Matt you are right I have learnt a lot over the last few days and a lot
of the knowledge is transferable.
Also, I would not even have considered using ubuntu had someone here not
suggested it, so my time here was well spent.
"The knowledge you now have may benefit someone else down the road. It's
not a static situation and your contribution/participation only adds to
the overall base."
I think that based upon that comment it will be worth me sticking
around. It's only fair to share the knowledge that others have freely
shared.
All the best.
Bal.

Stick around , it's a great source and a great community. You may have
felt frustrated beyond belief, but if you stop and think how much you
have learned in a short period, and all that knowledge is under your
belt now. Even the decision to switch over to agnula/Demudi. I have
tried many GNU/Linux distros for many projects, not just my DAW.
I use several that work well for specific jobs - A lot of the knowledge
spills over.
I have found that there is no panacea in any OS ( I even use windoze for
certain things), I consider them all as excellent tools in my arsenal to
get jobs done, which is, after all why we use computers .
Fernando is a pretty amazing person, I can't think of too many
situations where you get direct answers, very quickly, from the person
doing the distro/development etc. I know that are some, but he works
tirelessly on this and responds like lightning on issues. The knowledge
you now have may benefit someone else down the road. It's not a static
situation and your contribution/participation only adds to the overall
base.
One of the things I have figured out about the planet CCRMA, is that the
Fedora versions and updates move at a fairly quick pace. The distro is
great one day and wrecks havoc with CCRMA the next - based on your
specific install/hardware etc. The Demudi distro , is pretty static -
but pretty stable. I used it for a while and it is fine, but I ended up
coming back to CCRMA. but that's just me, I found it seemed to work
better with my hardware, and with all my other machines. Again, whatever
works.
I didn't mean to go on such a long opinion, but I am also saying thanks
to Fernando and the CCRMA list as well.
Stick around, we'll all learn a thing or two.
Matt
have fun - make music.
