Where did you get "Debian Way" sources for 2.6.29? The last kernel I made for rt patches that was workable was 2.6.23 which I got prepatched from musix. Kernels I built for 2.6.25 and 2.6.26 had problems with IDE DMA and were too dangerous to use (this was for a via chipset MB). I am running an unpatched (none available) 2.6.28 without problems but have done no audio on it. Things play OK. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
