Ubuntu Advice

If anyone wants to try installing ubuntu, here's some tips:

The best way to install it is to use the Windows Installer. that can be found here: http://www.ubuntulinux.org/desktop/get-ubuntu/windows-installer

Do understand that it will basically split your hard drive for you, which means you'll have a bit less hard drive space. It shouldn't be a problem

Once you've got it installed, the best way to get PD is to go into "Applications" up in the left corner. From there, go into "Ubuntu Software Center", and go to "Get Software". Type in "Pure Data" in the search bar in the top left corner. Click on the pure data icon, and as long as you're connected to the internet, it should immediately install Pure Data. Pretty nice, eh?

To get MIDI support:

Go back into "Ubuntu Software Center", and go into "Get Software". Type in "Jack Control". Click on the "Jack Control" icon. That should give you the MIDI support, which is similar to MIDI yoke on windows.
