Hi Christian :)

this is one argument to choose 64 Studio, the second argument is that
all audio apps are old, but for most hardware stable. I'm having a
multiboot with some Suse and some 64 Studio. I again recommend that you
give 64 Studio a chance, you can do a dualboot for Hardy and 64 Studio 2.1.

You might have the same trouble with Orca, but you won't have to think
about the audio applications. ALSA is running there using a RT kernel
and applications for artists stable by default, excepted for some
hardware that isn't fine for any Linux.

There also is a mailing list for 64 Studio with kind people. I guess JAD
and Ubuntu Studio might have a less good free support and I won't think
about distros like Dynebolic. They all might have their advantages,
that's why I'm using Suse too, but the easiest way seems to use 64 Studio.

Cheers,
Ralf
