Hi
I just upgraded to kernel 3.0 on my arch laptop. It's just the stock
kernel from the arch repos...
atte@vestbjerg:~$ uname -r
3.0-ARCH
Quick tests suggests that realtime audio works quite a bit better than
on 2.6.38 (I think it was before). I can run at 2ms latency without
xruns if only using renoise and 4ms without xruns while loading the cpu
with 2 heavy video file conversions (ffmpeg). Before I even got
occasional xruns at 8ms latency while using only renoise.
This is with my FA66 firewire interface on an 2.0Ghz dualcore laptop @
48000hz (64 frames/buffer and 3 periods/buffer).
Does others have similar positive experiences?

Also, does anyone have any experiences to share about the 3.0-rt
kernel releases? I've heard about crashes, and haven't dared try it
out yet. Is the rt patchset even needed anymore?

Define "needed" :-)
I've been running stock kernels for quite some time now, and the 3.0
series looks even better (as posted)...

It's not that you're wrong. If it suites you without RT, you might
decide you don't want RT patch, but you're not having full realtime kernel.

I run 3.0.1-rt8 32bit (on debian)
and it run stable for me. The versions
before -rt8 didn't run very well on 32 bit, at least for me. I cant
compare -rt8 with a mainline 3.0er, because I never run one. compared to
the 2.39.7er, witch is the only non rt kernel I have run the last years,
it looks to me that I can run rt8 with a higher CPU load without receive
Xruns, but that isn't a test-case in any means, it's just a feeling. :-)

My brief experience with Kernel 3.0 came with the discovery that it
doesn't support the NV video driver, and the Nouveau driver didn't work,
so my NVidia 6150SE stopped giving me anything better than 1024x768. I
installed the binary NVidia driver instead, but it's not properly
supporting the video card, either.
I didn't try it to see how RT performance went.

I believe that nv is deprecated and that nouveau is now the nvidia default.
Installing the nvidia-kernel source or dkms should work although the install
post-process can be quite frightening: Any files or diversions left over from
nvidia's proprietary install or done by user will foul it (though the results
might work anyway).
Rt patches have, however, made versions of these drivers uncompilable in the
past.

That was the vanilla one. Until an upgrade to X did away with the NV
driver, I had never used the NVidia drivers. I had never needed to.

Debian distros beginning with Sid no longer include the NV driver,
anyway, so those of us who insist on running "old" hardware that still
works and easily meets our limited needs will just have to put up with it.
