Hi all :) thanks, someone helps in the forum and perhaps better than I would have done. I only have one remark. For my non-default 64 Studio it seems to be, that some broken packages, won't be noticed as broken. If someone with such trouble tries to fix a 64 Studio by "upgrading" all packages to the stable standard repositories, some packages might be not fixed.
@ Quentin: I only tested Windows with my old hardware, there I had a NVidia AGP card and no on-board card, but yes, at the moment I'm using the integrated Radeon with the Vesa driver, but I never tested this with Windows, because I don't like to install and reinstall a Windows all the time only for a test. The test with my old hardware was just because I needed to know, if e.g. the sound card is or isn't broken. I thought about that issue too, but I didn't think it will be such an extreme problem. Okay, I guess this will be the cause for the jitter, so it also won't help if I will buy a mobo with an integrated NVidia. I'll buy a NVidia PCIex card soon. Later is right now, so thank you very much :). Without testing I think we can say this problem is solved. There's still the troubles with the unstable Rosegarden and or QSampler and or Jack, when they are used in combination. Human jitter is musical, because e.g. for syncope always to early, never to late, it's jitter, but relative controlled jitter, one musician might play the syncope exact, the other some ms to early, but a computer can play the syncope to late. No comment to Windows, it doesn't matter if there's jitter or not. @ Gustin: "There is an open call to hardware manufactures to provide the kernel devs what they need to do the driver work for them." Gustin, we are talking about capitalists, they fear informations about their products slip away ;). I know that Linux people are fine with Linux, most other coders are more familiar with other platforms, especially from my generation. I'm from generation X and I think most coders for companies are from my generation and like me they came from QL, C64, Atari, DR DOS and MacOS (I'm not from QL and MacOS myself) and we can easy change to Windows, but not to Linux. That's not universally valid, but I guess it will be true for most coders working for hardware companies. Yes, I didn't compile a RT kernel until now, something I might think over. A lot of people, me too, aren't able to do perfect research about what hardware is fine with a Linux DAW and especially people like me haven't the money, I think most musicians have less money, that's why we are part time teachers, audio and video engineers, coders etc.. No comment to Windows, resp. it's better when using Windows not to use Windows 2000. @ Daniel: As I wrote above. Our timing jitter is human, that means that the failing is coloured by the emotions, a good musician won't have positive delay for a syncope feeling, he will always have negative jitter, jitter just in one direction, while a computer with jitter will have jitter without human touch. It's not correct to say human touch is jitter. You are wrong, don't believe me, but take a look at recorded waveforms, you'll see that I'm right. Good luck, if I would use Windows, I would use Cubase and an VST GIG players and because I'm using Linux, in this case also good look, because QSampler hopefully is stable, I think the troubles with QSampler I've got have to do with Rosegarden, but I don't know. @ Quentin: Don't worry, before I do anything, I read and try to understand your mails. I was on researches while I had some questions, I won't do the email receiving with my default install of 64 Studio, because the upgrade to Lenny is my internet Linux. Lenny is able to run internet applications that the default install isn't able to run. I won't do a Mozilla mailer partition for all my Linux, because there can be trouble with different versions of Icedove, it's better to do all with one Linux. At the moment I'm rebooting from one 64 Studio to the other. The DAW isn't the Mailer Linux. Playing all versions of Rosegarden are fine on all Linux I'm running, but playing and playing a virtual instrument at the same time or recording an instrument makes Rosegraden and QSampler crash and sometimes there are clients missing, so maybe also Jack crashes, but maybe the clients are missing because of other application's crashes. @ Will: :) is for self-irony, because of so many mails I wrote today, especially the post scripta. :) is for chance in the crisis. Maybe Muse's 64 Studio version is more the kind of sequencer I wish to have. @ all: Thank you again. On my wish list for 64 Studio 3.0, to jack_snapshot (easy to compile myself), I've to add a mixer (until now I couldn't compile any mixer), better less functional and stable, than unstable and multi-functional. I had no time to do what I wanted to do until now, maybe during the night or tomorrow I'll check out if the updated BIOS and e.g. Muse etc. are fine for my DAW. Cheers, Ralf
