I've been using 2.6.10-gentoo-r6 with CONFIG_SECURITY_REALTIME=m using the patch from here: http://www.joq.us/realtime/ at the suggestion of someone on this list... and getting some good low latency in, say, jack rack. But, It seems there's more than one way to do this. I was _trying_ to find a patch I could apply to the 2.6.11 kernel for realtime pre-emption, but this isn't it, I guess. I know read about Molnar's realtime-preempt patches somewhere along the way, maybe even tried to apply them to the gentoo kernel sources, but this didn't work out. I'm essentially clueless in this dept. I also read somewhere along the way that maybe 2.6.11 isn't as good, yet, as 2.6.10 for audio. But I don't believe everything I read. Anyway, thanks for bringing this up. It'd be great to have a ready-made Gentoo realtime-preempt kernel. -- |\ /| | | ~ ~ | \/ | |---| `|` ? | |ichael | |iggins \^ / michael[dot]higgins[at]snet[dot]net -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
