I would like to reprint something from cooker, since I know Austin does not possibly have the time to have monitored newbie as well as put this together for us
and many many THANKS to Austin,
Well, since 9.1 should be out next week, and most of the kernel/alsa/jack problems seem to be cleared up, I'd like to present the howto for setting up a digital audio workstation with Mandrake 9.1.
While several specialty distros have tried to come up with a pro quality, easy to set-up DAW, they have failed or are floundering. What people don't realize is that you don't need a specialty distro. You can set up a DAW on Mandrake 9.1 with about six commands. Hopefully this will be publicised a bit, and may be a good selling point for Mandrake 9.1.

Comments/corrections/suggestions are welcome.
Many thanks to Buchan, Danny, and Quel for assistance and ideas.
And thanks to you! I've bookmarked it for future reference, i.e. when I have some better hardware.
Sir Robin
