Unless you're using Pd + GEM, of course.
Or if you happen to like the OpenGL spectral display in Snd.
Windows users would point out CsoundAV as well. You
won't get a lot of help from the open source community if you
insist on loading proprietary kernel modules. The FIRST thing you
should do if you're trying to optimize your system is don't load any
binary only kernel modules!!!
well, better a working closed-source driver, than no driver at all..
