Can you go into a little more detail on that? Is this a permanent change? Is Firewire no longer supported by the kernel? It's actually pretty simple. The kernel has a Firewire module in ALSA that conflicts with FFADO. We attempted to make Ubuntu Studio Controls compatible, but it proved to be impossible. In order for FFADO to work, one must blacklist the ALSA Firewire module in the kernel. This is something one must know how to do and be comfortable with doing, we can't do it for you. Basically, firewire devices are a crapshoot. If you plug it in and it just works, then awesome, glad it does. If it doesn't, sorry, but we can't help you get it working. Additionally, Firewire devices are ancient and no longer being manufactured. We are not in the business of reviving old hardware; that's not the purpose of Ubuntu Studio. So, going forward, we simply aren't making an effort to support Firewire devices because that would mean fighting with the kernel, which is not something our small team is willing to do. USB devices and PCI devices are the future going forward, because that's what hardware manufacturers are actually producing.

Re: rt kernel
On my maverick partition I did not see essential benefits against lucid, so I did an early distupgrade to natty. The actual kernel 2.6.38-7-generic gives me good audioperformance for live softsynths, live effects, wineasio/reaper, ardour multitrack recording on firewire, pci alsa and usb-midi, in no way inferior to realtime 2.6.31 and .33 kernels, good buffersize/xrun ratio. For tedious audio work on standard hardware I see no more need for -rt kernels. I guess there might be a little profit for audio performance by compiling actual kernel cgroups disabled, no tics disabled, preemptible kernel enabled and timer frequency set to 1000hz. In future optional manipulating devices' IRQ assignment and priorities like this was done by rtirq should be a feature for standard kernels. best regards Gerhard Am 03.04.2011 04:21, schrieb Scott Bohon: I am a newbie to Ubuntu and Linux.

Re: Kernel-rt issues solved, but configuring X still is a PITA
Hi Ralf, nvidia prop drivers for your card never will build with new rt-kernels. I see you compile customized kernels. I'd recommend trying 2.3.36.xxx and even 2.6.37-rcxx with preempt settings. They run here on a geriatric amd64x2 machine under lucid (10.04) ubuntustudio/kx mashing with proprietary nvidia drivers, full rt support. Only missing against rt-kernels is the possibility to adjust rtirq settings which as I see *possibly* *might* give *a* *little* benefit *only* for ffado/firewire devices. Nevertheless I hope someone will implemet this rtirq tweaking stuff into mainline kernels.

irq priority for firewire device
Hi, would it be possible to make something like rtirq working in a full preempt and noticks-disabled vanilla kernel without rt-patching? As far as I can see adjusting IRQ priorities seems to be essential for firewire-audio as long as firewire's IRQ-priority is subordinated at the low end by default, and if this could be changed in a user friendly way I'd see no more need for rt-patching kernels. I compared all kernel mods for audio live performance and recording in practice, and the only feature I really miss in non-rt-kernels is this rtirq thing. But I'm no coder and need guiding hands for understanding deeper kernel and os matters, so please bear with me if this idea should be foolish, misplaced or redundant/obsolete.

So tomorrow I'll have to do a hard job to make all my really existing kernels and Linuxes bootable again and those who are already bootable needs to get rid of those annoying boot splashes, unfortunately I didn't backup it myself. 2. I tried to play a MP3 by Movie Player, the PA setting meters show output, optional for one or the other of my two Terratec EWX 24/96 sound cards, but there was no sound hearable or visible for Envy24 control. 3.

On my stationary machine it finds all hard-drives, partitions, oses and every single Linux kernel.

With rt kernel 2.6.33.26-rt and jack2 (available i.e. in falktx ppas) and alsa updated to 1.0.23 all audio is fine.

[Bug 475706] Re: ondemand cpufreq governor broken on core 2 duo cpu
hi uboot, There is a script /etc/init.d/ondemand which automatically sets ondemand governor after waiting 60 seconds, so if performance governor is selected manually immediately after startup, this might be resetted and fall back to ondemand. By removing x-flag from etc/init.d/ondemand this can be manipulated, if one likes fan rattling and fried notebook cpus. Are you sure your cooling unit is broken?

Re: linuxrt package not standard in studio ?
Indeed, on my amd and intel standard systems there is no urgent need to use a rt-kernel. These actual generic and preempt kernels i.e. allow rt-activation in jack and there is not much difference in cpu-load against rt- or ck-kernels. Using these rt-kernels you get extended options to customize and optimize IRQ-settings an priorities; this may be interesting for the bleeding edge of performance tuning. But much more important is maximizing cpufrequency (fixed, no ondemand) by cpu frequency scaling for minimizing latencies and xruns.

Re: NVIDIA-drivers for the rt-kernel
Moin Hartmut, I was messing around with lucid's amd64 betas and some bleeding-edge ppas (not on productive partition ;) ) and suddenly Nvidia proprietary drivers stopped working. So I had to remove these ppas, downgrade all xorg stuff to lucid standards, remove jockey and all nvidia stuff besides nv, and installed last driver from Nvidia's site manually as described in many howtos. Now ubuntu's kernels 2.6.31-10-rt and 2.6.31-12-realtime again cooperate with Nvidia 172.14.25 and my old fx5200. I love this legacy card due to it's noiseless passive cooling.

