A Music Lover's Fedora Linux Workstation

- - 10 comments
We've got here our very first entry for "The $100.00 (USD) Coolest Linux Workspace Contest". It's from Mauricio, a Music Theory student. If he wins the contest, he says that he will be using the money to buy a USB mic for some serious music recording.

Check out Mauricio's Fedora Linux workstation:


Owner's note: My current system was built about a year ago and I do NOT dual-boot. I have been using Linux for almost two years. I started with Fedora, but tried other distros and always come back to Fedora.


I'm running Fedora 12 64-bit and I am waiting for Fedora 13 to be released... I can't wait! One of the monitors I cannot get to work... there was a bug in the first nvidia kmods, but it seems the patch has been implemented for a while now, but I never bothered to mess with my xorg.conf anymore since Fedora 13 is around the corner.


Thank you Mauricio and good luck!

  2. @dannybuntu: It's a JavaScript slider. The tabbed menu navigation that I'm using at the sidebar is the same as this one: http://www.webupd8.org/2009/03/howto-blogger-tabbed-navigation-menu.html

  6. Thanks for sharing. That's all well and good about the hardware.. but could you also clue us in on what software you use in your work flow.

  7. @anonymous, for what kind of 'work'?

    I guess the main applications I use are:

    terminal :D
    Gimp
    Tuxguitar
    Audacity
    Gedit
    Firefox
    Pidgin
    Banshee
    mplayer

    If you were referring to what applications I use for audio recording... I must say I have not played with recording too much in Linux. I do use Audacity for general use, but nothing too fancy.
    For notation I still prefer the 'old-school' method of pen and paper; nothing beats that ;)

  9. Benito III RTFM! :P You know, "executable" is kinda different than ".exe"? Anywho... no need to drag, but I do agree Linux Workstation is the best. Best regards!
