no. but we are ready. which is a lot better then just a year ago. I
mean the stuff you described above actually works! that's pretty
amazing, I was waiting for this moment for years (well, not _this_
moment but a moment few month go when I tried to setup recording and
everything worked!)
now let me go google some more on sb live and full-duplex :-) [that's
not linux specific issue though, I think]

Y'know
what? All it would take would be for one demo recorded someplace
to generate a contract and people would be clamoring for linux audio.
If you're talking about attracting people like *us*... Yes... But, if
you're talking about everyone else...
"Hi... I'm "Joe WindowsUser'. I just installed Linux."
App_X didn't have sound, so I googled for 3 hours. Apperently, I need to
run and "audio server" called "Jack". What's an "Audio
Server"?
I googled for three hours and found out how to use Jack.
I must be forgetting something because it's still not working.
After gigging all night, I still had time to google and find out that
there a group called "Linux Audio Users". They will help me.
Got my answer to why Jack isn't working... It was confusing and took 3
hours to figure out. But now I can connect a mic and record some music.
But my keyboard doesn't work... What's wrong?
I googled for 3 hours and found out I need to connect "virtual ports"
together. What the hell is a "virtual port".
Linux Audio Users told me to use "KAConnect" to connect virtual ports.
But all I saw was stuff like 'Rawmidi 0 - EMU10K1 MPU-401 (UART)'...
What the hell is 'Rawmidi 0 - EMU10K1 MPU-401 (UART)'? I connected my
keyboard up the the midi port... where's my midi port in the list?
The next day I got my answer... and everthing was connected up right.
But they tell me I have to "load the wavetabe". Let me send an email to
Linux Audio Users and see if they can tell me how to "load the wavetable".
Is there anyone here that thinks we're ready for the "general public"?
