Hello all,
I have made a mini 250 pixel wide version of the linuxaudio.org logo for
a link on the 64 Studio homepage; you can get it here:
http://64studio.com/pics/linuxaudio-250.png
This is somewhere between the 'normal' and 'compact' sizes already
available.
I've added a link using html similar to:
<a href="http://linuxaudio.org"><img src="linuxaudio-250.png"
alt="linuxaudio.org"></a>
<br>
<br>
'Project X' is a member of the
<a href="http://linuxaudio.org">linuxaudio.org</a> consortium.
<br>
if that's useful for anyone to copy and paste - it only takes a minute :-)
Cheers!
Daniel
Hi all,
Just wanted to let everyone know that the server and accounts are going to
be moved in the next 48-72 hours. During this time we'll do a freeze on
account access in order to prevent any alterations to the file system in
order to ensure accurate syncing of the old and new server data. I sincerely
apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
The porting of the files will begin tomorrow afternoon (2pm-ish EST) and
will continue "until it's done." ;-) (likely no more than 48 hours)
The new server will give us better back-up, more bandwidth, and more space.
As a result of the move to a dedicated server, we will have to obliterate
account passwords, so I will issue new temporary ones to all who are
maintaining current sites. We will also streamline user names according to
the sub-sites (i.e. lad maintainer will have a login "lad" etc.). This will
enable us to easily reassign duties when such an action becomes necessary.
I will do my best to seamlessly port the existing MySQL database, but just
to be on the safe side I will also generate backups as well as keep the old
server unscathed until we know that everything is in working order on the
new server.
Again, I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.
If you do have any urgent updates to do, please do them before 2pm EST
tomorrow (Wednesday, August 30, 2006).
Please note that the transition will be seamless and we do not expect any
downtime as a result of this (minus the database stuff where we'll have to
prevent any further changes in order to ensure accurate data transfer).
Many thanks for your patience and understanding!

Greetings all,
I will be on vacation and unavailable until July 11. In the meantime, I will
do my best to keep up with e-mail, although my Internet access will be
rather spotty (I know that I have at least a few e-mail to answer which,
time permitting, I'll try to answer asap). Nonetheless, should you happen to
have any questions and/or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Best wishes,

FWIW, wanted to share some impressive performance I managed to pull off
earlier today from my new toy:
RECIPE:
1 Macbook Pro
1 Ubuntu Dapper (vanilla 2.6.15-26 kernel)
1 adjustment to rtlimits (total of 2 lines)
1 fglrx driver
1 Xgl with all eye-candy you can get
1 JACK + Qjackctl
1 32 x 3 buffer size
Mix it up. Run in realtime.
RESULT: xrun-free 2ms latency on a crummy built-in soundcard (2 in, 6 out)
plus all the eye-candy goodness you can possibly dream of at approx. 14%
CPU. ;-)

Hi,
We recently made a downloadable demo ISO version of Studio to Go! v1.50
available:
http://www.studio-to-go.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=71&It…
Would anyone be in the position to offer us a mirror (or point us to a
likely source)? It's obviously quite big - around 600MB - so I'm not
exactly expecting an avalanche of offers!
Some news - Studio to Go! v2.0 is now in development and we'll be
announcing features and a beta programme shortly.
Rgds,
Richard
