He, so I was not the only one who got the repeating key problems with
2.6.29-rt. I think I had other issues as well.
Now if only 2.6.31-rt was out already :)

I use a keyboard with midi over usb and the output is over a usb
interface, yet I haven't noticed any annoying delay. At the moment jack
is set to 16ms, which of course is more when you measure it, especially
with usb.
But besides saying that it should work I can't really help you :/

Regards,
Philipp
