I'm starting to complain about it because I'm running a relatively low spec P3 + 310MB RAM on a crap soundcard, which used to work perfectly on the 2.4.27-multimedia kernel. I can only assume that the 2.6 kernel uses significantly more resources. I also remember that the 2.4 kernel wasn't really any good for audio until .18 and I know it's not something that is prioritised in kernel development. So I'm not entirely surprised. Still it's good enough to motivate me to learn how to compile my own. We're also starting to see P4s on the recycling horizon, so I may be able to upgrade the hardware soon. :) -- cheers, tim hall http://glastonburymusic.org.uk/tim
