Re: Hi about scorpion

We don't recommend to use Scorpion for production machines in any case. You can use it on the daily basis, but keep in mind, you could meet more or less severe issues.

I do use Scorpion on quite a regular basis and the warning above will always apply to any distro which is used for testing, but I am very happy (so far) that it is running without issue for me.

Re: Hi about scorpion

Another question
1 .Are scorpion repositories different from Orion?

2. Can there be existing programs in the scorpion repositories do not present in Orion?  I ask because I am looking for a program audio recorder graphic ( no command line ) and perhaps other programs more up to date which may be (present) in the trial version scorpion but not in Orion. Or i am wrong?

Re: Hi about scorpion

1. Yes
2. Yes, the packages in the Scorpion repositories are newer versions of the same ones (and some more) and are currently being tested (and fixed) to become the next stable version. I use audacity (available in both repo's) for audio recording it is quite straight-forward to use.
