hello, 195.36.24 is the nvidia driver version i'm using. mainly because it's the version shiped with ubuntu 10.04. i don't know what 260 would offer better, but i think it's not impressive. most of nvidia upgrade is adding support for new card. anyway, if you don't use graphics for any important stuff, then you probably don't care.
i'll be interested to know your impression if you try this kernel for pd/Gem. Cyrille Le 14/11/2010 18:02, András Murányi a écrit :
i'm using Ubuntu Lucid with standard kernel (64-bit), and performance in Pd hasn't really impressed me lately... and WHOA i've just found a PPA with RT kernel (https://launchpad.net/~abogani/+archive/ppa/), which i'm very interested in - it's just that it comes with older Nvidia drivers 195.36.24 while the latest drivers from Nvidia are 260.19.21. Now does anyone know if i'll loose anything important with this older (but appropriately patched for RT) graphics driver? (btw i don't use graphics for anything important...)

I have realized lately that Fedora/PlanetCCRMA may not be the best linux rt distro out there in terms of updates for Pd. So I wanted to conduct a survey among pd-list members to know who is using what. It seems like Ubuntu Studio is the distro that's most frequently updated. Too bed because the last time i tried to install it on my laptop it didn't work... Any advice would be appreciated. I need a rt kernel, of course...
