Ubuntu and Linrad run seamlessly here. I did not have to compile a
single module. I had to download some binaries. The trick with Ubuntu
is to use synaptic package manager and run setup and add the "not GPL"
repositories, multiverse, universe (sub atomic particles?)
repositories. Synaptic is a breeze to drive.

Hello, All,
I am converting my last remaining RedHat Computer to another distro, as I need
to install some 'new' files so I can play with dttsp on that computer, and its
too much of a pain to get these files installed and set up in a very old
[pre-Fedora] version of Red Hat Linux due to tye usual Linux dependency issues.
I HAVE gotten dttsp etc to compile/run on another machine running Debian
testing, but know that I lack most of the pre-requisites on my RHL computer for
the needed files.
SO I have decided to try the new flavor of Debian, Ubuntu. I see that IS0KYB
got Linrad working with this, using ALSA. I would probably be using ALSA to
start, but then switching to OSS.
I have some questions for the group, understanding that since I can get Debian
installed and running Linrad in my sleep I should have no problem with this,
but also understanding that 'should' and 'logic' both often seem foreign to the
free software Linux universe:
1. Has anyone experienced any significant 'issues' installing Ubuntu and
running Linrad?
2. Has anyone other than Marco IS0KYB actually done this?
Thanks,
Roger Rehr
