hello all, new user on this mailing list. just wondering...
recently did a hardware upgrade and experienced some lengthy down time from ubuntu studio [in between that time]. long story short... i tried installing a stable 8.04.1 AMD64 ubuntustudio but that failed so i installed from ubuntu desktop live cd, using 8.10 second release. reading this recent email digest below, i am wondering if i can go ahead and install a real time kernel safely, being that i read a post on ubuntu website saying 2 avoid ubuntustudio 8.10 and use stable hardy. can i consider that particular note obsolete or if not, would it b possible 2 install an rt-kernel from hardy via apt-get and safely use it? thx in advance. i really miss my ubu-stu:) - - - - On Sun, 15 Feb 2009 10:00:38 +0000 [email protected] wrote: > Send Ubuntu-Studio-users mailing list submissions to > [email protected] > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > [email protected] > > You can reach the person managing the list at > [email protected] > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of Ubuntu-Studio-users digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
