Did you recompile the nvidia driver after doing this?

Excuse my ignorance but how can I tweak the latency timer for pci cards?
Btw I got some problems with my nvidia graphics card. When I compile new a
kernel with low latency and preempt patches(actually with the low latency
patch only is ok ) Applying the preemt patch and loading the nv or nvidia
drivers gives me a nice kernel oops. Anthony,
I had some problems with the accelerated NVIDIA driver so I turn it off
when I'm working with Ardour (this is a pain in the backside but it
helps). Also, if you're running the accelerated driver it kicks the
latency timer to 248 for the video card. I shut that (and everything
else) down to 32 and kicked the sound card to 248. My video card is AGP
but maybe setting the sound card timer to 248 could help you as well.
Thanks for the suggestion. Using either the "nvidia" or the free
"nv"
gives the same problem. I've played with the latency settings with no
success.
