Firstly, it sounds as if you may have hardware issues, or possibly an ACPI problem. Adding acpi=off to the kernel line of the appropriate stanza in /boot/grub/menu.lst will disable it on boot. This may or may not help depending on what the problem actually is. Secondly, Rosegarden works better on a kernel which is tuned for audio use (i.e. which includes realtime patches and uses the faster clock speed). If you're using vanilla ubuntu, I'm not entirely surprised to hear that some audio applications are sub-optimal. I would have thought that you'd need to follow the set-up suggested by UbuntuStudio, probably fairly carefully. While rolling your own packages is laudable it leaves you rather out on your own if you encounter problems, these days I recommend sticking with the available packages from the appropriate multimedia sub-distro for best results. Thus:Ubuntu -> UbuntuStudioDebian -> 64 StudioFedora -> PlanetCCRMASUSE -> JADand so on. cheers, tim/|\_______________________________________________Linux-audio-user mailing listLinux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
