Hi Jeanette, thank you for your advice.

I#m not sure how to read this table..
Looking at /proc/asound/cards will also give you a
list of your
currently recognised ALSA soundcards.
cat /proc/asound/cards
0 [HDMI ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel HDMI
HDA Intel HDMI at 0xf2610000 irq 32
1 [PCH ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel PCH
HDA Intel PCH at 0xf2614000 irq 33
2 [CODEC ]: USB-Audio - USB AUDIO CODEC
BurrBrown from Texas Instruments USB AUDIO CODEC
at usb-0000:00:14.0-1, full s
Set the IRQ of the soundcard that you want to use for
your realtime
audio. And probably do it with:
export VARIABLENAME=irq_number
(if you're in bash/sh).
For the card 2 this would be
"export SOUND_CARD_IRQ=usb-0000:00:14.0-1" ?
Next, you might want to check your swap-space. I had
problems with that.
My hard disk is a little slow and both swapping and recording/streaming
from the same disk might cause issues. If you're drive is new and fast
enough: don't worry.
It's a SSD. Not brand new, but reasonably fast I believe. I have a 2 GB
swap partition on the drive.
If you're using JACK, check the periods and
buffersize. Perhaps it's a
little low.
It is.. :)
The quickscan script didn't find your filesystem
types, it appears,
unless that was only the missing /tmp to which that "not found"
referred. Check your partition filesystems. You can look at /etc/fstab
or /etc/mtab. The first specifies how your partitions should be handled,
but that might contain the odd automatic discovery. mtab gives you the
status quo of everything currently mounted. Don't worry about all the
/proc, /sys and /dev items.
I think I am only missing /tmp, but does it matter? The rest of the file
system is ext4
In the end, you might want to install a kernel with
realtime preemtion.
Since it's kubuntustudio, I exptect they have a preemt kernel in their
package repos.
I am using a lowlatency kernel in a normal kubuntu with kxstudio repos,
not ubuntustudio. Is that a problem?
thanks
