Nova-deViatorthere;s a support channel here for kxstudio. nice. hi everyone. i'm trying to help a fella on fb with a linux install where he installed qjackctl and cadence from kxstudio repos and now has jackd without the alsa backend. is there a separate package that needs to be installed so that jackd will be able to use alsa?19:29

*** lukaprincic[m] has joined #kxstudio19:35
Nova-deViatorok, joined via matrix -> lukaprincic[m]19:36
genesiswhy use qjackctl if you have already cadence ?19:37
genesisand which jack implementation do u use ?19:37
genesiscadence provide a better jack configuration and patchbay (catia)19:38
genesisin cadence -> system -> configure -> driver -> alsa.19:39
lukaprincic[m]this is the discussion: https://www.facebook.com/groups/189734702059/permalink/10155328541607060/19:41
LAbotTitle: Linux Audio Public Group | Facebook (at www.facebook.com)19:41
lukaprincic[m]he is using jackd2 1.9.1219:42
genesisi boycott facebook19:42
genesisplease subscribe to a libre software network as diaspora or mastodon19:42
genesis:')19:42
lukaprincic[m]yeah ok, no problem. but doesn't cadence also use jackd in the background19:43
lukaprincic[m]genesis: i use diaspora and mastodon extensively19:43
lukaprincic[m]jackd -d reports no alsa backend. is this normal?19:43
genesisi would say no19:43
lukaprincic[m]my thoughts exactly. i think using cadence will not help19:44
genesiswhich backend it propose ?19:44
genesiscadence could use the jackdbus version19:44
genesiswhich u could have give a chance :)19:45
genesisand provides with the jack2 :)19:45
genesissorry i don't use the kxstudio distro, only cadence suite and carla19:46
*** testingsubject[m has joined #kxstudio19:46
*** troken[m] has joined #kxstudio19:47
troken[m]ok...19:48
lukaprincic[m]hi troken19:48
troken[m]Hi!19:48
lukaprincic[m]genesis suggested that cadence might use a different version of jackd - namely jackdbus19:48
troken[m]Alright19:49
lukaprincic[m]genesis is using cadence so he might be able to help?19:50
*** wolftune has quit IRC19:50
genesisyes but i wonder how to choose the daemon or dbus version in cadence config19:51
troken[m]Adding KXstudio-repositories again, since I cant find Cadence in my Synaptic19:52
genesisfor me it's using jackdbus .19:52
lukaprincic[m]i'm reading on KXstudio page: "KXStudio includes an ALSA/JACK bridge program called “snd-aloop daemon” which enables the user to run ALSA-only apps alongside JACK and other JACK-native software. This bridge is turned on by default when JACK is started - see the Cadence instructions for more information."19:52
lukaprincic[m]troken: you can do "sudo apt install cadence" in terminal19:52
genesisbut that is to make alsa APPS working with your jack daemon19:52
lukaprincic[m]you already have kxstudio repos there19:52
lukaprincic[m]since you installed qjackctl (and jackd) from them.19:53
*** sirriffsalothp has quit IRC19:53
genesisnot to make alsa driver working with jack ... you should have this backeend.19:53
lukaprincic[m]genesis: yes, i see, you are right. but that is also perhaps why there is no alsa backend in jackd? i'm guessing here.19:54
genesisno it's very anormal for me19:54
genesisall people would use the alsa backend one day, i use a source distro(gentoo) so special needs could unable it but i don't see the point in a debian distrib19:55
troken[m]Cant find Cadence... It says it is not available.19:55
lukaprincic[m]it seems not normal to me too19:56
genesisweird kernel or something, i can't help deeper 'cause it's distribution stuff19:56
lukaprincic[m]alsa is there. working. aplay -l can list devices.19:58
lukaprincic[m]cadence has a complicated settings setup i see now19:58
troken[m]ok guys. The other day I followed a install instruction on Youtube. That tampered with my kernel I think. Can that be the reason behind this=19:58
troken[m]?19:58
lukaprincic[m]troken is a first time user if i understand correctly.19:59
lukaprincic[m]troken: does any sound work? can you hear youtube videos? if you can than basic sound works and kernel is ok (for now)19:59
troken[m]Yes, sure, I can hear sound very good.20:00
troken[m]This is the video I talked about: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E6LuvdDEqCA20:00
lukaprincic[m]to me these tasks all look good. what do you get when you type $ uname -a in your terminal20:02
troken[m]Linux martin-N550JV 4.4.0-109-lowlatency #132-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT Tue Jan 9 20:43:47 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux20:03
lukaprincic[m]if sound works than you're good. if you have a lowlatency kernel all the better.20:03
troken[m]😀 Im so confused20:03
lukaprincic[m]don't worry. you'll learn. don't give up, give it time.20:06
troken[m]Ill make a video recording of what happens. Its really weird.20:06
lukaprincic[m]somebody in this channel should help you out since it is the jackd from KXstudio that for some reason doesn't have alsa backend20:07
lukaprincic[m]using this riot app allows you to keep your username present in the channel and see history even if you shutdown or restart the computer20:08
lukaprincic[m]did you try starting the jack from cadence?20:09
* troken[m] posted a file: Jack-problem.mp4 (5679KB) <https://matrix.org/_matrix/media/v1/download/matrix.org/mKuBEWMQrKVJhnEiWkKhCPym>20:09
troken[m]No, I cant install Cadence. Its not there to install, cant find it.20:09
lukaprincic[m]have you tried typing in the terminal:20:10
lukaprincic[m]$ sudo apt install cadence20:10
*** GrusGrus has quit IRC20:11
troken[m]Yes20:11
lukaprincic[m]troken: and it couldn't find it?20:11
lukaprincic[m]genesis: can cadence connect to already running jackd? (not jackdbus)20:13
troken[m]No, couldn find it. :-/20:13

