I'm looking for a good linux distro for audio/music applications. My last foray into this world of linux music was with RedHat 9 and I never did quite get the JACK audio/ALSA thing to work very well. I went back to Windows out of necessity, but now I'm about to try again...any suggestions as to which distro is best? I want something that perhaps already has ALSA drivers, so I'm downloading the latest KNOPPIX and UBUNTU DVDs thinking preconfigured OS might be the way to go...but I also want something streamlined, efficient for audio.
