Ok, I decided to give Ubuntu 6.06 a try. It is using alsa, but they must 
have audacity compiled with the ability to use alsa.  I can record just 
fine.  I've been thinking about switching to Ubuntu for a while, because 
I like their philosophy and also I like using programs that are a bit 
newer.  I also like Debian and the way it works; so Ubuntu may be the 
best of both worlds.

I'll wait to see if I want to install KDE on it.

Of course, in order to play mp3 with Totem I had to install a bunch of 
things.  ubuntu.com has such a great wiki, though, that it wasn't hard 
to find the list of things.
