ah, it seems i'm not alone. i'm currently recovering myself from schock after returning from vacation and while trying 2.6.26.x-rt for the rentrée it all seemed to work fine except omg... midi timing is a wreck, specially wrt.alsa sequencer. event delivery is completely fubar. i mean, completely. true showstopper, whatever :( cacophony seems to be the right word to express what it is. however, didn't had the time to check whether NOHZ is at stake. i'm certainly going back to 2.6.25.x-rt where things are still sane and pleasant for a while. btw, having NOHZ=y (aka tickless kernel) has been the norm here, since its inception byee -- rncbc aka Rui Nuno Capela [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-dev mailing list Linux-audio-dev@lists.linuxaudio.org http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-dev
