I have tried the kernel release v2.6.32-020632-generic from the Ubuntu Kernel PPA and it does seem to help a lot without compiling yourself see link http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.32/ According to the change log they did some work with the CPU time and other related areas that improved the speed.
I did re-compile the 2.6.31-16-generic x86_64 with the host timer freq set at 250Hz and while it did work better it did not work as well as the latest release from the PPA. The sound is still garbled with 2.6.32 and this may be due to the fact that the KTF is still set to 100Hz but I have not gotten that far into the new kernel yet. @sjalloq I found this an easier build instruction and it does work. http://www.howtoforge.com/roll_a_kernel_debian_ubuntu_way Also it is important that you remember that you will need to recompile VBox for the new kernel so you will need both the linux-headers all and the one that is specific to your build. If you have special video drivers they will need to be recompiled as well. -- Ubuntu 9.10 and Vbox 3.0.8-3.0.10 lag issue in XP vm. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/482486 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs -- universe-bugs mailing list universe-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/universe-bugs
