I believe that here Marco means "if you install windows from scratch and you compare to debian, installed from scratch, then windows is more responsive". If my interpretation is correct, my question is, Marco according to your experience is the installation of a multimedia/desktop kernel on a plain Debian (or Linux) distribution enough to fill the responsiveness gap? >>1) Include in Debian a Multimedia/Desktop Kernel IVT> I agree it should also be available an apt-get away nevertheless. This is actually not that straight. I've tried to that myself about one year ago, and the feedback from the debian-kernel folks was really positive, but also clear in the "guarantees" that the possible multimedia kernel maintainer should offer. I was basically said that if I wanted a multimedia flavour to be added, I also had to be available to provide support for the security updates, both in stable and in testing. This request is pretty reasonable to me, but also quite demanding, and I'm not sure if we, as Debian Multimedia Team, have the forces to keep with such a task. >>2) Make Jackd usable out of the box or after the installation of a >>"normal" package IVT> I find it usable out of the box... I agree with what Daniel said, the focus of general purpose distribution is different, but I also agree that we can do much better.
