I managed to compare the -server and -generic kernel on my desktop, details follow.
System: Dell Dimension 1100 (Celeron(R) CPU 2.80GHz, Analog Devices AD1980) Configuration: Default Hardy install, using "nv" video driver, rev.23 patched default.pa. User is *not* part of pulse, pulse-access, pulse-rt groups, and no other customization to audio (i.e. .asoundrc) or pulseaudio. Test file: .avi movie (video codec: 624 x 352 XVID MPEG-4 24fps; audio codec: mp3 48Khz 131kbps) Procedure: 1. Open one instance of test file in Totem(-gstreamer) and two in VLC - total of three open movies. 2. Repeatedly perform multitasking operations (switch between movie windows, switch workspaces). Results: Both kernels: audio mixing works correctly, audio can be heard from all three movie players simultaneously. -generic kernel: noticeable audio stuttering during multitasking operations, otherwise audio seems ok. -server kernel: no audio stuttering during multitasking operations or inactivity. ** Attachment added: "PulseAudio log (desktop, rev23 patch)" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/13613330/pulseaudio-desktop.log -- firefox crashes on flash contents https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/192888 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
