have you tried vanilla 2.6.13-whatever. 2.6.12 was
horrible for me, but it
seems .13 has the ingo patches (sans hard-realtime) rolled in, as well as
new timing resolution stuff (1000hz), and whatever it is amongst those,
made everything finally work as it should (and much lower latencies than
windows ever had)
Thanks for the tip-off. I have weighed the 2.6.12-multimedia-whatever packages
from DeMuDi in the balance and found them wanting - Still they don't come up
to the performance of the 2.4.27-multimedia kernel. (I'm talking about the
pre-packaged kernels from A/DeMuDi here). I am very much encouraged by this
report and I think it's well past time I delved into compiling my own kernel.
It's a bit of a testament to Free Ekanayaka's skills as Distro maintainer that
I haven't bothered so far, but as he's taking a well deserved holiday right
now, that gives me the impetus to give it a go. So, you're saying this
version doesn't need patching? Seems like a good place to start then.
Any warnings, pointers, suggested methods welcomed at this point, but I dare
say most of the information I need is out there already.
