Thanks a lot Bengan, sounds very promising. I'll be running it headless,
although will need a screen to configure each device. Will check out
your link. All the best, Iain

Hi list,
Hi Lain,
I'm researching a project that requires a light-weight computer and
I'm considering using something like an Intel NUC NUC5i7RYH with a low
cost stereo audio interface such as a Behringer UCA222.
Will there be any issues running linux audio on NUCs such as this one?
Can't say that you're not going to run into issues but from my testing
with 2 NUCs they are fully comparable with a laptop (they're built with
laptop technology) as a computer. I'm running openSUSE Tumbleweed/Leap
now days on them and there is no issues. However. I would do a little
more research about the graphics driver. I've got some issues in the
past, but not now with Tumbleweed or Leap. Here's a link and the
discussion for the graphic chip for NUC5i7RYH.

Here's my two NUCs. Both have been tested with kxstudio just for the fun
of it. I used a cheap USB-card for the sound at that point. It worked
but I wouldn't do any serious audio with that one.
NUC5i5RYB (Media player for my TV running openSUSE Tumbleweed)
D54250WYK (small home server running openSUSE Leap 4.2)
Another thing I would check is if you gonna use a USB sound card, is the
interrupts. I recently purchased a Soundcraft Signature 12 MTK. It's my
first "real" USB sound device. It was definitely not just to put it in
and run it. I had to switch USB input so that It could be used with a
low latency kernel and to get rid of all the XRUNs. Now I run it with
23ms. Not as fine and dandy as my old trusty ice1712 but it's ok.
regards,
