I have rerun rtirq after adding the wifi card to the conf file and found 
that the wifi card is set to 70 while the snd card is set to 85.

There are a few interrupts in between for the usb and the video devices.

What I am seeing is a massive spike in xruns when running a gui app taht 
connects to jack (even qjackctl) but nothing when playing a track from 
the commandline ie mplayer -ao jack. This only happens if the wifi 
module is installed. Without it there are no xruns for days.

Unfortunately the snd the video device are on the same irq.

Does anyone have an idea for why the gui system would become unstable 
when the wifi device is added?



Cheers.
