Hi
I second that Ubuntu maybe not is a very good choice for serious audio
production. I was badly hurt a little while ago claiming that I could
get my windowsXP installation to run at 1.5ms with my RME Multiface
while my newinstalled UbuntuStudio coun't :)
But after that I tried out SUSE 11.0 with Jacklab, I simply followed
this guide: http://en.opensuse.org/JackLab/3_Steps_to_JAD_for_Beginners_2
I don't look back at any other distribution, because there is a lot of
great system management tools to help you work on your distribution, and
It works well both on my Laptop with pcmcia and on my desktop computer
with PCI. And now my Multiface runs steaddy at 5.3 ms latency.

I am going to build a new machine specifically
for recording and producing
professional audio. I am somewhat new to Linux (and to building computers),
but I would like to dual boot XP and Ubuntu and gradually switch over to
Ubuntu for my recording projects.
Before you settle on Ubuntu, _especially_ if music is your main
application for this machine, have a look at the various audio
optimized distributions.
Try here:
http://www.ubuntustudio.org/ -- much like your choice
http://ccrma.stanford.edu/planetccrma/software/ -- well supported
http://www.mandriva.com/ -- my choice
http://www.64studio.com/ -- 64-bit option
http://www.dynebolic.org/ -- I looked at it once
http://demudi.agnula.org/
Good luck....
