Could you be more specific? It sounds like the problem I'm currently seeing with 2.6.26.6-rt11. I had problems with earlier RT kernels such as 2.6.25.8-rt7 occasionally locking up on my machine (in a way that das_watchdog wouldn't recover from but the kernel software watchdog would detect), but 2.6.26.6-rt11 has been running happily for three weeks now. The downside is that the MIDI port on my Audiophile 2496 doesn't work: trying to open /dev/snd/midiC0D0 always returns EBUSY, even when nothing else has it open, and events from it don't seem to make it into the sequencer. In addition, the snd_ice1712 module seems to have a reference count of 2 even when nothing has any of the sound devices open... -- Adam Sampson <ats@xxxxxxxxx> <http://offog.org/> _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
