whoa! I didnt want to start a war of words here...All I wanted is some answers
from fellow musicians. But this is more an ardour issue than a ubuntu studio
issue. its just that ardour crashes when I start the cleanup tool.
dont get me wrong too, the result I got from the ardour/hydrogen/jamin trio
were good enough to make me consider reformatting my drive alltogether and
forget that horrible windows environment forever.
the only thing is if I cant copy one song folder on one DVD, and I cant split
the folder without messing up ardour, then how am I supposed to backup my work?
thanks in advance, greg.> -- > Ubuntu-Studio-users mailing list>
