With the nvidia kmod loaded, I get frequent ALSA xruns, which glitch the audio.  Running the alternative nvidia drivers found in Fedora just causes performance to drop substantially; I then get JACK xruns, and still have glitches.... This is both with and without the preemption-RT patched kernel.  But it was an older Fedora; haven't tried in a while, since I installed the Delta 1010LT somewhere else and began using a different audio interface on the laptop.

I wonder if this is a "missed interrupts" problem.
Is the mouse's IRQ shared with some other device?
