Hey Henry, I had issues with Ubuntu when compiling some open source projects like Runnix. But Ubuntu uses a newer Kernel version with a very good realtime timer which is important for Asterisk.
Never had any issues with CentOS other than using an old Kernel version with a bad realtime timer. Cheers. Stephan Monette Unlimitel Inc.