lukaprincic[m]a) try to find so called "software properties" - i think even in synaptic you can do it20:17
troken[m]Ok, I can try that.20:17
lukaprincic[m]command line is "software-properties-gtk"20:18
lukaprincic[m]it will give you a gui where you can control all your repos20:18
troken[m]oh, yes i recognize that. Ill remove everything with kxstudio in it.20:18
lukaprincic[m]under "Other software" you can untick or remove all kxstudio repos20:19
lukaprincic[m]if it doesn't allow you, you need to start it as root (from the command line) like so20:20
lukaprincic[m]$ sudo software-properties-gtk20:20
lukaprincic[m]but maybe it has already asked for password20:20
lukaprincic[m]when you click close it will ask you to reload package information. do that.20:21
troken[m]Ive removed all repos with kxstudio now20:22
lukaprincic[m]then the more risky part:20:23
lukaprincic[m]$ sudo apt remove jackd220:23
lukaprincic[m]it will tell you some packages it will remove20:23
lukaprincic[m]as some software depends on it20:23
troken[m]done20:24
lukaprincic[m]now first check what jackd2 will it install if you try to install it again:20:25
lukaprincic[m]$ apt policy jackd20:25
lukaprincic[m]and if it's 1.9.10 version, install it like so:20:26
lukaprincic[m]$ sudo apt install jackd220:26

lukaprincic[m]sorry20:26
lukaprincic[m]my mistake20:26
troken[m]it ok :)20:26
lukaprincic[m]$ apt policy jackd220:26

troken[m]BRB20:28
genesislukaprincic[m] : catia will find it yes20:30
troken[m]it wants to install jackd, jackd1 and jackd1-firewire. OK?20:30
lukaprincic[m]yes, now install it with20:30
lukaprincic[m]$ sudo apt install jackd220:30
troken[m]done20:31
lukaprincic[m]aha.. no, i think it shouldn;t install jackd120:31
lukaprincic[m]hmmm20:31
troken[m]ok, il unsinstall20:31
lukaprincic[m]well, try it anyway: jackd -d20:31

lukaprincic[m]:(20:32
lukaprincic[m]well, i'm really not sure what is happening here.20:33
lukaprincic[m]and what version of jackd is now installed? can you do20:35
lukaprincic[m]$ dpkg -l | grep jackd and look at the version number next to jackd220:35
lukaprincic[m]is it 1.9.10?20:35
lukaprincic[m](or at least starting with it)?20:35
troken[m]yes20:36
lukaprincic[m]ok, than this is not jackd fault at all actually20:36
troken[m]oh? Tobiasz Unfa Karon suggests that Pulseaudio might be the problem.20:37
lukaprincic[m]pulse audio problem can be solved by installing jack module for pulse audio, but it would be wierd that jackd would not report an alsa backend20:37
lukaprincic[m]but you can try20:37
lukaprincic[m]$ sudo apt install  pulseaudio-module-jack20:38
troken[m]installed now20:38
lukaprincic[m]pactl load-module module-jack-source channels=220:38
lukaprincic[m]pactl load-module module-jack-sink channels=220:39
troken[m]"Failed to start module"20:39
lukaprincic[m]ah20:39
lukaprincic[m]interesting20:39
troken[m]the same for the secont one20:39
lukaprincic[m]hmmmmmm20:39
lukaprincic[m]try restarting pulseaudio20:41
lukaprincic[m]$ pulseaudio -k20:41
troken[m]ok20:41
lukaprincic[m]try again loading the module?20:41
lukaprincic[m]i'm not sure if the jack needs to be running when loading the module actually20:42
troken[m]same thing as before20:42
lukaprincic[m]i'm running out of ideas here. i think reinstalling completely should be the last resort but sometimes it can trully help20:43
lukaprincic[m]and maybe you install an audio-focused distro. i'm using ubuntu-studio and can help you with that20:43
lukaprincic[m]http://ubuntustudio.org/20:43
LAbotTitle: Ubuntu Studio (at ubuntustudio.org)20:43
troken[m]Oh, you mean a total fresh os-install?20:43
lukaprincic[m]mhm. :-/20:44
troken[m]I googled a bit. This: ? http://kodi.wiki/view/PulseAudio/HOW-TO:_Disable_PulseAudio_and_use_ALSA_(without_removing_PulseAudio)_for_Ubuntu20:45
lukaprincic[m]yes, looks like an easy and simple temporary recipe20:46
lukaprincic[m]to disable it from running20:46
lukaprincic[m]try that, kill pulseaudio with20:47
lukaprincic[m]$ pulseaudio -k20:47
troken[m]Ill try later, have to leave computer for a couple o minutes20:47
troken[m]brb20:47
lukaprincic[m]and then try jackd -d to see if alsa backend comes up.20:47
lukaprincic[m]yes, i need to leave and go home too.20:48
lukaprincic[m]bye!20:48
