I'm not likely to do much musically for the next few months. I do have one interesting out though. To get full browsing capabilities (Java & flash + mplayer, etc.) I run Firefox in a completely chroot'ed 32-bit enviroment on my AMD64 machine. I haven't considered doing serious audio this until now, but possibly I can run two jack servers, one in the 64-bit area using the HDSP 9652, to run Ardour, etc, and a second in the 32-bit area using either the onboard NVidia chip or I could put a second card in if this worked and was useful. I'd tie the two environments together with external spdif or audio cables. Would it work? Might be fun to try. - Mark
