As an ardour dev, I've tried helping people fix their ubuntu systems to get ardour (and other application) working smoothly. They've ran into strange problems etc. which newbies can't handle by themselves. If you are a linux newbie and your primary goal is to get Linux audio working smoothly, you should go for Fedore Core 3 + Planet CCRMA (http://ccrma.stanford.edu/planetccrma/software/) (btw. I have nothing against ubuntu or debian, I use debian myself and wouldn't change it for the world. But. I'm not a newbie) Sampo Savolainen
