The documentation you are reading may be out of date. Honestly, the only reason you would need the IRQ stuff is due to a mis-behaving driver somewhere, right? I've never messed with it. As for /etc/sysconfig, that comes from Red Hat originally, I think. I fail to see the point of having it; /etc is already intended for system configuration files :) Personally, I no longer mess with all of this configuration work. I find the standard Ubuntu kernel under Dapper gave me reasonable performance. The Edgy kernel does not have real-time pre-emption enabled. At the very least, it would be easier to just re-compile Edgy's kernel with real-time preemption turned back on. As for your PAM configuration, this is what I use: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- @audio rtprio hard 99 @audio nice hard -20 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Then you just need to make sure your user is in group audio. -Forest
