2.6 on suse is also different than 2.6 fedora, because suse has a couple
of audio programmers who work to make sure their kernel works with audio,
so I can use all my audio apps out of the box with 9.2, and the 2.6
kernel, without latency problems, and without needing a kernel recompile.

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.
Agreed, I would only go to 2.6 is you really need some features in it -
its basicly stopped one of my machines from being a useful audio box.
