Are There Any Audio Only Based Distributions?
Posted: Tue Jan 21, 2020 5:01 pm
I read the thread down below, but it is a little bit old now.
I was wondering if there were any distributions based solely around audio? All the ones I have found seem to be multimedia focused, but I don't wish to do any video editing or animation or image work or anything like that on my studio computer.
I only use old hardware to save money and to try to reduce e-waste.
I am currently using Ubuntu Studio 18.04, and I tried to uninstall all the programmes I didn't want, but it somehow broke the desktop environment, and I couldn't log in anymore, but I was able to get into the command line and reinstall the desktop environment.
I hear talk about KX studio, but it doesn't seem to be a distribution anymore, just a set of packages.
Do I need to just install a base system of Debian or Ubuntu or something and then install a lightweight window manager like ICEWM and then just the audio software I want to use or something? I've got two small children so don't have a great deal of spare time, so can't spend endless hours customising.
