hi all. been lurking for a few weeks, taking it all in. this list seems to be a pretty awesome resource, so i'm glad to be on it. i'm just getting my feet wet with production (been djing for about 6 years, give or take), and while for now most of my composition (dance-ish stuff, mostly) will continue to happen in the unfortunate world of xp, i'm going to be buying an extra harddrive pretty soon here so that i can start dual booting into linux for mastering and for recording my friends live, which i'm very eager to begin doing. my question is this: is debian (demudi) a good place to start (re)learning linux, given my intention to use the linux environment first and foremost as a daw? the last time i ran linux i was 16, and only barely able to "run" it successfuly. i remember _very_ little of it at this point. but i'm a reasonably quick study, and i'm pretty motivated to learn it and make it work. any input would be welcomed and appreciated. my apologies if this is a question that gets fielded regularly; that being the case, a reference to an old thread or a faq would be great. thanks, charles ____________________________________________________ Start your day with Yahoo! - make it your home page http://www.yahoo.com/r/hs
