Guys, I have been testing kernel 2.6.29.1-rt8 quite a bit now. This is the home made kernel Luke MacNeil had put on his web site. see download links:
http://www.lukemacneil.com/linux-headers-2.6.29.1-rt8-custom_2.6.29.1-rt8-custom-10.00.Custom_i386.deb http://www.lukemacneil.com/linux-image-2.6.29.1-rt8-custom_2.6.29.1-rt8-custom-10.00.Custom_i386.deb Firstly install 9.04 from scratch and after that install both debs by double clicking the files. Ignore the two ¨hmm¨ warnings you will get during installation. Then run update-manager if you want to. Do not use wicd network tool for wireless because it gave trouble in my pc causing it not to shut down properly (acpid exiting problem). I installed the ubuntu network manager instead. I have running it on a my single core P4 and on a dual core pc (Intel E8400) and runs without crashing and audio is handled real time as it should. Jack shows me latencies far below 1 ms . Jack settings: Priority = 89 Frames/Period = 128 Sample Rate = 48000 Periods/Buffer = 3 The rest is default settings. It seems that Luke has managed to build a fast kernel without speed and instability troubles. As far as I understand he has used an old ubuntu kernel configuration to setup his kernel (Hardy? I am not sure). Het took his sources from kernel.org. see web site : http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg04152.html I hope someone at the Ubuntu Studio team can have a look at the jaunty kernel and compare it with Lukes just to find out what is causing an almost unworkable situation. If i have some time left I will try to duplicate Lukes work and see if I can get the same results with newer kernel versions. I will keep you posted.
