Hi and thanks for the quick response.<br><br>>> There are other dists than ubuntu too :) that in many cases are far better suited for audio...<br>Yeah I guess. But I'm not only using my pc for audio as it's the family laptop :)<br>
Anyway I think it's my last attempt at ubuntu as I get tired of it, if think it's great to begin with but now I want something a bit more... well... stable and smaller. Something I can have easy control.<br>So which ones would you suggest for reasonable tweaking, easily maintanable, with good hardware support (as I'm using a laptop) and fun to use for people who don't care about which OS they're using (meaning a cool and friendly desktop with the regular apps that one can use on other OS) ?<br>
<br>> Also, there is linux 2.6.33-rt for lucid in kxstudio PPA. It is not in
the main PPA but look for "KXstudio team kernels and drivers". <br>Great thanks Pablo, I'll try this one...<br><br>> Tango Studio is Ubuntu-based, dedicated to audio and has a very good realtime kernel.<br>
I've been looking at TangoStudio earlier but it's too much audio/video oriented for me. I want something a bit more versatile (with automatic package update for instance). I don't want to bother to update my system manually. Actually, I just use a few apps (jack, ardour, hydrogen, bristol, yoshimi plus effects) not the whole bunch so I always fear these distros (tangostudio, ubuntustudio, ..) that come with a lot of apps. I usually get lost <br>
<br>Thanks and cheers<br>jy<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2011/11/13 Jeremy Jongepier <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:jeremy@autostatic.com">jeremy@autostatic.com</a>></span><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">

indeed, especially if you want to do your own system tweaking ...<br>
<br>
... but if you do want ubuntu you could try xubuntu instead<br>

Hello Simon,<br>
<br>
Ubuntu is perfectly suited for system tweaking, it's just another Linux distribution.<br>
<br>
Best,<br>
