Re: [LAT] Tickless kernel and realtime

I'm using tickless realtime kernels ever since the NO_HZ option was available. At 2.6.19 I measured MIDI latency/jitter around 1kHz/1ms using NO_HZ on i686. Audio I/O works just fine on tickless 2.6.24-rt - there are no X-Runs with JACK under normal operation even down to 256fpp on USB. I have no idea ;) you can try `apt-cache search kernel | grep 2.6.24` and `apt-get install linux-source-2.6.24...` Instead of compiling your own, you can also try to use the kernel from 64studio (it's also debian based) which IIRC is tickless: http://apt.64studio.com/64studio/stable/pool/main/l/linux-2.6/ install with `sudo dpkg -i linux-image...deb` - You can find more information on compiling and post-compilation setup notes here: http://64studio.com/node/504 Maybe you also find the config and patches from pure-dyne useful. They use ubuntustudio-kernel patches and provide diffs that works with a vanilla kernel from kernel.org - see https://code.goto10.org/projects/puredyne/browser/live/kernel/2.6.24 HTH, robin
