Yes, I will try the AA patches, though I am not very sure which to use, and on which kernel. The most recent one on a standard kernel (and not on a pre-release) seems to be http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/andrea/patches/v2.4/2.4.12aa1.bz2 Or do you think it is better to jump into the deep, and try to apply 2.4.15pre1aa1.bz2 on 2.4.14 ? > Maybe my 2.4.13 LL patches at > ftp.suse.com/pub/people/tiwai/suse-patches can be applied without > rejection. > > It's a different problem.

I would say on driver level: I write the data to disk right after the snd_pcm_readi call.
