could anyone give some feedback on differences, advantages, disadvantages about using Ubuntu Studio vs 64Studio? I have been using Ubuntu Studio for a few months but I am not so happy with it since I upgraded to Gutsy.
i want to use it for PD, Supercollider, Python programming, and will be using it with a firewire soundcard. I read in a general music forums that 64Studio is more efficient and reliable but I would like to hear from somebody doing similar work as me.
64studio and Ubuntustudio aren't much different in itself, in fact, they even share a lot of packages taken from Debian. For example the pd-packages on both are the same. The desktop may be configured differently, though, but that's a per-user-setting, which you can change of course. So I wouldn't bother with reinstalling the system completely, but instead configure the system so you like it. Maybe use a diffferent window manager or build your own kernel? What exactly is wrong with your machine?
well... I found that some applications are a bit buggy. but i guess this is the applications and not the system itself. Also I cannot Jack to work with my RME Digi96/8 sound card. But I see this is the same with the 64Studio live cd so I guess it is a problem with the card configuration or jack.
