A Music Lover's Fedora Linux Workstation

· April 20, 2010 —

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!

Hi Jun, I like the new layout by the way. May I know how you did the scrolling banner on top and the recent posts thingie :)

Looks sweet!

@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

Anyway, I'll just stay tuned for other entries.

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.

@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 ;)

Fedora Linux Workstation is the best workstation seems you have everything in your workstation and so many gadget I wish I could setup my own Fedora Linux Workstation too. Linux the best OS with 100% virus free because no executable file to run this OS

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!
