Ok no one is in a hurry to get to bed here, so I tried it. I disabled wireless by using the "disconnect" in NetworkManager applet; then I used sudo ifconfig wlan0 down to disable it.
I don't have a wired connection, though I notice eth0 is up as well. Anyway, I didn't touch it. So, the results! There are still some big latencies! I don't know if this is actually much of an improvement, though I guess it's a bit better in terms of how many larger latencies there are. I've attached the histogram, sorted once again by decreasing # of instances. For reference, the cyclictest command I used was: sudo time cyclictest --histogram=1000000 > his_without_wireless.txt I played about 8 minutes of music with no underruns. ** Attachment added: "his_without_wireless_sorted.txt" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/49059464/his_without_wireless_sorted.txt -- Wireless blocks USB-Audio, leading to dropouts https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/579117 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
