When there was no MIDI jitter for hw midi, this was the first thing I
did. In general I'm making backups very often and I don't sync one
backup archive, I always make completely new backups and keep at least
the last two backups.

A while ago I tidied up my HDDs and removed most installs.

I kept Suse 11.2 and Ubuntu Maverick only.
Then I installed Natty.

I'll keep those and additionally install Debian, I hope that Debian
stable isn't outdated, http://packages.debian.org/stable/ ...

If it shouldn't be outdated, I'll install it and stop setting up Natty
immediately.

Thanks a lot,

Ralf
