On an AMD 1.6 GHz, 512MB of RAM:
The installation went without problem, can be less questions than under Windows.
A fashion Debian: Installing Systm basic reboot on Systm, installation and configuration packages (automatic), the dernire tape is more or less time depending on how many you have chosen packetages .
Premire surprise from a distro Traditional:
When selecting packages, we just choose between Synths, Djing, Solfge, Recording, Midi, Players, rating, etc. ... We feel dja we will be able to have fun!

For the install I recommend you the option "desktop", which cre / partition for Systm, and a / home partition for your personal data. The advantage? APRS putting the bazaar in Systm, I decided to reinstall, without reformatting / home. So, I reboot on a system brand new, with my paramtres to front (bottom of screen, files on the desktop, internet favorites, etc ...)

For the grip, it should be understood that the Manir trait is his:
Alsa is sort of a Domain Manager audio drivers, so the main software interface for the sound card. The advantage of DeMuDc'est Intgr that Alsa is the heart of Systm ensuring minimal latency.
Jack is a sound server that lights dmarage in the form of a rack. In the table of connections, input and output sound of all the hardware available, and all audio software "on."
Them out of the synth sound of Hydrogen? Patch (if a is not done automatically) audio output to Alsa Hydrogen.
Order Hydrogen Midi? Patch the MIDI output of the MIDI Muse hydrogen.
Save the sound you hear coming out of three and soft at the same time?
Time Machine patch Jack audio output end and press record ...

In short, use a little habit of Drout for Wx or Mac, but for trs familire habitus of hardware: This is an extremely flexible virtual studio vritable.

FYI, an M Audio Audiophile 24/96 t recognized and installed automatically.

If no sound vrifier "alsamixergui" and vrifier levels of the mixer.

Not really man gnral, but the docs of the softs are free and become an expert in linux you can really rev quickly to the sound.

The offer audio software if you install the complete gives everything you need to have nothing to install for some years.
Ha yes! Apparently not enter the serial number install ...

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

Msi K7T Turbo 2 / Amd Athlon 1800 / 512 MB RAM / 180 GB / M Audio Audiophile 24/96

Everything is recognized and works at dmarage.

Power level, when one is discovering small small trs quickly hbahi:
We can parralllement a graphical session (desktop) open multiple session console (text mode).
It is Ctrl + F1 and it opens the first session text.
So you can rip a CD by typing
cdparanoia [track No.] / path / and / name / to / file [
Ripping and left.
Ha yes! I forgot! During this time the session in my graphic j'tait now to listen
Wave a few pieces and the sound has not changed one iota!
Whoever makes me the same as Windaube ...

The Systm is super stable, Gnome hangs from time to time but if you really want to reboot, log console and type reboot.

The office Fluxbox dchire serious! super functional, minimum RAM consumption.

OVERALL OPINION

0 Euros.
More 100aine a soft audio.
Stable.
Ergonomic.

But trying urgently!
