| Features: * JACK Audio Connection Kit * X resolution change * multiple monitor support * kernel 2.6 |
This is a Dynebolic wishlist. If you want something added to Dynebolic, you can add it here. Please only add software that is free (as in speech). |

| Applications: * sweep, audio processor * gnusound, audio processor * litestream, audio streaming server * rexima, commandline volume mixer with jack-support * Cheesetracker, tracker * hydrogen, drum machine * spiralsynthmodular, nice modular synthy thingy only useful when jack's available * Ardour, hard disc recorder * Freqtweak, super cool frequency band mangler * jack-rack, LADSPA effectbox * qjackctl, extremely handy JACK controller * xmms-jack, allows xmms to play over JACK * Supercollider, real time audio programming language (still in cvs, but already quite usable, Linux version will probably be in cvs for a long long while, so it would be kewl to include it anyway, oh and there's already a Debian package somewhere) |
Please say who you are that wants it, and why (say something about it) |

Dynebolic Unwishlist
What do you think should be removed from dynebolic, and why?
Features
Fluxbox
Fluxbox and Windowmaker seem to give almost exactly the same functionality. They seem as bad as each other to me, and having two systems to do the same thing increases complexity, and doubles the work in maintaining the menus etc etc. (which, in practice, is not done: in d:b 1.1.1, the flux box menu is months out of date and does not reflect reality.) -martin
Maybe xpde can take over one of them? Many Gnubies would feel at home instantly
http://xpde.com/ I think that qvwm+xfm [http://www.qvwm.org/] will be much better...
Applications
Lives video editor
LiVES decodes each frame into a single JPEG file in /tmp. 3 hours of Lord of the Rings at 25 frames per second is a LOT of files, never mind the disk space. LiVES is unusable as a direct result of this. Another video editor (cinelerra) just moves up and down the file and seems to have little problem with even the largest file.
