Hmm, except for some sched policy setting problems on NPTL, I don't
see bigger problem than 2.4+preempt kernel. For some people,
2.4+preempt might work _casually_ better than 2.6, but it can happen
vice versa.
Shouting "DON'T USE 2.6" isn't a good solution. Though, we need to
inform to "set LD_ASSUME_KERNEL as a workaround"...

I am using the latest 2.6.7 kernel (tried also
2.6.5) but with hdsp I cannot s
elect anything lower than 1024x2 buffer settings in jackd without having massi
ve xruns.
Give up on 2.6 for now. If you can't give up on it, then at least run
all (audio) apps with the environment variable LD_ASSUME_KERNEL set to
2.4.19.
When the dust settles from the kernel and NPTL, 2.6 will be more
viable. Right now, even though it works for some people, its not a
generally viable platform for realtime audio.
