Re: Graphics Cards

2013-06-10 Thread Gustin Johnson
I would stick to Intel integrated GPUs.  Most new nVidia mobile parts are
paired with Optimus, which I have first hand, painful experience with.  I
would put ATI in the second position as a result.

Re: Syncing Jack in multiple machines

2013-06-10 Thread Thijs van severen
jack transport via netjack works (tried it over a year ago, and will be
using it again in the near future to sync 3 laptops for live usage :-)
if i recall correctly there are -as always- multiple ways to use it and i
believe that there are tools that allow autoconfig of netjack
sorry if this sounds a bit vague, but if i find the time i'll start diggin
around

good luck!
grtz

http://netjack.sourceforge.net/ does that ... not sure how well it
works nowadays, but it's exactly for such stuff.

Disclaimer: I didn't use netjack myself yet.


Alrighty then,
