[LAD] KX Studio: questions and suggestions,

[Mike Cookson]

Hello, lists.
Not long ago I tried KX Studio 10.04.1 (updated LiveDVD) and installed it from stratch.
I am very glad to see linuxsampler, included to this distro. Of course, there is more notable things, but it is most for me.
2) Missing dependies: jack-netsource-gui from zenity.
3) Also, disk content's size is less then 2 Gb, so some packages would be nice included to disk: MuseScore, Aeolus, Ingen.
4) Needs packaging Cinecutie; cinelerra doesn't support unicode (very critical for russian and like users), not speaking about GUI. I don't see any reason to use cinelerra instead cinecutie. Both cinecutie and cinelerra have own PPA, maintained by Akirad.

Now a question: what is difference between kernels: linux-preempt from general ubuntu 10.04 repo and lowlatency/realtime kernels from kxstudio? There are two things, that caused me to be interested with kernel from standard ubuntu repository:
1) problems with Nouveau drivers at realtime kernel (nouveau module not found, though I have installed headers) and
2) When I select lowlatency driver, it goes into mode, specified with video= parameter, only after some time, when splash already appeared with theme, not specified through default.plymouth alternative.
