Ok...so I KNOW you guys couldn't care less about yet ~another~ Linux distro....And knowing how passionate one gets about this, I don't blame you! But this is top the authors of some of our most treasured audio apps... I have managed to build some RPM's for this new distro working with one of their developers. The only app they had that I could find was Audacity I think. So...I have helped them with: Qjackctl Jack-audio-connection-kit Ardour (with libsndfile, raptor, etc) These are functional and working correctly IMO. Someone else built 'em and sent them to me. I installed them and they worked. I have just finished building: swh-plugins (w/ fftw3) JAMin tap-plugins They worked on my system. Waiting to find out if they do on the devs system. If they do they will go into their "contrib" repository managed by apt. I'm going to talk with the main key developer. If he expresses interest in the area of pro quality audio and possibly catering to that area with modified kernels and the whole works, I'll continue to help bring it along as best I can. www.yoper.com if your interested. R~
