Hi all, I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 on my Netbooks with Real-Time kernel for audio operations. I have 2 queries regarding this - 1. What is the LTS version of Ubuntu 10.04?
There are certain versions of Ubuntu labeled LTS. 10.4 is one of them. LTS stands for "long term support" that is: you get updates/fixes for it until April 2013.
2. The RealTime Ubuntu Wiki page states that the -rt kernel will not be supported anymore. What do you suggest me to use as a stable kernel for Real-Time Audio processing purposes?
I have tested it with the plain standard desktop-kernel and it performed very well for audio after jackd-install and setup. The RT-Kernel from CCRMA in a Fedora 14 installation on the same machine allowed a bit lower latency but with 8ms, both systems performed equally -- the Fedora-Installation felt a bit more reliable to me but only gradually and I doubt, that this differences are related to the kernel.
So in a word: if you want to use Ubuntu for audio, do so, it works as is. If it does not work for you, consider to install another Linux-Distro, if there is anyone out there who can tell different stories about a complete RT-kernel and Ubuntu 10.4 I gladly stand corrected ...
