A lot of the software packages for BSD and Linux are built and maintained by the very same people (eg. the GNU software stack). "His experiences with reporting bugs to Linux, are similar to mine" is a meaningless statement. Are we talking about submitting bugs to the kernel developers?

A lot of the core applications are the same (GNU). It still seems to me that you have not yet orientated yourself to the Open Source world. It is complicated, do not expect to understand it overnight. It is fundamentally different from the way Apple and Microsoft (and most proprietary vendors) work. Please have an open mind and start over. > BSD seems to be not convenient for RT audio and the system might fit You can pretty much kiss USB and firewire support goodbye. Your support device list is also a lot smaller. I have never tried to use a BSD machine as a DAW.

The main ones are netBSD, OpenBSD, and FreeBSD. I think that there may be one or two other variants. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFJSH8XwRXgH3rKGfMRAlY5AJ40yCPq0dw5FLbI32sYnsBCgcCTCgCfTyNO 81r3aNjaQoQWg4e695z1aN8= =RknU -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ 64studio-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.64studio.com/mailman/listinfo/64studio-users
