Good one dude - this is something I've been meaning to get around to for
ages but other things always seem to get in the way. I always had
trouble getting realtime kernel patches to work, but if there's a live
CD debian based distro that's got all that covered, I should just give
that a go :)

Ardour, Rosegarden good places to start, and Hydrogen for drum loops

Cheers,
