Just my two cents: I always found the use of multimedia technologies in Debian very difficult without any easily understandable reasons.
Since now there are lot of multimedia projects growing up around Debian (64Studio, ArtistX, Dreamlinux, Musix) not to mention the Rarewares/Marillat/Cinelerra external apt sources I think we should at least ship two things ready-made: 1) A multimedia/desktop oriented kernel like the one in 64Studio or here: ftp://musix.ourproject.org/pub/musix/deb/kernel/n directly in the Debian official archive. The reason why this has not been made already it's a secret to me, and a weird one. 2) A usable audio stack (jackd+real time adds) because otherwise most audio application are basically useless or very badly limited. The reason why this has not been made already it's a secret to me, and a even weirder one. Don't know how(I'm not a programmer), but if I can I would help with this for sure and forgive me if all this seems stupid or banal to you, Marco Ghirlanda -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
