hey there the "linux audio configuration" is part of ladish, and it's error dialog is kinda a mis-information. the Studio refers to a LADISH studio, not a JACK one. when used inside gladish, this tool will work fine. (I wonder if the desktop should be removed in this case...) UbuntuStudio is missing a lot of things, not sure if this is going to be a good release... :( this includes the default theme and login screen. we'll try to fix these things in time, but I'm not sure if it will all work out. Feel free to drop into IRC, #ubuntustudio-devel (on freenode) and ask where you can help out. thanks for the testing! <div class="gmail_quote">2011/10/4 Len Ovens <<a href="mailto:len@ovenwerks.net">len@ovenwerks.net</a>> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;"> Downloaded and installed, no problems except video turns off while booting, but that is not new just my video card does not have the right driver loaded. Comes back when X starts. Comments: - no office? An option to at least download the standard office suite as part of the "Office" menu options would be nice. - None of the browsers seem to understand sftp. The old file manager did. It is great for doing backup kinds of things. Nautilus just did that real easy, but as soon as it was started it never went away... not good for sound. I thought I had Thunar doing it too. But not here. - Firefox comes with bookmarks to ubuntu... why not ubuntu studio? anyway, small stuff. More important, as a media tool though, is that if I select settings-> linux audio configuration.. I get: "JACK can only be configured with a loaded and stopped studio. Please create a new studio or load and stop an existing one." Ok look for create studio button... can't find that... hmm, says "Jack" try starting Jack with QjackCTL. Great.. says Studio created. Stop Jack... Hmm Studio removed. I have no idea what a studio is (in this case), nor how to create one or what program to use. The Linux Audio Configuration should first check to see if such a thing exists before running and if it is not there, either pop up a box explaining how to create a studio for Jack... or better yet start the application that does so. Nobody wants questions on "how do I create a studio?" to answer over and over. The bright green login screen is a bit much... windows blue would be less of an eyesore. The session is ok though. Loading the software. Seems ok. I had a kernel panic the first try, but that was after I just installed another drive to try this out on.. could have been a hardware warming up thing. The second time it went straight through no problem... select use whole disk and install everything. Oh yeah, since I mentioned it before... ardour 3 loads and works fine (alpha 10) I will try to fix the things listed... and pass them on should I actually figure it out ;-) -- Len Ovens <a href="http://www.OvenWerks.net" target="_blank">www.OvenWerks.net</a> -- Ubuntu-Studio-devel mailing list <a href="mailto:Ubuntu-Studio-devel@lists.ubuntu.com">Ubuntu-Studio-devel@lists.ubuntu.com</a> Modify settings or unsubscribe at: <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-devel" target="_blank">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-devel</a> </blockquote></div>
