Linux drivers

Probably not so much. 

the only thing I've realy done with audio in Linux is setup a cheap M-Audio Keystation and
learn to play a few songs. 

So while I know more then your average Linux user about audio stuff I have zero real world
experience, even as a amateur. Plus a lot of the stuff I know probably isn't really up to
date. I haven't kept up any.


What would be very cool though would be to get a hold of the folks behind 64studio or Ubuntu
Studio and get them to talk about real-world setups from people actually using Linux to
produce music. 

Hardware setups... software configuration, favorite software. Midi tools.. firewire or USB
accessories. Basement/bedroom studio setups, professional people using Linux. Challenges and
what they think could be done to make things better. What they would consider best place to
start for people doing simple recordings all the way up to trying to produce a album to stick
on myspace or anything in between.

That sort of thing.

Meanwhile there are places online that are worth keeping a eye on.http://www.linuxaudio.org/
for example. 

As far as I am concerned the level of quality and diversity of open source audio software
combined with the performance, stability, and affordability of Linux makes Linux Audio one of
the more disappointingly well kept secret s of Free software.
