@ thorgal, could you take a look at: http://linuxmusicians.com/viewtopic.php ... =543#p2122 ?

Why not?? I am finding out quickly that certain distributions are better for certain tasks that others. I will say that overall there were a few standouts in terms of what I liked and more then likely I am just going to stick with these distributions:thorgal wrote:great to hear you finally succeeded
now that you have a working setup, I wouldn't fiddle around too much with distros if I were you
That may be still a long way off. Since I had so much trouble with getting audio to work up until now, I really have not played with many applications in Linux. From what I gather both Ardour and Rosegarden have a long learning curve. I only recently figured out what to do in Jack and I been using that with Mixxx (a DJ mixing program). I have yet to even scratch the surface with Ardour or Rosegarden, so I am open to suggestions to good guides to learn how to mix with them. I DID do a basic test with Ardour connected to Jack and it does work...but outside of that I have not been doing much messing around. It looks like there is alot to Ardour and I am going to need some additional information on how to work it.Anyway, when you have some music sort of completed, it would be nice to hear it, just curious, after all these months, it must feel like you want to focus on music, right ?
If you don't want to disclose you stuff, that's fine too.
Actually, the only similarity between OpenSuSE and Fedora/Redhat is that they use RPM for package management. Otherwise they are completely different and unrelated.OpenSuSE 11.0: This is the new kid on the block for me. I just decided to try it out because I wanted to see what a KDE/Red Hat platform looked like and OpenSuSE seems to be the most popular of the Red Hat distributions. I only started to dabble with it the past two weeks. It really does look like a nice, well polished, distribution. But it is a pretty big installation. Definitely not light weight. Open SuSE does have a DAW based distribution called JackLab and it does hold some promise, but as of now the (community) support base for it is very small.
