Hi Will. I thought you were going to plug 64studio before I looked at your
reply. I really wanted to resolve the problem on Debian Etch, and Lenny, but
will have to give 64studio a try.
iso.linuxquestions.org list it, but only the x86_64 version, and only v1.0.
Thankfully there are only 2 cd iso's, and shouldn't take too long on dialup.
I've just been to the 64studio site, but doh, it's only available as a dvd
download for 32bit, and I have a problem with dvd's, like no dvd writer.
Thanks for the reply. I'll keep looking for cd iso's.
Nigel.

I'd got so used to jack complaining when trying to use realtime, when it
wasn't available, that I presumed it was still the same, and the kernel
was realtime. I should have got used to the rt suffix by now, having used
the patched kernels from planetccrma for so long.
Sorry for confusing things - you can of course
get realtime scheduling
without having an RT-patched kernel. It's hard to get jackd to run
xrun-free without it though.
So what your saying, is that the realtime-lsm package of scripts may not
be too successful.
Do you know if there are any debian rt patched kernels available for
other debian based distros, that might work on Etch, or Lenny?

Thanks for the reply.
