I have tried both Fedora 15 and 16 and discovered Gnome 3. Very sad for<br>
Linux. After 12 years as a user and staunch supporter of Red Hat/Fedora<br>
I have no choice but to move on. I find Gnome 3 simply unusable.<br>
<br>
What would be the best alternative Linux distro to use with the Planet<br>
CCRMA suite of applications (principally Jack, Ardour, Rosegarden,<br>
QSynth and Hydrogen)?<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
