So the new ubuntu is out and installing it is a breeze. Everything just works out of the box.
I remember when I first installed Red Hat back in 2000 it took 4 hours just to get the system in place and then another couple to configure the system so that startx would work !! Yeah, I was not pleased at the black terminal after 4 hours of installs and looking at an XP machine next to me. And then I promptly crashed it coz I did not know I shouldn't use root to do my work![No No :nono: :nono:](http://www.sevenstring.org/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/nono.gif)
But Linux has come a long way, now you can pop the CD in and browse while it installs everything you want for you. Now there are a million variants on Ubuntu itself which is a variant of Debian (MoonOS, Foresight, Mint).
Does anyone here use Linux as a primary OS for DAW purposes ? I have't had much success with either Ubuntu Studio or Studio 64 ?![Scratch :scratch: :scratch:](http://www.sevenstring.org/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/scratchhead.gif)
