Left it going overnight, and this morning i have my own working realtime preemptible kernel! It installs, boots and works (nearly) fine. But... It still hard locks when i try and connect my midi port to anything with qjackctl. (and also wont let me log in, goes straight back to gdm, but i can live with that) So back to the original problem. I am unsure what to try next. Maybe, as i have two soundcards. one builtin and the cmedia one, and they each hav a gameport/midi connection on them, maybe they are providing conflicting irqs or something? As i said i am unsure and a little out of my depth. > I think you are on to something, there was an identical unresolved > report just a week ago.

Ok have just tried using the midi gameport on the builtin soundcard, and this works fine! No hard freezes or anything. But even now if i try and select that other midiport with qjackctl, it gives me a hard lock. Not that i mind too much now though, as i have working midi in and out. Been sat playing on Zyn et al for most of this afternoon... Chris
