Thanks Brian. That is very helpful. I am reevaluating again. I actually didn't 
change much after I originally posted. This is the time if I am going to do it 
this year.

For a long time, I used Studio64 but it wasn't being updated and I was

running into driver issues on new hardware installations. In August, I

installed XUbuntu and added all of the music programs I use but have been

really unhappy with Ubuntu. There have been stability issues and frequent

loss of communication to software synthesizers. Before I do my next round of

compositions, I want to ditch Ubuntu.Does anyone have a recommendation for

an audio distro? Remember, I am doing this with middle school student so

stability and consistency are paramount. Personally, I have been a suse

person for several years but there are a couple of quirks to doing digital

audio and MIDI on suse that I don't mind dealing with myself but don't want

to spring on my students.Thanks.Dave

I use two different computers for my elementary school classes.  Both my

laptop and amdx6 dual boot.  Both run AVL 6.0.1b.  Desktop also runs 12.04

LTS because I needed smartboard drivers and at the time, 12.04LTS was the

way to go.  Since some time, I find AVL 6 works as well.  AVL is debian.

Its rock solid and very stable.  The laptop also runs the most bleeding edge

ubuntu 13.10 daily.



My reason to have AVL 6 on both computers is because when students are in my

room, its just got to work.  And JACK runs much better on AVL.  Could be

debain and/or stable branch.  Also the people behind AVL are very cool and

support is great.  At least the best I have experienced in the computer world.



** Try AVL 6.

That is my recommendation.  Good luck!
