[Cooker] The Mandrake Audio Workstation

[Austin]

Well, since 9.1 should be out next week, and most of the 
kernel/alsa/jack problems seem to be cleared up, I'd like to present 
the howto for setting up a digital audio workstation with Mandrake 9.1.

While several specialty distros have tried to come up with a pro 
quality, easy to set-up DAW, they have failed or are floundering.  What 
people don't realize is that you don't need a specialty distro.  You 
can set up a DAW on Mandrake 9.1 with about six commands.  Hopefully 
this will be publicised a bit, and may be a good selling point for 
Mandrake 9.1.

Comments/corrections/suggestions are welcome.

Many thanks to Buchan, Danny, and Quel for assistance and ideas.

Enjoy,
Austin
