I'd got so used to jack complaining when trying to use realtime, when it wasn't available, that I presumed it was still the same, and the kernel was realtime. I should have got used to the rt suffix by now, having used the patched kernels from planetccrma for so long. > > Sorry for confusing things - you can of course get realtime scheduling > without having an RT-patched kernel.

Do you know if there are any debian rt patched kernels available for other debian based distros, that might work on Etch, or Lenny? > --ll Thanks for the reply.
