Hi Rafael, I really like to keep my user name consistent. What I've decided to do for now, is just dual-boot a fresh install (64-bit) with my current install. That lets me have a functioning system while I figure out what to do. The install works well, except that I can't access files on my external audio drive, even though the permissions are wide open: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls -l /media total 12<snip> drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 2008-06-22 22:46 PPA1.2 drwxr-xr-x 21 root root 4096 2008-07-09 09:22 UbuntuStudio PPA1.2 is the external drive; UbuntuStudio is the old semi-broken installation. I can mount it and access files, like the permissions indicate. But on PPA1.2, I get messeges saying I don't have the needed permissions, even though it's rwx all the way across. I will mess with that later. On the new install, JACK lists my interface in both the Audio and ALSA tabs, so I could probably control synths and write MIDI, I haven't had time to fool around with that. The terminal works normally, and I can play both Ardour and Rosgarden through my external sound device. So, except for the drive, everything seems to be working. --Paul
