[LAU] Linux Poetry: X-run blues

Hi, See below for my contribution to Linux audio poetry, reflections of personal struggle ;-) Thanks to all Linux audio developers and supporters for all the great software, I hope no one feels offended or ridiculed by the lyrics. Thanks, Kees X-run blues (battle hymn of Linux audio newbies) ---------------- I woke up early one morning, I got me the X-run blues I woke up early one morning, I got me the X-run blues Must've missed a couple of warnings, and I don't have any clues I was all set to record, enter the X-run blues I was really ready to record, enter the X-run blues Could be the cpufreq, or them funny IRQs I started googling for advice on lower latency I started googling for advice on lower latency It said 'Compile yourself a realtime kernel, son, and you just wait and see' I switched to Ardour III, I paid my Ardour dues I switched to Ardour III, I paid my Ardour dues Tried all of the Jack flavors, can't lose the X-run blues I developed 'X' paranoia, Xubuntu's where I'm at I developed 'X' paranoia, the worst I ever had Would switching to Fedora get me F-runs instead Lately I don't care too much, though there's lots of things to check Right now I don't care too much, lots of settings still to check I like the vintage pops and crackles, just like a Robert Johnson track
