[LAU] First KXlinux headaches.

[ailo]

I was trying to find KXlinux on the web. Could someone post a link?

I was trying to find out whether it uses pulseaudio. From what I've 
understood, Envy24 is no go with pulseaudio, right?

If KXlinux doesn't work out for you I recommend trying out puredyne 911.
http://puredyne.org/download.html
It's a live distro, so you can run it from a CD or a usb-stick, or 
install it. Which ever way you want.
The rt-kernel is magnificient on that particular version. No sudden 
crashes. I had no problems with getting nvidia graphics to run (needed 
to be installed manually, though). It's the rt-kernel from Ubuntu 
Karmic's repo.

Here is a how to create the live usb, for anyone intrested:
