I am not on these list. I saw a patch somewhere google.

[linux-audio-user] rlimit pam??

by James Stone

I have been considering giving rlimits a go, but the link to the patched debian version of pam appears to have disappeared. I am loathe to go the tarball route as if I remove the libpam0g package I will also have to remove login!! Any useful links? I notice that the 0.8 ? version of pam will work with rlimits, but no deb repository carries it AFAIK. James

[linux-audio-user] How do I use this RT kernel?

by thewade

Hello list-o-mine, I have PD, jack, qjackctl, and all sorts of other tools built now, including kernel 2.6.13-rc4-RT-V0.7.53-02; So now what do I have to do to run audio in realtime? With the lsm kernel I could set permissions to my group ID and then I could just run everything as me. Do I have to run jackd and pd as root? Thanks for the help! -thewade PS: I am also curious if there is a linux-announce list for linux made audio, or are we still posting those to this list?

[linux-audio-user] Disabling cardbus prefetch for Echo Indigo

by Jon Stutters

Hi all, I'm trying to get an Echo Indigo IO working under Gentoo 2.6.12 kernel. The card's recognized correctly by ALSA and I can play through it but all output is badly distorted. I had the same problem on this laptop under Windows and fixed it using a utility from Echo to disable prefetch for the cardbus chipset (ENE CB1410). Does anyone know how to disable prefetch under Linux? I've had a go at hacking the cardbus driver source but I've not got the right result yet. If there are any other good places I could ask about this that'd be useful as well. Cheers, Jon Stutters www.jeremah.co.uk

Re: [linux-audio-user] VST Plugins Revisited (Again)

by davidrclark＠earthlink.net

Robin, Recently you posted: > Perhaps you could submit a few details, including packages, > distribution, hardware and error messages, rather than some vague > assertion. > F/OSS packages do not cost you anything so why not spend a little time, > posting the problems and filing bug reports to help improve the > software. In other words be constructive rather than destructive. First of all, the original statement to which I responded was vague. I merely responded in kind. Second, it appears that you didn't do your homework regarding bug reports, etc. FYI, the main problem is indiscriminant use of mlockall() in Linux audio, especially making it the default behavior. Many people are not affected by it because they aren't really doing much with their systems. Third, I've written Linux audio software myself, which I consider to be more constructive than many people here. Construction means making something, doesn't it? Fourth, labelling something as "destructive" or "not constructive" is counterproductive to further discussion, therefore counterproductive to that which you seem to be suggesting that I do. It defeats your own argument. Regards, Dave.

Re: [linux-audio-user] VST Plugins Revisited (Again)

by davidrclark＠earthlink.net

Hi again Ron, On another topic, you posted: > Or why does Linux only require one cold reboot for > every 10 or 20 of Mac OS 9? My experience has been that Linux audio requires 10 to 20 times as many reboots as Windows audio, the opposite of all other applications. The Linux kernels themselves, if left alone, are very stable. > Well, by stating it you are implying that it is your > opinion. My experience is different. I find Linux > audio production to have fewer distractions than Mac > OS 9. No, that's not my opinion. I stated exactly what my opinion was. Please don't misrepresent it. > Linux is far beyound a research platform. Nor did I say that it was solely a research platform. It is much more well-suited for research than Windows. IMO there is no competition there, not only in audio but in other fields as well. Since 1997, I've used exclusively Linux for everything but audio, finances, and digital photography. Prior to that, I used it at work at a semiconductor company, so I completely agree with you on that point. Regards, Dave.

Re: [linux-audio-user] Distortion -- bad speakers or cheap soundcard?

by mrmoo1231＠ahooyay.omcay

From: <davidrclark@email-addr-hidden> Date: Thu Aug 11 2005 - 19:28:51 EEST >> You've asked some good questions. And you gave some great answers. Thanks. I half expected responses saying I had included too many variables, and that there might be others that I hadn't even considered that made the answers to my questions impossible to pinpoint. I also had considered the possibility, after I sent the message, that it could be a less-than-high-quality soundfont in the mix...
