[ubuntu-studio-users] Help Us Put Some Polish On Ubuntu Studio

2016-05-04 Thread C. F. Howlett
We are proud to have Ubuntu Studio 16.04 out in the wild. And the 
next release can and should be better. It WILL be better if you 
help!

Are there specific packages that should be included or removed?  Are 
there features you would like to see?  We cannot promise to do 
everything you ask, but we will give all ideas consideration!

Write your suggestions and / or contributions in the comments or
send them to

improve [AT] ubuntustudio [DOT] org

Greetings Mark:

I have not direct downloaded an image in years.  Torrent provides much
faster and more reliable service.  IMHO.

FTP Download Message-ID:

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Hi All, I'm looking for a
FAST FTP server to download the latest image from. Every ftp mirror of
"studio" I've found is either just plain slow (most appear to be
throttled down to 265k. Arrgh...), or they burst, then die. Can anyone
shoot me the url for a server they've verified will transfer at 2meg+?
Thanks! Mark Petersen Technical Director Theater At Mountainview

   This makes sense, since if user needs to troubleshoot an Xfce4 issue,
   the user likely would send a request to xubuntu-us...@lists.ubuntu.com.
   The Xubuntu mailing list unlikely can provide good help for a Xubuntu
   version that is obsolet.
  
  
 
  This is not the kind of support we are talking about here. Only bug
  fixing, which is not happening much even from the Xubuntu team three
  years in a LTS release - if at all.
 
  And to holstein, please make an argument for why you object. Otherwise
  we have no idea what the reasons to your objections are.
 
 
 sure.. my objections are the same as the ones in this thread from other
 community members. i think it looks odd for us to offer a longer support
 for xfce than xubuntu, the flagship xfce distro which is our immediate
 upstream. i think they have a larger, more active support community that we
 do, and have decided to do 3 years, and i agree with the reasoning those
 members have presented for the 3 year support decision. i disagree with the
 arguments for the 5 year support. im a long term support release user
 exclusively on my production machine, and im not requesting a longer
 support term. is anyone? if we say 5 years, we need to be able to support
 that, and i am not of the expertise to personally help facilitate bug
 fixing. think of ubuntustudio 10.04 and what versions of jack and ardour
 are running there, and what user experience one would have in audio
 production vs running 14.04. why would we not just suggest users upgrade?
 for features and support sake..

 i'll stand behind whatever decision the community makes.. what is the plan
 for this decision? a proper meeting and a vote? a vote in a web service?
 are we going to hash it out here on the list?


 This is how I reason:
 
  * One person could handle bug fixing, in the remote possibility a
  serious bug would appear three years in a LTS release, which I am
  willing to do.
  * Five years is better than three, though not a big plus, and probably
  not something the majority of our users need.
  * XFCE releases are supported for a very short time by upstream (I was
  recently told), so this makes things a bit more difficult, but not
  impossible at all to fix a bug after three years support.
 
  In the light of a few more details I've learned, and the fact that five
  years support is not a big need for Ubuntu Studio, I'm changing my mind
  and am willing to go with the three years support period.
 
  So, unless someone has very compelling reasons not do so, I'll propose
  three years support for the 14.04 LTS release.
 
  Pragmatically speaking, we would have no problem doing five years
  support, but again, it's not a big win.

At the risk of being burned at the stake for heresy, may I suggest you peek

Default Wallpapers

2012-02-27 Thread C. F. Howlett
Greetings UbuntuStudio:

Some very nice wallpapers were proposed for 11.10 but they were not
selected for inclusion.  I've not been able to find a source file, so it
seems they're not available anywhere for download except as shown here:
https://wiki.edubuntu.org/UbuntuStudio/Artwork/OfficialOneiric

Can we please get these released, even if they're NOT to be included in
precise?  Thanks in advance.

C. F. Howlett

Audio Package Selection

I would like to produce an audio podcast, but the workflow and
applications appear to be scattered.  As I understand it...

Record audio / Sound Recorder
Improve raw audio / Audacity
Add intros, effects, sound bumpers / Audacity(?)
Format for online storage / Audacity(?)
Post file online / ???

Thank you for addressing this..

Ubuntu Studio Login Logo Tweaked

2010-06-16 Thread C. F. Howlett
Greetings Creatives:

IMHO, Ubuntu Studio comes with some of the most appealing eyecandy by
default - but why settle for standard?

I looked far and wide to find JUST the right wallpaper.  All was right
with the world - until I found THIS: 

http://www.zimbio.com/Ubuntu+Linux/articles/8DqOmX9SIkQ/change+ubuntu+lucid+lynx+logo+login+screen

My login logo was the official Circle of Friends logo.  Couldn't I just
LIVE with that? 

Don't be silly.

At first I considered getting HAL 9000's eye - ask your grandparents.
Then I saw this:

http://fabianff.deviantart.com/art/Ubuntu-Studio-Balls-82556151.

First I tried to make the change via Ubuntu Tweak.  I thought it had
worked, but it failed and didn't even give me an error message.

The tutorial doesn't mention it, but you must be root to change the
logo. Also, the tutorial appears to be in error on the image format - I
believe it has to be .svg not .png.  At any rate, I used the terminal to
rename the Circle of Friends logo and left it in place.  I renamed the
Ubuntu Studio Globe and now I have a shiny new Ubuntu Studio symbol as my login 
logo.  Sweet!
