As always when blaming someone it turns out this
has absolutely nothing
to do with the supposed culprit. Apparently, my lower-end Dell notebook
has a singing capacitor, which gets induced by the jack daemon calling
an interrupt, as indicated by the frequency of the noise problem
correlating to the jack buffer size. Interestingly, the noise is not
audible when the system is under some load.
My current approach is to find a load generator that will place a little
load on the system to make the hum go away while still leaving some room
for softsynths.
A simple load generator with low scheduling priority:
echo 'for ((;1;)); do i=0; done;'|nice -n 19 sh
Run it in a shell.
Stop it with Ctrl+C.
No need for kernel fix here ;-)

LMAO!!! I see what you mean after touching my heatsink. Actually, I'm in
the mood for some stir-fried vegetables. I'm also telling the landlady
she can take the stove out now.

Because solving problems is hard work and cooking eggs on computer chips
is easy fun? ;-)

Oh man, I thought other people were destined for the hard work, and I
was destined for the easy fun and the credit.

Well after promoting concerts I can assure you it is definitely NOT easy
fun... Especially since you put your name on the poster but nobody knows
what exactly you do there.
As far as easy fun goes... it's simply not very rewarding in my
experience. I'm a pain addict when it comes to work.
The other part, I read that in a book based on Machiavelli called 'The
48 Laws of Power' and it's so grotesque it's actually pretty funny.
After two years experience as a professional musician
(many decades
ago), I think anyone who chooses that field had better like lots of hard
work! I think "easy fun" is reserved for agents and concert promoters. ;-)
Wanna join my online community? It's empty so far, probably because
there's no music on the site yet. :) But we could really use some people
with experience in the business there.

If you wanna give me your opinion on the site and my marketing concept
(should be visible having a look at the site) feel free! The site's a
work in progress and will never be finished, but will hopefully bring my
music to many people in the meantime.

actually have a sense of humor in the community :)"
