This is very useful to have various applications launch in different windows to make it easier to use.<br /><br />Just for fun, I'm including my '''/etc/X11/xorg.conf''' file for reference (in case anyone else has similar video cards): [[http://matrix.senecac.on.ca/~murray.saul/xorg.conf.txt txt]]<br /><br />I had to "tweak" the BIOS to actually boot up with the PCI Nvidia card instead of the ATI card.

The current applications that I use are: '''Jack''', '''Qsynth''' (Sound Bank, including grand piano), '''Hydrogen''' (Drum Machine), '''Bristol Organ''' (Hammond B3, Continental Vox (i.e. Doors), and Rhodes Piano), '''Ardour DAW''' (Digial Audio Workstation).<br /><br />Here is a link to my partially completed shell script: [ [http://matrix.senecac.on.ca/~murray.saul/session.bash.txt txt] ]<br /><br />
