(pre-config for audio). It is possible you must specify what group can have access to realtime capabilities, something like : /etc/security.limits.conf @audio - rtprio 99 @audio - nice -19 @audio - memlock 500000 (Off course, yours users must be in audio group -verify the gid on your distro, here 81...) Additionnaly, you could simply use a user name. @ for group - 'wildcard' for all (you could write hard or soft only) and specific vocabulary things for rtptio, nice and memlock stuff. too, i had adjusted IRQ for my soundcards ;) (other things in you mail seems good, no ?) regards yvan
