Thanks to the post of "thewade" I found on my machine: cat /proc/interrupts CPU0 0: 1320101 XT-PIC timer 1: 3169 XT-PIC i8042 2: 0 XT-PIC cascade 8: 2 XT-PIC rtc 11: 1311823 XT-PIC Intel 82801CA-ICH3, Intel 82801CA-ICH3 Modem, uhci_hcd:usb1, uhci_hcd:usb2,eth0, yenta, yenta, ohci1394, nvidia 12: 114 XT-PIC i8042 14: 51597 XT-PIC ide0 NMI: 0 LOC: 0 ERR: 0 MIS: 0 It seems that interrupt 11 is a bit overcrowded, but I have no clue how to put the USB bus to another IRQ. > Also, I load the realtime module with the parameter any=1.

If I understood correctly, the realtime module does nothing else than grant non-root-users access to realtime priorities. It doesn't change any further latency settigns on your machine. > p.s. Please guys help me with my UA-20. :-( I'm sorry, but I really have no knowledge to help you on this issue. Best regards ce ?Wer Visionen hat, sollte zum Arzt gehen? (Helmut Schmidt)
