Hello. I am assembling a Digital Audio Workstation with a computer I built recently. It's a 1.8Ghz Athlon on a VIA mobo running Gentoo Linux 1.4. My audio card is the M-Audio Delta 1010-LT, which I bought specifically because of it's ALSA support.
The version I have compiled is 0.9.2 from the gentoo ports system. And my first impressions are terrible. Performance is aweful, with even the slightest GUI action causing the sound to drop out when playing a .ogg file from XMMS and ogg123. I have my kernel compiled for low latency and preemptive threads, which I assumed would improve performance. I followed the kernel building instructions on this webpage: http://myweb.cableone.net/eviltwin69/ALSA_JACK_ARDOUR.html I know that others are having good success with their ALSA drivers. So I'm not trying to flame this list. I really want them to work! I do have some experience with programming, so I'd help this project in any way I can. -l[e^2] ------------------------------ http://www.fallingforward.net/ people experimenting with music, art and technology ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Parasoft Error proof Web apps, automate testing & more.
