I want to
have a look at Ardour and if you could point me to an OS and
how
to install what, then that'd help me a lot.
I'd recommend ubuntu:
www.ubuntu.com
It's good for beginners and laptops :)
Take a look in the wiki there on how to install software...i think there
I'd recommend anything else than ubuntu! As an ardour dev, I've tried
helping people fix their ubuntu systems to get ardour (and other
application) working smoothly. They've ran into strange problems etc. which
newbies can't handle by themselves.
If you are a linux newbie and your primary goal is to get Linux audio
working smoothly, you should go for Fedore Core 3 + Planet CCRMA

(btw. I have nothing against ubuntu or debian, I use debian myself and
wouldn't change it for the world. But. I'm not a newbie)

Hi friends
I agree with this : Agnula is perfect for music. Don't try do make a
"home made agnula ubuntu based" or you're gonna cry.
ubuntu is a nice linux for newbies, not for hard work. Not even for
"classic" work...
1° Agnula Demudi Debian based
2° APODIO 4.12.4 Mandriva based
