there seems to be a bunch ov fancy soft-synths included too, but i already have synthesisers, and effects. All I really want is to be able to record midi and audio in the same app. Rosegarden looks like it will do this really well.

debian is the distribution, gnome is the window manager.
i started with mandrake 7.0 because that was what was on the front of the first magazine i bought. worked fine, so i've stayed with it.
that said, the new suse has mainactor bundled with it (video editing, which i do quite a lot of) so i'm tempted by that. that said, it'd probably be easier and cheaper to just buy mainactor.

so, basically, you're just keeping the box? 8)

(the one problem i can see is the spotty nature of opengl support on linux. nvidia only do binary drivers, ati drivers don't support newest cards...) (couldn't get the nvidia drivers working on my mandrake box due to some missing kernel header files. now boot into gentoo distro if i'm writing opengl stuff)

anyone tried the new ubuntu (11.04) ?
just installed it and the windows manager is, well, different
also mildly revolted by the use of the word "Apps" everywhere
