I'm using Ubuntu Studio 10.10 with no realtime kernel, Rosegarden works fine
(along with Jack and other apps I use in conjunction with Rosegarden, like
Ardour, xjadeo, etc). Your machine needs more RAM, though, 512MB is pretty
tight, you'll be very limited with what you can do with plugins and other
programs that Rosegarden may need (like QSynth).

This may be apropos to your question also:
