When I move into the house in a little over a month, I will have a
proper recording studio.  I get to "store" a bunch of my Dad's gear :)
Might make for a fun workshop-like event.

| Kewl, how much would you be asking for it?

Less than the list price obviously.  I am sure we can come to an
arrangement.  Possibly a gear or services swap

64Studio is, as I am sure many people are sick of me saying, is
currently my favourite distro for this sort of thing.

With integrated audio, I would not be too aggressive with the timings.
Try increasing the Frames/Period to 1024 and the Periods/Buffer to 4 to
start.

This gives reasonable performance on my laptop with the occasional xrun.
~ I also do not have a proper rt kernel on the laptop (buggy chipset).
My  actual recording rig is a 939 based AMD64.  Hardware is well
supported, and I have a very well supported audio card which makes life
much nicer.

It is worth getting a better sound card if live playing or really low
latency is important.

Hth,
