Try http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/suse/x86_64/kernel-rt-2.6.22.5-18.x86_64.rpm with http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/suse/x86_64/kernel-source-2.6.22.5-18.x86_64.rpm This is the kernel for the coming openSUSE-10.3 but it still works under 10.2. > > Secondly -- Oliver Bengs Key fingerprint = 8F45 91CA 4038 41D3 2FF7 8A65 D3A3 3358 A16E A024 http://jacklab.org _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/linux-audio-user
