Hi all,
 
I've been trying to get PD up and running on linux 
for a while, but so far I've not been lucky, prolly because I'm a linux nub. The 
first installation I tried (Fedora) didn't have a familiar interface. The second 
(Ubuntu) did, but I couldn't install PD on it for some unknow reason. I used a 
tar-ball installation, and ran the "make install"-command and it did install on 
the computer, but PD just wouldn't start up. On the third distribution I tried 
JackLab, PD worked, but I had no internet connection.
I'm used to run normal pc's (Windows), so I'm after 
a distribution that has a graphic desktop environment to not make it too 
unfamiliar for starters. But most of all I'm after a distribution that will run 
PD-extended and do it good. Does any of 
you have any recommendations to which distribution to choose and perhaps 
good linux and audio-sites for nubs like me?
 
Cheers!
Thomas
