[linux-audio-user] Non-low latency "playing around"

[Jan "Evil Twin" Depner]

Lonnie,

	You don't really need to build the low-latency kernel to run Ardour but
you do need to upgrade a number of things that may effect your system to
build it.  I'm thinking specifically of the autoconf/automake/gettext
stuff although there are probably a few others
(http://myweb.cableone.net/eviltwin69/ALSA_JACK_ARDOUR.html covers the
rest).  Planet CCRMA
(http://ccrma-www.stanford.edu/planetccrma/software/) will give you a
pretty good rundown on not only Ardour but a bunch of other packages as
well.
