anyone using mandrake 10.0 for audio stuff? i have an RME digipad96/8
pad. use sound with alsa+jack, installed ardour, rosegarden, several
synths,.. it's nice to see how audio is steadily growing on linux. but i
was wondering about the kernel. can i use the 2.6 kernel or should i use
the special compiled multimedia 2.4 kernel (for mandrake, via contrib
sources). and i have trouble as well to play with jack without being
root, but i guess i need to do some more tweaking and experimenting there.

regards,
kmd
