Hi,

Wanted to post a quick success story with the 2.5
kernel series:
Machine
processor VIA C3 Ezra
cpu MHz : 932.918
bogomips : 1843.20
256MB ram
Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8233 AC97 Audio
Controller (rev 50)
Debian unstable.
This is the little VIA mini-itx I use for email, horrible little built-in
Via audio.
Built linux-2.5.72 from BK source, installed ALSA 0.9.4 libs+goop,
built jack 0.71.2 from debian source, also had to recompile alsaplayer
(from cvs)
After that, it Just Works.
As i said, horrible chipset, but with
jackd --tmpdir=/mnt/ramfs --realtime -P 20 -d alsa -d via82xx:0,0 -p1024
-n3 -r 32000 -s -zr -P &
I can stream mp3's from my SLiMP3 server to alsaplayer (text) with no
dropouts, while running KDE3.2 and typing this email!
I made a few passes at this machine with 2.4, but i could _not get useable
audio - overwhelmed by pops and crackles.
Cool that these mini-itx machines actually does work :)
I was wondering, where you refering to 2.4 as in 2.4+ll+(whatever)
and 2.5 was, infact, performing better? *fingers crossed*
