Bug Description

When installing ubuntu-studio, linux-image-rt is installed.
If linux-restricted-modules is currently installed, no attempt is made to include linux-restricted-modules-rt, causing failure of nvidia graphics cards and other devices that use lrm drivers.

Installing linux-restricted-modules-rt fixes the problem.

You are right: ubuntu-studio meta package should be depend from linux-rt
and not from linux-image-rt.

Ciao,

This behavior is on purpose as we cannot have a package in Universe (our meta) depend on a package in Multiverse (linux-rt).

If installed using the instructions on the Ubuntu Studio wiki this does not happen. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/UpgradingFromGutsy

Wait,
I still think there's a problem with the ubuntustudio package:
As shown in the attached screenshot, ubuntustudio-audio recommends linux-image-rt.

From synaptic:
linux-rt depends on:
linux-image-rt
linux-restricted-modules-rt

However,
linux-image-rt does not depend on lrm-rt

If ubuntustudio-audio were to reccommend linux-rt instead of linux-image-rt, then this original problem would probably never have arisen.
While packages from universe cannot have dependencies from multiverse, they can have recommendations from multiverse.
