Cool, and good timing, since there is a UDS session tomorrow when this flavour is going to be discussed. Here's some feedback. I'm at UDS but I was bold enough to install it directly on Maverick, on my laptop with an HDA card.
I tried to do some testing and so far I haven't seen any difference. I haven't experienced any instability or something like that, but I haven't experienced any improvments either. I tried jack with 256x2 buffers and got underruns with both the standard Maverick kernel and the 2.6.36-1-lowlatency kernel. 2x1024 gave no underruns on the generic one, never tested that setting on the lowlatency version. Perhaps I've done something wrong. I should really do more testing, see if there is any buffer size where there is a difference, and try to get to the bottom of that to see what's actually causing the underruns. (Which means I have to learn how to do that...) // David -- Ubuntu-Studio-devel mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-devel
