Again, I don't do this sort of thing with my computer, but in the audio side I use a couple of different programs, whereas under Windows I only used one. This is quite common as most programs are made to do a specific task really well, as opposed to being mediocre or worse at several tasks. So for example, under windows I used Cubase for all my audio "work". Under linux I now use Rosegarden, Ardour, Audacity, and Rezound to name the most used programs to accomplish the same tasks. It took some effort to adapt my work flow, but in end I appreciate not being constrained by arbitrary limitations. What I am saying is that a single program may not exist to accomplish your task. You may need to use more than one program to get all the tasks done. | I am relitivly new to linux so some terms I might not understand but I went | through trying to get "lives" working on my machine with czmir and there is | no way for me anyway. also, its more of a studio type system.

At least in the audio side of things, most of the apps are fully featured. There are usually no stripped down "home" or basic versions.

It is also part of two media centric distros, Dynebolic and 64Studio. I mention this as it *might* make sense to switch distros. | how do I get my HDB on the system.

I only lightly use Gnome (and when I do, I tend to use konqueror instead of nautilus), but on the rare days that I use nautilus, there is an icon labelled computer that seems to have all my storage devices listed (CD/DVD, USB HD, the main HD etc.) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHo1JJwRXgH3rKGfMRAqQ/AJ43xCkV/qlAQqpNh1dM0+wlDl5x3ACfbey1 g2e13+Uk7CxpIGV2Gxl+Qyk= =PDrB -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [email protected] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) **Please remove these lines when replying
