Hi Aymeric,
and will switch to karsten's 2.6.24.7-rt17-pure
soonish.
And this will also be the default p:d kernel for the next liveCD
release, as it seems 25 and 26 are too dodgy at the moment.
If all goes well, we could use this kernel config as a basis for a
common effort to build a LAT kernel
I'm very much in favour of that, because it means we can bring our
combined resources and communities to the quality assurance process.
Having a reference implementation of the kernel might also help us to
work with audio hardware manufacturers, because it would enable us to be
definitive about whether a particular piece of hardware was supported or
not, and apply fixes where required. For example, we used to be able to
say that M Audio devices were generally supported, but the newest
hardware revision of the Delta range is problematic with current ALSA,
and the new M Audio multichannel USB 2.0 interfaces are not class
compliant either.
Cheers!
Daniel
