I think that it is very suitable, *if* you know how to create your own kernel that allows for jack, et al to run with preemptable capabilities. I am not very knowledgeable with compiling kernels, so I had to wait until someone else provided a how-to for getting my own kernel. Quite the contrary, I see big things on the horizon for Ubuntu. This might be heresy, but I would like for Agnula to merge its efforts in with Ubuntu, thus making both distributions more complete.
