Hmm, haven't had problems making Debian do what I want.

My usual shutdown process: close Rosegarden. Close Zyn/Yoshimi/Fluid/etc. Stop JACK using QJackCtl. Close QJackCtl. Shutdown with no problems. Basically, the reverse of the process I use to start them. -- David gn...@hawaii.rr.com authenticity, honesty, community http://clanjones.org/david/ http://dancing-treefrog.deviantart.com/ -- Everyone hates slow websites.

Re: [Rosegarden-user] Rosegarden friendly distros
I tried MusiX-2 and it was the first time I could get Rosegarden to work really. There seemed to be no support at that time and I let it go. Also tried Ubuntu-Studio-12.04 and it worked fine but having been spoiled I have a hard time doing what I want in any Debian-based system so I keep it as a stby. My primary system is OpenSuse which is very easy and clean to use but Rosegarden could not be used on it at all with Jack until version 12.2 when the devs really put it all together eventhough Suse is not known as a MM strong distro. I now CAN set it all up with Qsynth, qjackctl, Zyn (and Pulse uninstalled). There is one residual pissoff issue withit it though and that has to do with jack connections I think. A lot depends on the shutdown sequence, I ususally disconnect all in qjackctl and then shut down the apps in the group. If I mess this part up, or every time some of them just crash, then a real mess ensues requiring at a minimum a KDE reset, sometimes SEVERAL complete reboots on az Asus Crosshair-IV system with two onboard sound devices. KDE seems to be screwed up as to which can or cannot be used until it gets sorted out after several reboots. Now that I've heard about MisiX-3 I'll sure check it out too.

Using Aptosid, which just updated their stock kernel to 3.8.0, one that seems to have xrun problems compared to 3.4 or 3.7 on my 4-core 2.8GHz Phenom II desktop system. Or maybe the problem lies in Yoshimi and Zyn ... -- David gn...@hawaii.rr.com authenticity, honesty, community http://clanjones.org/david/ http://dancing-treefrog.deviantart.com/ -- Everyone hates slow websites.

[Rosegarden-user] Rosegarden friendly Linux distributions
Continuing to respond to David's request for info on Linux distributions that are easy to operate Rosegarden on, I mostly use Debian Squeeze but sometimes Knoppix. Knoppix is easier to install. The latest Knoppix is based on Debian Wheezy and works like a charm. -- Everyone hates slow websites. So do we.
