Hi Sili,
Please forgive me for my english.
No need - your English is fine.
For audio stuff we should stop crusade. We should
choose
one GUI paltform.
I'm inclined to agree. I know a lot of people are choosing Fluxbox
because of the low resource overhead.
I saw only two application that runs on any linux
distro with easy
installation without using make, configure etc and spending time to
install additional libraries if required (Netscape and openoffice).
Perhaps they were static binaries, with all the libraries compiled in.
Although that's a good way to make sure an application will install
without dependencies, I don't think it's particularly efficient. In
my view, the best solution is a robust package management system such
as apt or urpmi. Apt is used by both DeMuDi and Planet CCRMA at home,
while Thac's RPMs for Mandrake uses urpmi.
You should seriously
consider what i wrote above as future standards for audio
application listed in distros.
While there is the freedesktop.org initiative for general users, I
don't think anyone has attempted to set compatibility standards for
Linux audio workstations. At the moment, I'd expect that most of the
adaptation work is falling on the binary package maintainers.
Its time to do right thing and not
just talking about it.
I'm in 100% agreement with you there!
Cheers
Daniel

Sorry guys,
but I think I missed the initial part of this thread - I can't
understand what the problem is.
Can someone point me in the right direction?
Bye,
andrea

Oh, thanks. I just couldn't understand what the problem was (I
probably don't now, either).

I wrote an email to Daniel my view about how the linux audio
workstation should work.

Oh, thanks - I guess I'll just have to re-read your mail, then.
