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.
Many have had good success with:
Ubuntu 9.04
2.6.29-1 with ingos patch
built with preemption set to realtime and the timer to 1000hz.
As mentioned previously: 8.10 is to be avoided

If you want to do music with Linux just try a focused audio distro like
Musix, Jacklab, Studio64, and so on. (I've just tried Musix so I can only
recommend this one). But if you like to spend hours tweaking the system and
trying to get a stable and reliable platform for your audio production (as I
used to do) just try Ubuntu Studio. It's up to you.
I really love Linux and free software philosophy, and I've learned a lot by
reading manuals, books and being helped by the comunity. But I also have
learned that if you want to do music you have to know the right moment to
stop with the tweaking spiral and start doing what you like most which is
music.
Asmo, to be able to reach latencies of 3ms does not mean that I always work
at 3ms. It was just an example, just as yours with the 4ms jack-settings. I
usually work with 11ms just to assure the work I'm doing.
And please, let's help people instead of boasting. ;-)
Good luck!

Well said and I agree wholeheartedly. My system can do 1-2mS
consistently, but the ONLY time I use it is when I'm tracking. Other
than that I run at around 11 or even higher. Mixing/mastering and
everything else is done up there.
Real-time *latency* only makes a difference when we're doing something
that *requires* real-time. Other than that I like Jack at higher
latencies because it does a great job of making sure the music gets
through to where it needs to be, on-time and not corrupted.
1mS latency for listening to a CD? Why? ;-)
Cheers,
Mark
