Hi Jeremy
Well, I guess the 3.2 RT will work here as well, just kernels > 3.4
started to behave bad.
The main reason I would use later kernels, special >3.18 is, that they
have a big improvement in the nouveau driver. Lately the 3.19.0-rc5
detect my card correct and handle the GPU mem correct.

Hello Hermann,
Ah nouveau, as I'm using a fairly old nvidia card I'm not having any
issues with nouveau. But I can always try a newer kernel on my setup if
you'd like. Are you using the onboard audio or external gear?

Well, I'm not really having issues with nouveau, just those error
messages in dmesg
[ 21.627203] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: illegal object class: 0xa0b5

Which didn't appear with newer Kernels.
Also, I'm just curious about what going on in the newer Kernels, as,
when I set up this MOBO, it's a work station, no wireless, I've to move
down the road to older kernels, till I end up at 3.4.104, as the first
one which works smooth. I use a PCI Creative Labs SB Audigy, onboard
sound is disabled, but the Nvidia Card provide a Audio output as well.
I've connected my Monitor via HDMI cable.
With kernel 3.4.104 I can use pulseaudio(sink) in jack down to 128
frames/period without Xruns,
but with younger kernels, Xruns appear randomness, regardless of use
even if pulse is suspend and just jack runs with a dsp load of 0.33%.
I've set CPU freq to performance (in kernel config), I ensure that the
soundcard own his own IRQ, boost the priory of it, disable
hyper-threading, disable irqbalancing, but nothing helps.
Non of this tweaks is needed for the 3.4.104/5 - rt kernels. They work
out of the box, even when my soundcard share a IRQ with a USB hub, no
problem at all.
However, as I said, I'm just curios about what others here use, I'm
perfectly fine with 3.4.105-rt129, but still I would experiment more
with recent kernels, and I like to find out what cause the Xruns, as I
like to use a newer nouveau driver, .
