Looking at your /proc/interrupts it appears that your sound card ( HDA intel ? ) is sharing an interrupt with a usb port. It really it needs one to itself. Assuming your system uses grub bootloader, as root-user edit the file /boot/grub/menu.lst and add the following to the kernel line ( try one at a time and then both ) : acpi=off noapic so that the boot entry looks something like this ( my system ) : title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.24.3-rt3 root (hd0,4) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.24.3-rt3 root=/dev/hda5 ro acpi=off noapic initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.24.3-rt3 be aware that this may effect the power management facilities of your box. for example my desktop box no longer turns itself off on shutdown, i have to switch it off. hope this helps, best wishes G. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
