Hi, Comic Cuteness hat gesagt: // Comic Cuteness wrote:
after reading about knoppix on this list, I obtained the image. it's
truly the coolest!
I also got around to try it yesterday and I can confirm it's a
pleasant suprise.
I guess knoppix uses oss because it does sound configuration with the
red hat utility -
Yes, I think that's the reason.
if I recall you can't get really low latency with oss? does pd even
work with oss?
I'm a big ALSA fan, but both of this isn't true. You can get low
latency with OSS as well and PD works just fine with OSS. Running off a CD is a lot worse latency-wise.
I'd much rather use alsa, but you know what they say about beggars.
I know somebody mentioned this before, but it would be amazing to make an audio oriented image of this. or I might have to install linux. hehe
Throwing away OpenOffice and installing PD and some other soundapps on
it wouldn't be that hard.
I'll take a closer look at how to customize Knoppix the next days and
will report here. Probably customizing is easier if one is running Debian, because that's the base for Knoppix, and I am running Debian.
ciao,
