Re: [linux-audio-user] what distro do you use?

Last Tuesday 19 July 2005 22:05, michael(a)michaelshiloh.com was like: By the opposite token, this thread is making me consider setting up a gentoo partition on one of my machines, just to try it out. I'm running pretty low-end (recycled even) hardware, so compile times may force me to build a small specific set-up as suggested. BTW: Debian / DeMuDi for 3 years and counting. Ubuntu is good for general desktop / client machines, great for newbies, I got fed up with hoary after 2 weeks and decided that a few extra features didn't compare to sarge's broad based stability. That said, I'm finding Ubuntu very useful for frontline advocacy so I'm using it on the two client machines at 'work'. I have now come to the conclusion that all Debian based systems, especially A/DeMuDi and Ubuntu are now easier to install _and_ configure than Microsoft Windows XP as well as being much easier and safer to upgrade. I think that's a neat turnaround. ;] Indeed!:) tim hall http://glastonburymusic.org.uk
