Last Tuesday 13 July 2004 13:11, kmd was like:
can i use the 2.6 kernel or should i use
the special compiled multimedia 2.4 kernel (for mandrake, via contrib
sources). and i have trouble as well to play with jack without being
root,
General consensus seems to be that a 2.4 multimedia kernel is the 'stable'
approach. You won't have to run Jack as root if you run a patched multimedia
kernel. You probably won't need to do a lot of tweaking. Best approach is
probably to get a working system with 2.4 and then upgrade to 2.6 only if
you're really not happy with results. Personally, I will be happy to wait
until 2.6 is more stable.
