  • diydsp: regarding firefox, i guess it is due to the theme of the window manager, you can chose others in Settings-manager=>appearance

  • <s------r> diydsp: for video i recomend trying kdenlive. as for bug-free video editors in linux, there are quite a few, blender is a prominent example :)
  • diydsp: in the top-bar of blender, you have button where it says "default" if you open the pulldown menu there, you will find one entry taht says: "Video editing". click it an love it :D

[09:49] <diydsp> hi! I just installed 16.04 Ubuntu Studio last night.  I was on 14.04 Ubuntu before that.
[09:49] == trebmuh [~capturixe@ANancy-653-1-59-1.w109-217.abo.wanadoo.fr] has quit [Ping timeout: 276 seconds]
[09:50] <s------r> diydsp: how's the first impression?
[09:51] == trebmuh [~capturixe@ANancy-653-1-59-1.w109-217.abo.wanadoo.fr] has joined #ubuntustudio
[09:52] <diydsp> I was delighted to see a video editor in the startup menu!  I never got one working bug-free under Linux before.  Didn't edit anything yet, but I'm itching to.
[09:52] <diydsp> Firefox doesn't looks as good as usual.  Would that be due to the window manager?  And I was happy to see gimp and blender pre-installed.
[09:54] <s------r> diydsp: regarding firefox, i guess it is due to the theme of the window manager, you can chose others in Settings-manager=>appearance
[09:55] <s------r> diydsp: for video i recomend trying kdenlive. as for bug-free video editors in linux, there are quite a few, blender is a prominent example :)
[09:56] <diydsp> Thanks!  I'll go into manager->appearance
[09:56] <diydsp> Ah!  Just started teaching myself blender for CAD.
[09:57] <diydsp> Also, is there a separate donation place for UbuntuStudio?  I wouldn't mind supporting this effort.
[09:57] <s------r> diydsp: in the top-bar of blender, you have button where it says "default" if you open the pulldown menu there, you will find one entry taht says: "Video editing". click it an love it :D
[09:58] <s------r> diydsp: no, we do it for the love of art :) but you could consider donating to the software you enjoy the most :) if blender is your new crush, i know they make very nice t-shirts :)
[09:58] <s------r> diydsp: what you could do for us is to be very vocal about the fact you are using ubuntu studio :)
[09:59] <s------r> diydsp: or get involved in development :) we need all kinds of skills, not only coding so to speak
[10:00] <s------r> diydsp: http://ubuntustudio.org/contribute/ and https://store.blender.org/
[10:01] <s------r> diydsp: we do have swag aswell, but it is not for profit :) http://ubuntustudio.org/merchandise/
[10:03] <diydsp> Ah, thanks!  I can start by helping spread the word with a shirt :)
[10:03] <diydsp> Is this a bug/feature queue I could take a look at and see how I could help?  I found the JoinTheTeam page and the mailing list...but rather than skim the mailing list archives right away, maybe I could see what kinds of things I could help with.
[10:05] <s------r> diydsp: i guess you could dig into this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntustudio
[10:06] <s------r> :)
[10:06] <s------r> diydsp: but, most of the bugs get reported directly to softwares project page...
[10:09] <diydsp> Ah yes, here we go.  Thank you.  That gives me an idea how I could help.  It seems there are lots of packaging requests.  I don't know how to do that but maybe if I read some of this "Done" ones I'll learn.
[10:11] <s------r> diydsp: if it gets packaged in debian, we end up having it, so it realy is there things should be packaged. that way, not only us benefit from it :)
[10:11] <diydsp> Oh!  Another thing I really liked was the mouse settings.  In 14.04 there was no GUI control to adjust mouse acceleration and I disliked the default mouse speed :(  I had a process I would go through manually, listing items partially with a script, but most of the time it was too hard.  So I was glad to see Studio has the mouse controls.  I guess that comes from Ubuntu 16.04?
[10:12] <s------r> i think those controls are from xubuntu :) we base everything desktop on xubuntu :)
[10:13] <s------r> diydsp: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStudio/DeveloperTutorials/SimpleBugFixExample here is a little tutorial, you can find more info about developement in that wiki using the sidebar :)
[10:13] <diydsp> And just out of curiousity, why xfce?  Is it higher performance?
[10:14] <s------r> diydsp: yes, its lightweight but still elegant enough :) however, it is possible to install a plethora of other DE :)
[10:16] <diydsp> ah yes, I notice this bug here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntustudio/+bug/739628  The report is from 2011, but I think I noticed the same thing last night.  I was kind of addicted to the Ubuntu 14.04 message that gave the ethernet status.
[10:16] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 739628 in Ubuntu Studio "STUDIO could do with an Ethernet OK ICON and the System should check "Ethernet OK", more often." [Undecided,New]
[10:17] <diydsp> But I'm not sure I should go as far as switching to Gnome to get ethernet status
[10:17] <s------r> hmm... i never had that bug tbh..
[10:17] <s------r> if i unplug ethernet cable, it updates the icon in systray instantly...
[10:18] <s------r> but the nm has been acting a bit weird lately, it tends to display the ethernet icon when wifi is on...
[10:19] <diydsp> OK, I'll take a closer look at it tonight when I'm on the machine again!  I wish I didn't have to be at work all day, HA!  ;)
[10:19] <s------r> diydsp: this one: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1589401
[10:19] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 1589401 in NetworkManager "cannot view wifi networks after re-enabling wifi" [Medium,Confirmed]
