With only an afternoon of effort, i am finding this audio set up quite tedious. i was on gentoo which was not without other issues, but the audio optimisations were well documented and straightforward.

Perhaps there is a list of differences between ubunutu and ubunutu-studio that could be compared. Asmo, you seem to be quite happy... any ideas?

thanks for your help thus far, but i'm afraid the audio workstation is going to need a few hours of tweaking before my native-ubuntu is audio happy.

btw,

is anyone else having random lock ups with the "2.6.28-3-rt #12-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT RT" kernel. i'm on a lenovo r61 and this kernel seems to freeze randomly with no warning. Not worth the risk on audio recording or performances, eek.

thanks,

t

I had a lot of latency problems running Ubuntu 8.10 with a realtime kernel. And nothing changed modifying the limits.conf file and adding myself to the audio group. So I decided to install Musix. I think it is the best distro for audio-linux ever. At first glance it looks rather messy but it works as smooth as a Mercedes-Benz.

I've reached latencies of 3 ms. with no trace of xrun nor clicks in the audio, while in Ubuntu I just could barely get close to 25 ms which was insane. I cannot recommend anything else. Trust me.

Good luck!
