I am seeing lots of hard lock ups with Ubuntu Studio
9.04 too…
I have seen it on two my computers and two of my sons. These machines are all
different ages and have different hardware.
We tried to debug it for a little while, but since it was happening on such a
wide variety of hardware *and* since it was happening soon after boot up (i.e.
no heavy processing, sometimes even before starting jack) we gave up…
In fact, we are giving Arch Linux a try. We figure that if we have more
control over the configuration that maybe we can (finally) get a stable /
flexible Linux audio box… Don’t get me wrong – we are big fans of Linux audio…
but we want to spend “some” time making music too…
I had some problems with Ubuntu 9.04 also, and have run ArtistX 0.7 for
months now and it's been completely stable and functional:

Seems like a small community, but I've been posting as much assistance
to the forum as possible. It's an exceptionally complete distro - an
approx 9.8GB install supporting audio, video, and graphics right out of
"the box."
