You mean Autodesk Smoke/Flame/Inferno? Out of my league.

I run UbuntuStudio on my laptop, which is a free version of Ubuntu created by Canonical especially for media needs. It uses a real-time kernel and has the Kino NLE along with a lot of other open source applications for video and audio.

You can download the DVD iso and learn more here:

A second vote for UbuntuStudio. I've started recommending it to clients and colleagues in developing countries who don't have much startup cash. I haven't used it much myself, but everyone has been happy with it so far.

Does UbuntuStudio do HDV or just SD?
