX users or audio professionals, then the current plan to use XFCE with the AWN dock actually might be the best idea. XFCE+AWN has a very OSX look and feel (much more so that the current ubuntutsudio) which i think is arguably a good improvement, and easily facilitates some nice 'workflow' ideas that scott lavender has proposed. what do you think would be a target audience? and how to best implement a DE for them? Well, either way the system seems to go towards a more OSX like feeling, however I can't help but like the inovative style of Gnome 3, atm. I'm running 10.10 with cairodock(which for some reason worked better than awn for me, also, to me, it's visually more appealing) and it feels a lot like OSX. This being said, I'm not a huge fan of OSX myself, obviously I found it rather locked and that's one of the reasons why I'm keeping my linux-based system over switching to a mac, also I don't think we should be locked into thinking that OSX is supposed to be the ultimate goal, in my opinion

Rme hdsp 9632 setup.
Hi, I recently bought a rme hdsp 9632 pci soundcard. Is there someone here that have experience using it with ubuntu studio and how to configure it? I read this; http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/7024 and it seems awfully complicated for ubuntu 9.10 with all it's apt-get packaging and stuff, what do I have to do in Ubuntu to make it work, I've got bad experiences messing with stuff that shouldn't be messed with like this and I don't want to edit textfiles and such if I don't have to, anyone got experience? .) //Paco -- Ubuntu-Studio-users mailing list Ubuntu-Studio-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users
Re: Rme hdsp 9632 setup.
Thx Mte, worked almost from the start, had no sound so I got a bit confused but then I noticed that audacious worked(I run everything through jack), took a look at the connect-settings and noticed that it didn't route sound from the rest(wine/spotify, renoise, aso.) so did a little patchbaysetup-ing and now everything is up and running. .) //many thx again Paco On Tue, Jan 5, 2010 at 8:53 PM, Viktor Mastoridis vik...@mastoridis.co.ukwrote: Hi, I recently bought a rme hdsp 9632 pci soundcard.

It's really easy and straight forward: In UBS it the software for it comes PRE-INSTALLED, but to be on the safe side, do the following. open Synaptic (system administration synaptic package manager) type hdsp you will see two apps: 'alsa firmware loaders' and 'alsa tools gui' install them (if they aren't installed) go to Sound and Video Audio production HDSPConf and HDSPMixer should be there. These are your main aps for the card. As to how to CONFIGURE and USE the card, you should follow the manual which is written by RME for Windows/Mac and it applies to Linux as well. http://www.rme-audio.de/en_downloads_manuals.php This last step is important, as RME doesn't work the usual way, even on Win/Mac.

Re: Ubuntu-Studio-users Digest, Vol 32, Issue 7
One thing on the subjekt of standardise things that I would like to see is a easy-acces compatible-hardware list, Maybe on the ubuntu studio homepage. As of now all of this is spread across lists and forums and damned hard to find to those not involved. I recently bought a new computer and tried to look around for these stuff and I think I managed to put together something quite nice, just a few major problems like that it freezes on network overload and that I still don't know weither my firewire card works or not. .) A list like this would get a more standardised platform for the US-user, I think. //Paco On Mon, Dec 7, 2009 at 5:57 PM, Lindsay Haisley fmo...@fmp.com wrote: On Sun, 2009-12-06 at 23:57 -0500, Karlheinz Noise wrote: Also I read that we should look at the MACintosh to see how it works, because everyone in the industry use it for years, and it is solid etc...

