[19:26] <hlblyhipy> Hope someon can help i have problems with ubuntustudio 14.04 display.Shortly after logging in my screen goes black or freezes.No mouse no keyboard and i have to shutdown and restart.Longest i can go is a few min
[20:00] <hlblyhipy> my graphics card is a radeon 3200 the documentation ive read says that the generic drivers should work,but apparently they dont.I've tried a few of the fixes i have found but as of yet to no avail.
[20:04] <zequence> hlblyhipy: Are you able to get a tty screen? Ctrl + Alt + F1
[20:05] <hlblyhipy> not when it freezes
[20:05] <hlblyhipy> wait whasts tty
[20:05] <hlblyhipy> sorry im a totasl newbie
[20:07] <hlblyhipy> i have tried ctrl + Alt + F1 and cant access that
[20:17] <Joseph___> i so was sent over to this irc because the others couldnt figure out my problem
[20:19] <zequence> hlblyhipy: have you tried another Ubuntu flavor?
[20:19] <Joseph___> mint and it didnt work there either
[20:20] <zequence> hlblyhipy: The graphics are more or less equal on all Ubuntu flavors. Yes, we have our own kernel, but it doesn't differ when it comes to graphics
[20:20] <zequence> Joseph___: Ah, sorry. I was talking to hlblyhipy still
[20:21] <zequence> Joseph___: Sent from where? And, what kind of problem are you having?
[20:21] <Joseph___> ubuntu-us-tn
[20:21] <Joseph___> my sound is not working
[20:22] <Joseph___> i have a blue yeti mic and audio technica plugged into that
[20:22] <zequence> Joseph___: Is this Ubuntu Studio?
[20:22] <Joseph___> no regular ubuntu
[20:22] <zequence> Joseph___: Are you using jack?
[20:23] <Joseph___> no i a not
[20:23] <Joseph___> i am  not
[20:24] <zequence> Joseph___: Have you seen this page? http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/12/how-to-set-up-blue-yeti-mic-in-ubuntu
[20:24] <Joseph___> already tried
[20:25] <Joseph___> the problem lies in that there is not yeti option
[20:28] <zequence> Joseph___: Was reading the log in the previous channel. Thanks again, Unit193
[20:29] <zequence> Thanks
[20:29] <zequence> er..
[20:29] <Unit193> Sure.
[20:29] <Joseph___> so any ideas
[20:29] <zequence> Joseph___: Well, I've never heard of alsa mixer crashing on account of a sound card
[20:30] <zequence> I assume you were using "alsamixer" in the terminal?
[20:30] <Joseph___> yes i was
[20:31] <zequence> This is really beyond what I can help with. I don't know pulseaudio very well (which is what is your desktop audio server). Pulseaudio uses alsa drivers, and it would seem your device has been supported for a number of yeard
[20:31] <zequence> years*
[20:32] <Joseph___> so is it best to scrap ubuntu and go to ubuntu studio?
[20:32] <zequence> Could be pulseaudio is doing something strange. I really don't know. I would suggest asking about it on #pulseaudio
[20:32] <zequence> Ubuntu Studio has the same sound system, only it has a few settings for low latency, realtime audio, using the jack audio server
[20:33] <zequence> So, I don't think it would help you
[20:33] <Joseph___> ever since i installed linux i have had trouble. ethernet..audio..graphics
[20:33] <zequence> This person was having some problems too http://askubuntu.com/questions/306652/cant-select-blue-yeti-pro-usb-microphone-in-sound-settings-menu
[20:35] <zequence> You could make life easier for yourself on Linux if you made sure your hardware was fully supported before installing Linux
[20:35] <zequence> Most manufactures have zero support for Linux, yet Linux supports probably more hardware than any other OS
[20:36] <Joseph___> im not sure what to do at this point
[20:36] <zequence> It doesn't always work perfectly, when the manufacturers themselves don't write their own drivers, or help develop the audio system
[20:37] <zequence> You could try disabling pulseaudio
[20:37] <Joseph___> how would i go about doing that
[20:39] <zequence> Joseph___: In the file /etc/pulse/client.conf, set "autospawn" to "no"
[20:40] <hlblyhipy> i tried linux mint and the same thing happened.I forgot to mention the comp that is czausing me the headaches is a hp pavillion
[20:40] <zequence> Then, either the command: pulseaudio -k
[20:40] <zequence> ..or, reboot
[20:40] <zequence> hlblyhipy: Ok. In that case, since we only worry about the multimedia side of things (aside from bugs in our kernel), we can't be of much help there
[20:41] <zequence> hlblyhipy: You could ask on #ubuntu
[20:41] <Joseph___> didnt work
[20:42] <hlblyhipy> ok thank you for taking the time.By the way I have ubuntustudio on a lenovo and it works great but the soundcard is better on the hp
[20:42] <hlblyhipy> ill try over at ubuntu
[20:42] <zequence> Joseph___: Give me the output of this command: cat /proc/asound/cards
[20:43] <zequence> Joseph___: i have to go, but if you see your device there, alsa is working
[20:44] <zequence> Joseph___: Or, at least, it would seemt to be working. And, in that case the problem is in pulseaudio
[20:44] <zequence> Joseph___: I would reboot just to make sure things are clean
[20:44] <zequence> Ok, good luck
[20:44] <Joseph___> thanks
[20:45] <Joseph___> http://paste.debian.net/112525/ incase someone else is interested
[22:33] <hlblyhipy> I have a question about lmms and something called vestige.Im new so please be patient
[22:36] <hlblyhipy> i was viewing a youtube tutorial.In the tutorial under under instrument plugins there was a choice for vestige,but in my version there is no such listing.I am trying to use something called dsk indian dreamz.I downloaded it and extracted the dll to lmms preset but when i try to open it i get an error
[22:37] <hlblyhipy> The plugin "" wasn't found or could not be loaded!
[22:37] <hlblyhipy> Reason: "Cannot load library /usr/bin/../lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/lmms/: (/usr/bin/../lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/lmms/: cannot read file data: Is a directory)"

[09:45] <cjwatson> ogra_: Looks like just the usual slight unreliability of ppc64el builders.
[09:49] <ogra_> yeah, i'll just kick a re-build ... seems no other ppc64el images failed tonight
[16:39] <Odd_Bloke> stgraber: ^ It's happening again. :)
[16:50] <stgraber> Odd_Bloke: thanks
[16:50] <stgraber> looking at the log now
[16:54] <stgraber> changed the handling of that failure a bit, added debugging and restarted
[16:54] <stgraber> so hopefully it won't cause that kind of mess again and I'll have more information to figure out what's confusing it
[21:43] <tsimonq2> or
[21:44] <tsimonq2> whoops
