I'm using self-built RT kernels on Ubuntu 12.04 and that works great: http://wiki.linuxaudio.org/wiki/system_configuration#build_your_own_real-time_kernel And are you using rtirq? Alessio Abogani stopped maintaining th RT kernels for Ubuntu quite a while ago. You might want to ask falkTX about the possibilities of offering a raring RT kernel. Best, Jeremy
