Ok have just tried using the midi gameport on the builtin soundcard,
and this works fine!
No hard freezes or anything.
But even now if i try and select that other midiport with qjackctl, it
gives me a hard lock.
Not that i mind too much now though, as i have working midi in and out.
Been sat playing on Zyn et al for most of this afternoon...

Ok, last night, i was waiting for the rc4 to download
and so decided to try again to patch and compile a kernel using 2.6.16
and ingos patch.
Left it going overnight, and this morning i have my own working
realtime preemptible kernel!
It installs, boots and works (nearly) fine.
But...
It still hard locks when i try and connect my midi port to anything
with qjackctl.
(and also wont let me log in, goes straight back to gdm, but i can
live with that)
So back to the original problem.
I am unsure what to try next.
Maybe, as i have two soundcards. one builtin and the cmedia one, and
they each hav a gameport/midi connection on them, maybe they are
providing conflicting irqs or something?
As i said i am unsure and a little out of my depth.

Try 2.6.17-rc4 (unpatched)
Ok trying that one now.
Do i just apply the release candidate patch to the vanilla 2.6.16?
Never was any good at this whole kernel compiling
thing, cheers for
your patience guys! (and gals)
I think you are on to something, there was an
identical unresolved
report just a week ago. It's definitely a kernel/ALSA bug, we need to
confirm it's present in the latest version now
Anyone else getting this?