Tx, but now after reading this article http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Cpufrequtils I first went another way and manipulated ondemand threshold, I edited /etc/rc.local as follows: #!/bin/sh -e # # rc.local # # This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel. # Make sure that the script will exit 0 on success or any other # value on error. # # In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution # bits. # # By default this script does nothing. echo 20 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand/up_threshold exit 0 cpu1 is linked to cpu0 on my amd system, if it were not I might have to add a second line for cpu1. By default 'cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand/up_threshold' showed 80 when running 2.6.31-9-rt. In 2.6.31-15-generic it's 95. Setting up_threshold as recommended in these articles to 50 or 35 did not do the job, had to lower it to 20.

Re: Need help
your -rt kernel seems to collide with the installed non-rt-version and doesn't want to overwrite lib/firmware/ositech/Xilinx7OD.bin But I think you will not need this firmware. In my customized kernel-builds I allways disable all functions in 'make xconfigure' I'm sure about they don't be necessary for my hardware. I'd try to reinstall the -rt kernel after uninstall the non-rt-version and if this doesn't work I'd compile again reconfigured without (may be for you! check it with lspci and lsusb) unnecessary drivers/firmwares. This rt-kernel works very good in my experimental karmic in an intel dominated notebook, the first one that gives me the option to disable automatic save-energy in the taskbar applet. I was not lucky with this rt-kernel in a jaunty environment on an asrock board with amd2x64, usb sound onboard and nvidia fx5200 graphics. good luck Gerhard teza schrieb: I guys, went throught the compil of new kernel rt,but got error with the install, just see below ternimal result, could you give us a hand?

Re: Which ubustu-configuration makes you happy at present?
Tx to all who made an exciting thread out of my whining, esp. Asmo for his engagement :) I'll give 64studio beta3 a try and since i need firewire essentially i'll try to integrate up-to-date ffado and jack. This weekend i'll free a partition ... In the moment for real work I freezed karmic alpha 3 with 2.6.29.6-1-rt kernel, customized jack 1.9.3 svn, ffado svn. This works stable and reproducable for my needs: jack-late...@~8ms, hydrogen, rakarrack, wine, wineasio, reaper with vst-instruments. Vst-host is less performant. Ardour 2.8...(without vst-support) brings jack earlier to the limits then wine/reaper!? Til now i had no success compiling ardour beta3. In Ardour beta3 64bit-version will be no vst support anyway. Sorry for not giving more input cause I have to do hard work for a living all the week. best regards Gerhard Gustin Johnson schrieb: asmo.koski...@arkki.info wrote: Asmo Koskinen wrote: Is it possible to use rt-kernel with 64 studio? They have added own rt-kernel to 64Studio. Use it, not one from Ubuntu's repositories if you like to test difference. This is correct, use the 64Studio RT kernel. One thing that is still missing is ffado, no ffado at all in 64Studio. 64 Studio 3 is still in beta, and is based on Hardy which also does not have FFADO support. Having said that FFADO will be supported out of the box for the final released 3 version. If you are impatient I believe there are some experimental packages for it. Don't quote me on that, since I don't use or care for FFADO. -- Ubuntu-Studio-users mailing list Ubuntu-Studio-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users
Re: zynaddsubfx, jaunty 9.04, bug with instrument ?
Hi Laurent, on my System 2.6.29.5-rt21 x86_64 Zyn... from the repos as well as a recompiled Version 2.2.1 to get a quertz virtualkeyboard run stable and allow live changing instruments and channels without xruns, crashes or disconnection when jack's frames and periods are set for latencies =4ms.

Re: Ubuntu Studio 9.04 locks Up During Updates and Network File Operations
On my stationary multiboot AMD64x2 pc in Jaunty I had heavy issues both with kernels -rt and generic: after some minutes 100% cpu load and use of complete ram (4g), extremly slow file and network operations, lockups... barely possible to read my mail. As hungry ressources-eater I figured out tracker assoziated prozesses and followed a recommendated - forgot the link - workaround run 'tracker-processes -r' in terminal, then delete the folder '/home/MY_USERNAME/.config/tracker/' and finally reinstall 'tracker' with synaptic. Now everything is running fine with full performance. Give it a try - only risk is that tracker will have to rebuild it's databases. good luck Gerhard deepee schrieb: Hi I have been trialling both the 64bit and 32bit versions.

gigedit not working as plugin in Linuxsampler/qsampler, only as standalone
Is anybody around here who has successfully installed q-, j-, linuxsampler with gigedit as working plugin in a US-64bit-environment? Qsampler and gigedit as standalone run smooth apart from some reproducable and preventable crashes, but not gigedit as plugin. My efforts to compile linuxsampler friends from cvs failed. So for this partial solution I was reliant on synaptic and googled (lib-)linuxsampler amd64 debs. Any hints would be appreciated.

Re: recognize chords etc. in audio files
Tx David, for the hint. Indeed, this seems to be what I'm looking for. Alas, in ubuntu 8.10 x96_64 clam, annotator, etc. neither are in the genuine repos nor installable from the developer's link as 3rd party repo. So I tried to compile them from sources. I'm not experienced with this, especially not with scons. There was an error whith the not available dependency libxerces27-dev, which must be replaced by an actual one. Compiled with a lot of warnings, nevertheless installed successfully and even managed to build debs. When I'm trying to run Annotator: error while loading shared libraries: libclam_core.so.13: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory, even so it's present in /usr/local/lib. I'm at the end of my rope, think I have to learn more about structures of system file localisation in different distributions. Is there anybody around, who was lucky to get Clam/Annotator running? Is it a problem in 8.10? 64bit? Does it work in 8.04? Now I don't want to give up half the way.
