[ardour-users] Ardour, Jack, and FreeBob

[Pau Arumi]

I recently wrote a blog entry about the device i bought (focusrite
saffire) and how to enable freebob on linux.
I found that on ubuntu feisty and debian sid/etch its very easy (no need
even to download jack svn) since the libfreebob is already packaged and
you only need to recompile the jack (debian) source package.
I don't know if you are using one of these distros but I hope it might
be useful anyway:
