Hmm,
a realtime preempt kernel alone will not nessecarily do any good. You
need to tune the irq handlers. If your network irq handler has a higher
RT prio than the soundcard irq handler, xruns are preprogrammed.
If you run RP make sure that:
a] the soundcard irq has the highest prio in the system (i.e. around 90)
b] all other irq's are left near their default (around 50)
c] jackd's prio is inbetween (i use 70 with great results)
If you then still get xruns, the hw is to blame [imho]. Or maybe a bug
in RP patches. Use the latency diagnosis tools that the RP kernel
provides to find out what part of the kernel produces the delays.
