You've certainly spent a lot of time writing posts instead of making music. I think you probably need to wind back a bit. First of all, double-check your PSU, memory, and hard disk. Random crashes are in my experience more often due to flaky hardware (ie hardware that is not broken, but is about to break). Even if everything works OK in Windows, that is no guarantee - Windows isn't as picky as Linux. Use memcheck, or try a new hard disk, or swap in another PSU. If you're content that all is OK on that front, pick one distro, install it, and *stick to it* - don't jump around between distros, or even flavours of distros. DON'T change anything - on 64Studio, why do you need to compile JACK or upgrade Rosegarden? 64Studio was put together specifically in order to avoid your having to do that sort of thing. Get the basic, default distro working solidly first, and *then* (in a few months) start experimenting. One of the big problems with new Linux users is that they have itchy fingers - just because you can upgrade from different repos or compile the latest point release of something doesn't mean you should. My main machine runs openSUSE, and the JAD distro worked fine on that, but there were intermittent problems that turned out to be a bad disk. My music machine (much lower spec) runs 64Studio, and it has worked fine so far. -- Pob hwyl / Best wishes Kevin Donnelly www.cymraeg.org.uk - Welsh-English autotranslator www.klebran.org.uk - Gwirydd gramadeg rhydd i'r Gymraeg www.eurfa.org.uk - Geiriadur rhydd i'r Gymraeg _______________________________________________ 64studio-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.64studio.com/mailman/listinfo/64studio-users
