all open source drivers, the GT one is driving the monitors

I have 2 video cards installed, both selected on the basis of their passive
cooling. They are both Radeon based
GK208 [GeForce GT 710B]
Caicos PRO [Radeon HD 7450]
1 of them run two non-4k monitors, the other runs a 4k "TV" screen.
Setting up 3 monitors on Linux is tricky, but the basic set up with just
one of either of them was completely painless and I've been happy with
results both in terms of noise (none!) and performance.

Dear all,
Today I'd like to perform maintenance on the linuxaudio.org web server
around 20:00 CEST. Maintenance comprises moving from GlusterFS storage
to disk storage in order to improve performance of the web server.
GlusterFS seemed promising but through time we came to realize it's not
optimal for our situation.
Maintenance will take approx. 3 hours. During that period the sites
hosted on the web server won't be reachable as I'd like to shut down all
services before doing a final rsync. Thanks for your understanding.
Best regards,
Jeremy
Apologies for this being only tangentially on-topic, but has anyone got a
recommendation for a decent video card for driving a 4K monitor under
Linux?
The audio connection here is that I'm looking for something that is passively
cooled (or at very quiet if not), performs well, and is low-latency friendly
(so probably not proprietary drivers)? With those requirements I don't
really fancy my chances in the "google, buy and hope" approach.
I've been using cheap nvidias with nouveau for a while but performance of
certain operations (scrolling, dragging/resizing windows) is painfully slow,
particularly since I made the jump to a 4K monitor.
Has anyone got some success stories?

Hi!
I tried to configure an Ardour session to make a simple ambisonics environment with just 4 speakers - FL, FR, RL, RR.
Following instructions from https://community.ardour.org/ambisonics, I added one mono track, bypassed the builtin panners and took (I think it was) "AMB 1.1 mono panner" (couldn't find "1h1v"), added 2 additional channels in "Master" to get 4 of them and let my mono channel take the "Master" as an output.
Then I started ambdec and tried to make some sane connections, but the inputs are not called "w", "x" and "y", but only "0", "1", "2", and so onÂ…
"man ambdec" didn't help.
/usr/share/doc/ambdec didn't help.
An old manual (for ambdec 0.4.2 - I use 0.7.1, or so) from Fons' kokkinizita-page at linuxaudio.org didn't help.
So, I hope anyone at the linux audio user mailing list can jump inÂ…
Greets!

Hello all,
Two new sets of AMB plugins are available at
<http://kokkinizita.linuxaudio.org/linuxaudio/downloads/index.html>
AMB1-plugins:
First order panners, Z-axis rotation, and dominance.
HOA3-plugins:
Third order panners, Z-axis rotation, converters for SN3D to/from
N3D and FuMa.
See the README for details.
All of them now use the 'Ambix' format and gains (except of course
the convertors at the non-SN3D side).
Ambix format uses ACN channel order, as does Ambdec. So e.g. Ardour
master outputs will be in the same order as Ambdec inputs, but channel
numbers are offset by 1, for example:
Ardour master Ambdec input
----------------------------
1 in.0 (W)
2 in.1 (Y)
3 in.2 (Z)
4 in.3 (X)
If you use these with Ambdec, don't forget to check the 'Input scaling'
in the configuration dialog. This should be set to 'SN3D'. If necessary,
change, apply and optionally save the preset.
