Hi All,
I made an install of ubuntustudio 8.04.3 hardy and am running a kernel
called 2.6.24-25-rt. I need to set the priority of my interrupts with chrt
but this does not work.
I read that I need a Complete Preemption kernel and assume I don't have. How
can I find out? How can I get a Complete Preemption kernel. Do I need to
build it?
Thanks a lot!
Martin

But I will check the links, thank you!

I don't know much about ubuntustudio, but do you really think it's a
good idea to run software that's over 1 1/2 years old?
In my experience, eventually you'll need to compile somethings that
needs a newer lib, and you're stuck...

But because of the library-problem when installing new apps from outside the
ubuntu-repositories its not a particular good idea either.
For servers and important production system the LTS versions of ubuntu are
great, for normal desktop and especially audio-workstations where you
experiment with new apps, the current normal version is better.

I chose this version because it is recommended by Ubuntustudio for
production critical machines and I know that I got all libs I need (in fact
I want to run only a single app - xwax).
But as I am not able to manipulate irq priorities in the standard kernel of
ubuntustudio I will have to build a rt-kernel myself anyway, so I'll maybe
choose another more lightweight distro...
ANY IDEAS which one is up to date but lightweight as it is for a 1Ghz
Pentium and I need realtime 4in/4out setup?
Thanks to you all!

Up-to-date + lightweight = Arch Linux!
Be prepared to spend more time than usual to set up though, since
there's not much hand-holding in the install process. Once you've set it
up to your liking its easier than the alternatives (for me, personally).
Oh, and its just about as close to bleeding-edge as you can get without
using svn/cvs/git all the time, so be alert to what's being updated at
any one time.

Hi Martin,
It is also possible to use 64Studio's kernel (2.6.29-1-multimedia) in
Ubuntu 8.04. It is complete preemption kernel. According to my
experience, it is much better than the rt-kernel of Ubuntu Studio 8.04.
Below is a link to my very much unofficial tutorial for upgrading
Ubuntu8.04/Mint5 to 64Studio 3.0beta. It's been working well here and
for the few others who have tried it out. I wrote it because 64Studio
3.0beta installer was not working with my laptop and this seemed to be
the only way to get 3.0 up and running.
Please note that I have not tried this with Ubuntu Studio 8.04, I cannot
guarantee anything. It might be better to try it on a clean install of
regular Ubuntu 8.04 (or Mint5).

If you want to remain with a popular package format (i.e deb), I hear good
things about Sidux. Could be lightweight too. 64Studio isn't really
"latest", but can be "up-to-date" depending on your software needs.

I have Sidux on the desktop PC here. It works well, although I'm not
doing much audio stuff with it yet. I have an Audiophile 2496 card in it
and haven't yet figured out how to make the mixer settings for it stick.
The problem of Sidux is that updating it can be a very hairy experience,
even if you use one of the scripts designed to make sure dependencies
are met and packages with known upgrade issues are warned of ... I
suppose the best way to update Sidux really is to download the new
release and reinstall. Or selectively update only those packages you
want to update.
Last time I tried upgrading the Sidux on the server, the script
proceeded to uninstall KDE3 and install KDE4, then try to reinstall KDE4
versions of the KDE3 apps it had removed. That effort was a massive
failure (there were damn few KDE4 versions of my KDE3 apps), leaving me
with neither a working KDE4 nor a KDE3. Fortunately, I had imaged the
system drive before updating, so I just restored the drive image and was
back a working system.
Even filtered through Sidux, Debian Sid can sometimes be as unstable as
Experimental. ;-)
