Hi, I have been lurking on the list so now I want to say hi.I am part of the ubuntu users group in Brazil. Can anyone tell me *very briefly* what is the current state of play regarding realtime-lsm in the 2.6.* kernels and whether this feature (or something like it ) is likely to be introduced into the kernel anytime soon. I cannot find anything on the net apart from some discussions between the kernel devs and linux-audio-dev guys which did not really clear anything up for me. I am not asking in order to cause a big debate about the values or otherwise of realtime-lsm but I want to make sure I am clear about the current situation. We have made some metapackages based on DeMuDi for the Ubuntu-BR Multimedia-audio distro and doing something like this -> # apt-get install build-essential fakeroot linux-headers-$(uname -r) is the only way I can think of to enable realtime-lsm in the kernel without asking the user to use module-assistant to enable it after install which is something we don want to do Regards Ian Linux is more than a business. Linux is a community. Linux is more than an operating system. Linux is a dream. We know that as computer users, we represent a small percentage of the computer industry as a whole. The important thing is that we know we're right, and we're going to change the future of the software industry one long night at a time.
