Just a quick note: trying to 'apt-get install demudi-all' over anything 
but Debian Woody will end in tears. My experience is that newer KDE 
packages, in particular, create a rat's-nest of dependencies which get 
quickly broken by down-grading to the needs of the DeMuDi packages, 
especially qjackctl and some of the midi ones that use QT. Afraid you'll 
have to choose between a fancy desktop and a full-on DeMuDi box for the 
time being...

best,
D.
