That is very useful though I needed to do sysctl -w dev.rtc.max-user-freq=1024 (i.e. with the -w switch) I still had a problem when I tried to enable capabilities with the patch for jack. When I ran jack with startjack as a normal user, it ran for a short while then stopped (can't remember the error message now.. I changed back to the unpatched kernel and now start jack as root). Any hints on how to get this working would be appreciated. But overall, I agree, 2.6 is a great step forward. James
