Hi Arthur :)

with my new hardware (ASUS M2A-VM HDMI, Athlon dual core 2.1GHz 64-bit,
1920MB RAM, on-board graphics) I tested it only with 64 Studio 2.1
default (kernel 2.6.21 and 2.6.24), 64 Studio 2.1 Lenny (kernel 2.6.21)
and Suse 11.0 (kernel 2.6.25). It's totally disastrous, with those
distros and kernels. Linux at all is fine, excepted of MIDI applications
like Rosegarden and Muse, even when in use as HD recorder (without using
MIDI).

With my old hardware (ASRock K7VT2, Athlon single core 900MHz 32-bit,
1280MB RAM, AGP NVidia) Linux at all wasn't fine. A lot of simple
non-audio applications, that are running with my new hardware, without
any problems, didn't run with my old hardware, but even if Rosegarden
crashed much, much to often, it was relative fine, excepted of the fact,
that the CPU was to slow for my needs and I couldn't make music, because
of CPU overloads. Operating systems were 64 Studio 2.1 rc1 and JAD (Suse
10.x)

With that old hardware Windows 98 se and Windows XP MCE (XP MCE AIO
crack version) were 100% stable and I had enough resources with just
256MB RAM, I started with upgrading my hardware by getting 1024MB more
RAM for my old hardware.

So the answer to your question is "no" (for my actual hardware).

Linux at all is fine, it wasn't with my old hardware, but the exception
is MIDI, it was better with my old hardware.

Because of the cold I'm not working on the computer, but I will try to
update to the latest BIOS today and maybe I'll try kernel 2.6.26 with rt
patch for 64 Studio 2.1 default too.

Cheers,
Ralf
