Hi and a question
Hello, thank you for allowing me to join the forum. I've loved Artix so far, except for a few quirks that I'm sure I'll figure out.
I've had some issues with permissions related to a firewire audio interface, but they seem to come and go. What would be weird until I figured that out was that Audacity would work (sort of) but Reaper wouldn't. Most of my audio work has been done with Reaper so that is a necessity for me to run it....
But I immediately downloaded this copy of Artix OpenRC the other day and thought, this thing runs like a dream. Like what I always imagined Linux would become... and now I've found the forum and I see why.
I repeatedly have a problem with Pacman trying to update databases, and I tried several things including the sudo pacman -Syu.
I'm used to debian based Distros so some of this is new to me, but I definately thought watching pacman at the command line was cool. So... I do it... because no matter what, I can't update the computer.... and I get this

Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.
So basically the same at the end... even displayed it in a window.
My other question is, for real time audio with firewire, Do I need to go to Runit?
Thanks for any help and let me know if I should move this message.
