"The Ubuntu Studio team is proud to announce its sixth release: Ubuntu Studio 9.10 'Karmic Koala'. With this release, which you can download in a 1.4 GB DVD, Ubuntu Studio offers a pre-made selection of packages, targeted at audio producers, video producers and graphic designers. Ubuntu Studio greatly simplifies the Linux-based multimedia workstation. Features: official upstream real-time kernel; font meta package added to the graphics meta, which installs hundreds of free fonts; Xwax and a2jmidid packaged and added to the audio meta-package; Xjadeo added to the video meta; Firewire libraries are now upgraded to 2.0...."
I tried this out, but went back to normal ubuntu within 48 hours. It works beautifully as a linux studio, but isn't that easy to get it working for other stuff aswell. It also lacks alot of the new features of ubuntu 9.10, including a gui installer, ubuntu one, software, gnome-network-manager, email/chat client, just to name a few. It would only put this on a box that would be used for media production. (you can't even connect to the internet with it!!!)
