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!
