+1 I installed a Ubuntu Studio that is a PITA. I installed Edubuntu, then the needed Ubuntu Studio packages and it is working like a charm ... not by default, regarding to some well known X issues and a missing RT-kernel. Anyway, I still have some issues. - Most of the times I manually need to run 'pon dsl-provoider' after startup - The mouse-wheel almost never works - S/PDIF doesn't work - even turning off pulseaudio completely kept some issues - The kernels default frequency scaling does automatically change from 'performance' to 'ondemand' after a session was started. A no go, because for a lot of audio apps this will cause xruns, even without CPU load + without much use of the memory. I'm not fine with obsolet audio apps for a Studio distro, e.g. the oldish envy24 control instead of mudita. On Tue, 2011-04-26 at 18:27 +0100, Anthony Hall wrote: > It has to be said..

That's the problem with Ubuntu Studio for me. It might be a very good consumer OS for a Theatre PC, but it needs a lot of tweaking to become a OS for productions. Of course, I'm talking about at least about sophisticated home recording, where zero jitter and proper sync etc. is needed. Missing WLAN = missing additional electric smog definitively isn't an issue for a studio distro, because such stuff IMO has no business in an av studio. 2 Cents, Ralf -- Ubuntu-Studio-users mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users
