Many of us use Planet CCRMA because Fernando keeps upgrading packages. Reguardless, it's not reasonable to keep up with Ardour. As bugs are reported and fixed, CVS is updated. New fixes and bugs are discovered daily. One stragety is to run the available CCRMA version and the CVS version--just don't 'make install' for the CVS. > > gonna suggest you upgrade but you are new to linux > > that might not be the best advice.

You might have to do some work in the editor but that's not the end of the world. Have you tried that yet? Don't misinterpret my suggestion, you can use Ardour but you've gotta be prepared to deal with bugs. If you know that, you can avoid some frustration, keep learning and having fun.
