Hi,
I'm waiting for the 10.04 based release, but will the next release be
based on 10.04 or 10.10? I think 10.04 is a much better choice because
a) it has Long Time Support, so it's very stable, b) it has a RT
kernel,
c) 1010 offers not much more in terms of proaudio.
I'd vote for 10.10 seeing the nasty bugs with nvidia cards and default
10.04 :/ (i.e. blank screen, black screen, etc on boot)
about RT-kernel, I thought this was becoming obsolete (ie have rt
performance on non-rt-kernel) ? I might be wrong though =)
Yes you can use a generic kernel. In some situations a RT kernel can
improve your performance quite a bit.
I thought they where able to use Nvidia also with the RT kernels. See
also package here for example:

I was referring to the extremely boring issues I had while testing 10.04
when it was released.. I couldn't even log in (no display) on 2 different
machines.. (ati& nvidia) that meant fixing graphic card drivers on the
first boot, not very user friendly IMO for a LTS release...
but again, I'm def. not a guru !
Testing a release just after its release is always a risk. You better wait
till the 'point one' version is out or wait some weeks / months. 10.04.1 is
out already, so it is expected to be more stable and to have fixed some
issues, probably the ones you had to...
10.10 is the plan. The improved hardware support in 10.10 over 10.4 is
certainly one factor (important for a live boot distro). We're
thinking about kernels... it's on its way...
I thought that new drivers for hardware will also be added to a LTS
release... (?)
