Excerpts from james morris's message of 2010-02-05 14:55:26 +0100:
I've started trying to get a RT pre-empt system using Gentoo. It's
painful. Spent most of my time so far just trying to boot a custom
kernel which I had zero problems with in Debian.
Is the pro_audio overlay any good? does it have the latest s/w?
Before I built a custom 2.6.31-rt20 kernel, I used the pro_audio overlay
to get rt-sources which gave 2.6.16 which seems ancient.
Would anyone actually recommend gentoo for setting up an RT audio system?
Hey James,
I have no experience with gentoo myself but I know that the guys from
openoctave.org recommend it. They push Linux audio pretty hard, so
gentoo should be well suited.
Regards,
Philipp