And why they use those tools really boils down to two things: ease of use, and stability... which are intimately related. Well This is a little bit disturbing indeed, because, normally there are very few inputs to the DEV team. very few ideas and test cases etc. But i see a lot of people complaining. And this nobody can deny. Peple come and just complain, instead of describing the error or the feature etc. If a user is complaining, it means that you're not doing your job as a programmer - simple as that. To everyone's credit, the usual response is not shut up, but give me more details. Some people, and even one of my educated and computer-literate IT colleagues, don't get the difference between a bug report (or beta test report) and a complaint. Getting these people past the point of just saying such-and-such doesn't work and leaving it at that is often a matter of education, and sometimes it ain't easy :-) - A/V is unfortunately not very open source at the moment, so should allow for easy installation of stuff that is not open. I heard someone once describe working with multimedia programming as a patent-infringement minefield. Every step has to be made very carefully! The bottom line is that, by its very nature, F/OSS developers have _no_ responsibility to the end-user community, whatever that may be. None! Zarro! Zilch!! Open Source is developed in the context of a gift economy. This statement really surprises me, as it would also surprise businesses like Sun or IBM (or even Microsoft, who are trying to get into the open source game). Yes, it may well be in the interest of the likes of IBM and Sun to get into Open Source. Enlightened self interest is an effective motivator, and these companies seem to get it with regard to the advantages of F/OSS software and how a thriving F/OSS community is important to the rest of their business. The bottom line is still that the GPL and other legal trappings of F/OSS software don't imply a responsibility to the end user, and in fact just about all F/OSS packages contain a legal clause, quoted below, stating this fact in clear legalese. This in no way negates what I said. If there is no contractual relationship between maker and consumer, express or implied by the exchange of consideration for purchase, then there is no obligation other than to do no harm. I recommend, if you haven't read it, Eric Raymond's The Cathedral and the Bazaar - the full book, not just the essay of the same name. Leaving that aside, if you're not writing software for the end-user community, why are you even writing software in the first place? Who's supposed to use it, our future Martian overlords or something? Actually, some F/OSS software seems to be written for the benefit of other developers. The community of people around a F/OSS project can get very in-grown. The result is that the people involved are more in touch with what's clever and goes over well with their colleagues than with the end-user experience. Their work may be more along the lines of proof-of-concept, or some such. There are a lot of programmers who aren't particularly socially skilled, and making the conceptual leap to look at and evaluate their work from the perspective of someone who knows absolutely nothing about the underlying software technology isn't always easy. This doesn't mean that they're not developing valid F/OSS software, nor that their work is inherently of no value. Very often such work is akin to what's called pure research in the natural sciences - science with no, or very little practical application. Commercial software development is driven by market dynamics. If you make it and it's not good, or not as good as the competition, or not properly marketed, it's a dead duck.

Nec Firewire + Edirol fa-66 + Jack
Hi there! I'm on my new computer and most things work as they should, after a bit of configuration. One thing I haven't got up and running is my edirol fa-66 firewirecard. So; what I have is a NEC chip for the firewire, jack and the fa-66. The computer realizes the NEC chip and bus-power is also working. I set jack and my system in general using this guide; https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FireWire and jack starts with the given settings. However, I test it with audacious and nothing happens, it just scrolls through my playlist and there's nothing, nada comming out of my fa-66. I can't help but feel that I've missed a step in all of this, what might be wrong? I don't even know where I should start troubleshooting. :/ ...also there's another more general problem; my router overloads at times and on my other computers the network just drops dead, and then commes back when the router's restarted, however; on this one the whole system crashes down, it lags for a bit, then freezes and nothing to do but to restart. If anybody has encountered this problem before help is much apreciated. //paco -- Ubuntu-Studio-users mailing list Ubuntu-Studio-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users

Assuming you've got a standard Ubuntu Studio install, then you'll need to open up Ubuntu Studio Controls under Stystem Administration. Check the box for allowing access to raw1394. It'll give you a warning, but just hit enter. The other thing you'll probably need to do is create an 'audio' group and then put yourself and 'root' in it. Every once in a while, I've still had problems getting the system to allow access to firewire after doing this, which is sometimes solved by creating a 'video' group and putting yourself and 'root' into that. If you're running a standard Ubuntu install, then you should check to make sure your /etc/security/limits.conf file includes the following lines: @audio - rtprio 99 @audio - nice -19 (or whatever you'd like to set nice to) @audio - memlock unlimited (or whatever you'd like to set the memory limit to) If all else fails, you can also just manually give yourself permission to access firewire by doing 'sudo chmod 777 /dev/raw1394' or something similar. You will need to do that each time you start a session, assuming you don't use one of the other fixes.

You can set the memlock using Ubuntu Studio Controls (under System Administration). It is usually recommended that this be set to around 75% of memory. You can also set it under the /etc/security/limits.conf file, as mentioned earlier. I've never actually used the ffado mixer, so I'm not sure what the problem there might be. -- Ubuntu-Studio-users mailing list Ubuntu-Studio-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users -- Ubuntu-Studio-users mailing list Ubuntu-Studio-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users

You will need to do that each time you start a session, assuming you don't use one of the other fixes.

Re: [usersUbuntuStudio] Jack lags...
Update, so after a nights configuring I think I know wherein the problem lies. :), I added Jack to the tray and now, when I start it, it gets completely red. I checked this up and supposedly it has to do with xruns(?). I also noticed that it helps changing the frames/period setting, but only to a degree(even at highest it's no good). I see now that this is not strange at all since it's the xruns that are causing it to slow down in the first place... Now all I have to figure out is why the xruns are being sent. Also I noticed something when starting alsamixer, I only have the masterbar. //paco On Fri, Mar 6, 2009 at 10:21 PM, Robert Klaar nim.b...@gmail.com wrote: Hi there again!
