Hi

D:B uses the old
slackware tgz packages. If you can get one for your app & transfer it
with removable media you can install it from a terminal with the
command

installpkg insert_packagename.tgz

If you get a deb package
or an rpm you could try converting it with the command

alien -t
insert_packagename.deb

to make a slackware package first.

fmit is
also a good tuner - though these days my fx unit has one built in so I
tend to just use that. MP3's of the string pitches is a good distro
agnostic way to go, if your ears are up to it. I agree tuning is
important - If you don't tune for that 1st take you are in trouble
trying to tune the others to it.

hope this helps
Guy
