Usually it's Xubuntu. This time I chose 32 bit not only to run Sun's javaws, but also to run Renoise. I figured other 32-bit only apps will come along. All things considered, an entire operating system doesn't take up that much space -- compared to all of the audio files I work with!

(I don't know but it would seem reasonable) Can’t you just run the 32 bit java in your 64 bit os? (I don’t know but it would seem reasonable)

Here's the problem: 1. I have a 64 bit machine. 2. The current 'javaws' for 64 bit is broken (openjdk -- sun-java hasn't ported it to 64 at all). 3. In order to do it, I have to boot into a 32 bit environment -- which I'm doing right now, since I dual-boot. Took a while for me to figure it out, though, which is why it's not mentioned above!

I use Ubuntu Studio and enjoy recording music, but it's been frustrating to get the computer set up the way it needs to go (I'm by no means a professional). I've RSSed your page, so I'll check in again in the future. Great outcome on the uptime!
