How can I upgrade from 7.04 to 7.10 from the DVD ?
Grateful for help. Very much a newbie. Couldn’t upgrade online - always a medibuntu repo problem.

Has anyone tried installing Ubuntu Studio on 7.10? I tried with the Release Candidate DVD, and the window borders looked like Gilouche, but black, instead of the nice Studio borders…

[…] so just do “sudo apt-get install ardour jackd” and you should be set. You might want to check out Ubuntu Studio as well. All I did was add the repositories to my installation of Ubuntu and download the low […]

That’s right — the cut and paste won’t work, but retyping it will, because the quotes aren’t correct in the example above. They’ll be OK when you type them, though.

Hi,
Can this upgrade work on the Feisty 64 AMD version?
Can I get the theme only? I mean is there a way to have a “Studio Skin” on my Fiesty?
Thanks!

I’m running Feisty. If I search for Ubuntu Studio in Synaptic, I find ubuntustudio audio, audio-plugins, graphics, launcher, and video. Can I just select the packages in Synaptic rather than go through the apt-get install routine?

what you could do otherwise if you cant get the first command to work properly is to open up a terminal, type

sudo synaptic

click settings ->
repositories->
third party software tab->
add->
paste the adress deb http://archive.ubuntustudio.org/ubuntustudio feisty main
->click close, and it will ask you to reload.
you reload and get an error, no worries.

to get auth key (for the error you just got)
in a terminal type (in one line)
wget -q http://archive.ubuntustudio.org/ubuntustudio.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - && sudo apt-get update

after that its just a matter of downloading the packages and installing them, as posted above:

sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio-audio ubuntustudio-audio-plugins ubuntustudio-desktop ubuntustudio-graphics ubuntustudio-video

sit back and relax, then reboot when asked to reboot.

on amd64 machines there seems to be a bug and you cannot install ubuntustudio. We are not offered desktop or theme and more importantly we cannot install ubuntustudio.-audio because it has a conflict with supercollider which I assume from some google searches cannot install in 64bit.

Any new news on this?

Apparently with proprietary drivers when up upgrade your kernel the proprietary modules are not included in the upgrade. The laptop was easy to fix but my desktop beige box had dual monitors using TwinView and required a bit more work to get the dual monitors working correctly. Just restoring an old copy of /etc/X11/xorg.conf and running nvidia-settings wasn’t enough but after playing around…

sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
then
gksudo nvidia-settings

did the trick for me.

Here is a cautionary tale. I upgraded Kubuntu 7.04 with a working proprietary nvidia binary driver for my laptop with a GeForce 440 Go 32M to Ubuntu Studio using these instructions. On reboot I my xserver was broken and I had to use a console. I wasn’t able to get it to work and had to go back to the free “nv” driver to use the gui desktop. Unfortunately I also up graded my desktop Kubuntu at the same time with the same results. Both seemed to work until I restartec. So far I haven’t gotten accelerated graphics to work on either system.

hmm it deleted part of my post, I was trying to say change the single quotes from ( ’ )
to ( ‘ )

I saw people are still having a problem pasting the commands (sudo su -c ’echo deb http://archive.ubuntustudio.org/ubuntustudio feisty main >> /etc/apt/sources.list’)

I did a test and found that you you change the single quotes before “echo” and after “list” from to then it works, if you look really closely they are different characters…in fact I don’t even know what characters they are.

sudo su -c ’echo deb http://archive.ubuntustudio.org/ubuntustudio feisty main >> /etc/apt/sources.list’

sudo su -c ‘echo deb http://archive.ubuntustudio.org/ubuntustudio feisty main >> /etc/apt/sources.list’

worked for me

I almost have this finished but I can’t get ubuntu audio to install properly.

It seemed to work fine in Kubuntu, but now I have errors…

Will ubustu run on a dualcore amd 64 machine, or is it only built for 32-bit machines?
Will there be a 64-bit version to?

I am having the same problem that kadag is having. I tried copy and pasting the sudo terminal command and it gave me the same error code. So, I took the above advice and hand=typed it in and it simply goes back to the empty command line without doing anything. I need help.

Also, is there anyway to make Ubuntu Studio a part of the package manager, like the other distros are (i.e. KDE, Xubuntu, Edubuntu…)
