IMO it will be hard to make him switch to AV when he is using ubuntu already. Not that its a bad idea to use AV for A and V ;-). But i still find gnome more user friendly and ubuntu allows you to easily install other non-AV-specific stuff.

He's allready installed ubuntu studio and is playing with it, I'll burn him AV 5.0.3 when it gets out so he'll give it a try. Well, actually I was surprised he was able to install ubuntu aside windows, do internet and start playing with Ardour, all in a couple of hours and without help or much prior knowledge - that definitely wasn't my first linux experience years ago. Things have really gone a long way. cheers, renato _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-...
