1) Add the Medibuntu repositories to get all your codecs
Okay, will do.
2) Add the ubuntu-studio repos, but don't just
install the entire set;
pick and choose the bits and pieces that you want - or you'll be
wasting more time and cursing and swearing and fixing things later.
Ditto.
2b) DON'T USE these from ubuntu-studio repos:
ardour, rosegarden,
bristol, hydrogen or jamin as the versions supplied are outdated.
Build them yourself (except ardour and jamin) from cvs/svn.
Easy way: use 'apt-get build-dep <package-name>' to install build
dependencies, then compile your source from there.
Doing it now. I already built Csound 5.09.2, I'm compiling Ardour 3 now.
2b) Get jack SVN. Maybe the easiest way is to leave
the ubuntu
version of jack intact and build and install over the top of it.
That way your dependencies won't break. Make sure you install to
'/usr' NOT '/usr/local' or things can go haywire with two versions of
jack laying around.
Right-o. I know this dance. :)
4) Get a copy of rncbc's rt_irq script. It's a
good basis to get
all your audio timing right. (Oh, once it's installed, run jack
at priority 70)
Will do.
Another question: I changed the ownership for /dev/nvidia0 and
/dev/nvidiactl to include myself, but on reboot the ownerships had
reverted. How do I make the change permanent ?
Best,
