Slackware DAW essential configuration.
======================================
In order for a user to benefit from Slackware DAW, the user account must be a member of the 'audio' group!
The following OS modifications are made by this package:
Real-time tweaks:
-----------------
* For PAM based system, allow any user in 'audio' group to invoke rt capability.
* UDEV: allow access for 'audio' group to the high precision event timer, which may benefit a DAW which relies on ALSA MIDI.
* UDEV: grant write access to /dev/cpu_dma_latency to prevent CPU's from going into idle state.
* Audio related sysctl settings for better realtime performance.
Visual tweaks:
--------------
* Installs a new menu "Applications > Multimedia > Slackware DAW" and collect all the Slackware DAW applications in there. They will no longer be visible in the "Multimedia" menu.
* Installs a "Slackware DAW" icon in the hicolor icon directory.
* Installs a number of DAW related black&white wallpapers. It is up to the user to apply this as the desktop background.
Package management:
-------------------
* The package installs a slackpkg template file called 'daw' containing the list of all DAW related packages. From time to time, after the daw_base package has had an update, run these three commands as root:
# slackpkg update
# slackpkg install-template daw
# slackpkg upgrade-all
