I didn’t reach out for help with UbuntuStudio – I was also having problems with the kubuntu desktop. I knew I preferred debian kde, so I moved on to KXStudio. I contacted linuxmusicians for help with that, about a week ago, but no response yet.
Then I read about fedorajam, so I decided to try that. I’m quite impressed with the fedora kde. I'm picky about desktops, most are pretty quirky. I usually use chromeos, but I may just stick with fedora even if I can’t get the jam studio working. Today I was able to decrease the volume. I couldn’t get that to work on either KXStudio or the AVLinux live-usb. That said, I do need to focus on playing my guitar, linux is turning into a rabbit hole. bruce On Mon, Nov 2, 2020 at 3:01 PM Steve Batte <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Erich, > > I know this chain is getting long, but I have a big decision to make and > need advice.
