Hello Thomas,

What is in /etc/default/rtirq now? And what is the outcome of ps -eLo
pid,cls,rtprio,pri,nice,cmd | grep -i "irq" ? I have a notebook with a
Firewire controller that shares an interrupt with some other devices but
managed to get Firewire working with the help of rtirq. And what kind of
window manager are you using? Did you try disabling as much background
processes and daemons as possible? With 512 Mb you should really use a
light weight window manager like fluxbox, openbox or icewm. On my little
netbook JACK doesn't run happily either with Gnome, with IceWM it's no
problem at all.
Just some suggestions.

Best,

Jeremy
