Is there any difference with using Ubuntu 11.04? Or should I stick with 10.04?

I'm about to switch from fedora and wanted to use 11.04 but not if it will give me issues

You can use 11.04, but I believe there are some additional things that need to be setup. I was reading about it in a thread somewhere, so I decided to just go with 10.04. Most tutorials are for 10.04 anyways, so If your new to building, that may make it easier.

10.04lts and lower are by far the best for compilation. You will start to run into problems after you install every thing and tell it to build. What really sucks is it takes about 20-30 minutes of compilation to error out. I believe it has to do with a kernel conflict in the newer versions of Ubuntu.
Do your self a favor and stick with the 10.04

I'm not saying you can't use other flavors of Linux by any means, I'm just saying it goes much smoother with 10.04. Tons of reading + copy and paste tutorials available with 10.04. Also from experience ( 11.10 ) with other Ubuntu renditions I can tell you the headaches are more trouble then their worth.

Agreed. Though I finally got everything working on 11.10, it took lots of reading, experiementing, and a couple full ubuntu re-installs.

I am by no means an ubuntu expert, but I had success with 11.10 after changing lib32readline5-dev to lib32readline-dev and then a "sudo apt-get install libx11-dev:i386".

Thanks for the tutorial!
