I already have the normal Ubuntu 8.10 installed, but I want to upgrade to Ubuntu Studio 8.10. I know there was a way to do it in Feisty, but what about in 8.10? Oh and I'm a VERY new linux user so don't go too technical on me :p

Open a terminal (Applications>Accessories>Terminal) and type in

sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio-desktop ubuntustudio-audio ubuntustudio-audio-plugins ubuntustudio-graphics ubuntustudio-video

Ubuntu Studio uses a modified kernel if I remember correctly; does this upgrade from Ubuntu to Ubuntu Studio also change the kernel?
If it does not, is there a way to do this?

you'll need to add

linux-rt

to partyboi2's command if you also want the real-time/low-latency kernel.

I do NOT advise doing this. I tried out Studio and it gave a load of trouble with a "DPKG Error". If you want real advice, stick to Ubuntu or Xu and Ku.
