Need support with my DAW based on Debian Squeeze

[zwenny]

I've build my DAW upon Debian Squeeze and i'm going a straight open source way.
Sometimes it's hard to stick to it, but i think it's a good opportunity to deepen my linux-knowledge.
Unfurtunately i've encountered some problems i can't solve by myself and i would appreciate a little help from you:

1. I'm routing every sound to jackd (even gnash's audio output creating a jackplug with asoundrc).
   Recently i've recognized that the sound of HTML5-videos is not delivered to jackd. It's coming going directly to alsa. Is it possible to change this?
2. Another anoying problem is that sometimes VLC's audio output is distorted when it connect's a second time to jackd. I don't know if it's only VLC, but it's the only application i've realized this behaviour.
3. My graphics are done with the open source nouveau-driver. When i'm watching videos with much action there often screen glitches. I've tried to fix that with Deinterlaced and Frame dropping, but it doesn't seem to work this way. Is this maybe configured in the nouveau-driver itself?

Many thanks in advance.

You should check out AVLinux which is an audio/video optimized version of Debian Squeeze, might save you a lot of setup time.

Hm... I've tried it, but there was a lot of proprietery stuff.
Besides i need some kind of Hybrid-OS. That offers all the
functions of a DAW as well as for it specialized usage.
So far i haven't found a distro that covers my needs, so
i build up a system of my own...
