.pltk.
Yup. yaourt -S cadence and recommendeds, and yaourt/pacman the apps I
use (right now, just yoshimi). Also the usual config changes discovered
with realtimeconfigquickscan, no kernel change needed, no reload. It
helps that I use xfce4, which interferes a lot less than other desktops
have in my past. I was very surprised at how well it went; in my most
recent production box build, about a year ago, I had to scrag xfce4 and
go with LXDE to get rid of some xruns.
