Anyway, I have a dual core 1.3 CPU machine with an internal Intel card and Ubuntu 8.10 with the KDE 4.2 (I used to have open box when running rt-kernel) desktop and an external USB card. I did have plenty of xruns even with the external card and nothing helped before I started using jackdmp 1.9.<br>

The USB card is an old M-audio Mobile PreUSB (44100 16-bit). I do not record often with on my lap top, but everything works fine when I have to use it.<br>

I have used jackdmp around 11 months now and it's IMO the only choice on a 64 bits machine with more than one core. I also use jackdmp on my studio machine and are really happy with it.<br>
