Hey :)

thank you, you made me starting the day with singing Penny Lane :). 
Excepted to The Beatles I don't have any of those songs in my vinyl 
collection, it's not really the music I'm listening to, but I like your 
Interpretations a lot, IMO they have a touch of melodic Punk Rock, even 
if it sounds more like folk/singer-songwriter music, it feels a bit like 
Hüsker Dü and similar music.

Are there any troubles? The last 14 month my new mobo wasn't fine with 
rt-audio on Linux (I'm not dissing Linux audio), but now it seems to be 
fine. If you prefer Ubuntu as distro and Ubuntu Studio cause troubles, 
you might give 64 Studio 3.0-beta3 (based on Ubuntu Hardy)  a chance. 
It's the first time that rt-audio is fine on my machine and this without 
doing any settings myself. (For my troubles I guess using jackdmp 
instead of jackd solved the troubles.)

I don't know if there is a user-mailing list for Ubuntu Studio, but 
there is one for 64 Studio, so your people in Halifax can get help by 
the list and I guess there are people from Canada subscribed to the list.

I'm not running Ardour, but I never heard about problems with Ardour on 
64 Studio 3.0-beta3. The only problems you might get, is that you need 
to compile some stuff, while there are no jack.h (libjack dev) and 
kernel headers in the repository, because its still a beta version.

I often read about problems with clean installations of Ubuntu Studio. I 
don't know if what I read is representative for Ubuntu Studio. Maybe 
it's easier to use 64 Studio 3.0-beta3.

Best,
Ralf
