Hello, List Until recently I have been running SUSE 9.3 x86_64 with a self-compiled realtime kernel (using the realtime-lsm). I have now upgraded to openSUSE 10.2 because I was having difficulties installing the latest versions of certain applications. I'm very happy with the distribution generally, but I'd now like to get my audio performance back to what it was. Via the installation and set-up forum at jacklab, I have been directed to realtime kernel, kernel-source and PAM packages for x86_64 at: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/appleonkel/openSUSE_10.2/x86_64/ Have downloaded the packages but have not yet installed them. Unfortunately the thread dried up before it answered my supplementary questions. Firstly I noticed that the kernel and kernel-source packages have different release numbers. Does this matter? I need to compile the nvidia driver to get X back after the install. kernel-rt-2.6.19.1-4.1.x86_64.rpm kernel-source-2.6.19.1-3.1.x86_64.rpm The other point I'm confused on is how to safely install the RPM. Is it really as simple as rpm -Uvh or are there other steps. Does installing the new kernel wipe out the old one, or will it install alongside the default one?
