And rtc must: 3.1.) belong to group audio (as yourself) 3.2.) provide a usable resolution: Open a terminal and enter this: :~$ sudo bash password :~# echo 1024 > /proc/sys/dev/rtc/max-user-freq The latter is no issue, if you want that being set each time you start the system, put a line like this into /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh (make sure to have this on a new line and NOT between existing brackets...) echo 1024 > /proc/sys/dev/rtc/max-user-freq If your card is on its own IRQ and you have applied the priority script to that IRQ, xruns sould cease - if not, there is another problem to be solved maybe someone else could help, yet I think, it can only be the IRQ-Issue... sorry for not pointing you to this stuff, I thought, you had found out this already. All this and more tutorials for tuning Ubuntu for Audio can be found here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudioPreparation you do not need to do everything, that is proposed here, just to start. Once your card is set to its own IRQ situation should improve largely. So you can tune your system further while having the fun to have it basically working OK already ;-) hope this helps, good luck :-) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFFbhSY1Aecwva1SWMRAtPiAJ9tOPd/9+c9QIteVTHUB3AUE2ReBACcCfGY HkCZk31p1MxhpVmdrYB2BnQ= =6g1k -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
