They both use the same kernel. ArtistX is loaded to the gills with audio, video and graphics applications. When I use UbuntuStudio, I'm always going, "Shoot, they don't have that program installed ... " And Ubuntu Studio gives me problems with xruns and announcements that there's not enough CPU available to run whatever synth I have running. I tried adding Ubuntu's RT kernel to my first US install, and all it did was trash the US installation. I like ArtistX. Hefty but very complete. -- David gnome@xxxxxxxxxxxxx authenticity, honesty, community _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
