Hi all.
With another team, lprod.org team have created a live DVD of Ubuntu
Studio Karmic 32 bits (we can create also a 64 bits example).
I've tested it this morning on a laptop with only windows XP pro on the
hard disk. It's working perfectly.
It could be nice to have this iso available for everyone, but we have a
trouble.
The guy who has created the live DVD has done a great job, but has
introduced severals packages which are very important for video editing
but cause some trouble of licence, as ffmpeg, mencoder, mplayer. So this
DVD is very powerfull because you can edit video in live which is very
impressive, but illegal in severals countries. I'm gonna complete my
tests, ardour is also compiled with VST support, and many non free
improvement are live available.
So where can i found the complete official list of ALL the packages free
included in the Ubuntu Studio karmic official DVD install disk to
compare to our beta disk, to create a new one as the official one but
live, without all forbidden packages to allow everyone to download it ?
Is it allowed to create it ?
If not, we can create a lprod.org one, based only on free software
included in Ubuntu Studio, in live and downloadable
Hi Laurent,
This is wonderful news, this is a feature request that we get on a regular
basis from our users but the dev team is not experienced in the creation of
LiveDVDs. It'd be great if this effort could be moved into the Ubuntu
Studio development process so that future releases have live capabilities.
I'm CCing the dev list on this and I hope that the discussion continues
there. Please consider joining that list to facilitate the discussion
there.
To answer your question regarding packages, the full list of packages
(including dependencies) can be seen at

I would say I'm not for this on a LTS release.
The reasoning for us not creating a live disk is 2-fold.
* Live disks do not preform well for audio. (our core audience)
* 2 more disks to test where our testing is already very poor.
* And a 3rd one, resources. ie: diskspace on Canonical servers.
I will also say I'm generally against this. But if it happens after the
LTS and is what people really want, I won't be a roadblock.
