Hi, 

I downloaded the source rpm, it is still disabled there. Please, put a new 
.config in there as well. 

Moreover, the menuconfig is broken too : 

- -
Preparing scripts: functions, 
parsing..scripts/Menuconfig:
 
./MCmenu71: line 54: syntax error near unexpected token `fi'
scripts/Menuconfig: ./MCmenu71: line 54: `fi'
..done.


Menuconfig has encountered a possible error in one of the kernel's
configuration files and is unable to continue.  Here is the error
report:

 Q scripts/Menuconfig: line 832: MCmenu71: command not found

Please report this to the maintainer [EMAIL PROTECTED].  You may also
send a problem report to [EMAIL PROTECTED].

Please indicate the kernel version you are trying to configure and
which menu you were trying to enter when this error occurred.

make: *** [menuconfig] Error 1
- -

I have got this, when I entered the part related to ALSA (under Sound). It is 
not possible to configure anything related to ALSA with menuconfig, but 
xconfig seems to work fine :-(

I will enable SMP and highmem (the 4GB option) and test it.

 you can, perhaps (if time) I will take a look and fix it. It doesn't seem

Sure, but it is fixed already, as Chmouel noted. Just not released yet. 

 well, updated to latest main kernel+ fix the config issue.

OK, I will try, when it gets to my mirror. So far 13mdk runs fine with no 
hiccups here, even with highmem on. (dual 2.2GHz Xeon, with 1GB RAM and 
Quadro 4 900 XGL with nVidia drivers and Twinview enabled).

That's odd though, becuase jackstart works fine for me.  But I'm using

Can anyone else please try to run jackstart as a regular user with the 
mm kernel?

$ jackstart
jackstart: cannot get realtime capabilities, current capabilities are:

I have recompiled the kernel source ensuring that the preemptible kernel and

Erg.  You're right.  Same here with mm-smp.
(Many many appologies to Quel!)
That's odd, cuz I was using it two nights ago just fine.  I recently 
altered jackit-realtime and Danny recently updated the kernel, so I'm 
not sure what's at fault.  I'll try to figure it out.

I haven't tried the multimedia kernel myself, but AFAIK the capabilities
would be disabled by default, you have to enable them via sysctl?

Hmmm.  Danny never mentioned that.  In fact, running mm-smp-13mdk I 
don't see any references to latency, pre-empability, or capabilities in 
/proc/sys/kernel.
