Gentoo. That kernel is the gentoo patched one (with LL and PE). At some point I might test it with the RME hdsp/cardbus, but I think it will be fine, the cardbus chipset is TI. > >I tested with alsaplayer, jack-rack and freqtweak together loading > >the system to > 80% cpu utilization and no xruns at > >256 period size (and possibly less) and 48k. > Cool. > That's about 5.3 ms, which is good :) I think you could even go lower.... i actually tried 64 and non-intensive audio duties (alsaplayer only) seemed fine even while compiling. It all depends on your target application.... for low-impact softsynths or samplers I think you can get some pretty impressive playability even from the builtin audio. As it only has a mic input... i don't think you'll be using it for realtime fx :)
