$ pacman -Q linux linux-rt linux-rt-lts linux 3.17.4-1 linux-rt 3.14.25_rt22-1 linux-rt-lts 3.10.58_rt62-2 No problems with 3.17.4 and all versions 3.17.<4 here, with one exception, building modules for the outdated virtualbox version 4.3.12 still works for kernels <= 3.16 (with and without rt patch), but doesn't work for 3.17 kernels. Building the virtualbox modules for kernels 3.17 works for current version of virtualbox, unfortunately USB is broken for all versions of virtualbox > 4.3.12. A while ago rt kernels > 3.8.13-rt locked my AMD machine, but that doesn't happen any more, e.g. the above listed linux-rt are ok, at least for non-audio work, I didn't used them for audio. However, some distros for good reasons provide LTS kernels, for Arch Linux it is $ pacman -Si linux-lts | grep Version Version : 3.14.25-1 Regards, Ralf _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-dev mailing list Linux-audio-dev@lists.linuxaudio.org http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-dev
