[linux-audio-dev] RTC timer question

2002-04-04 Thread Maarten de Boer
Hello, I sent the following to the ALSA list, but did not get any answer, so I repost it here, hoping anybody has delt with this before. First, I noticed that the alsa rtctimer is not compiled when you have the RTC in your kernel as a module. The problem is in alsa-kernel/core/Makefile, where C

is anyone successfully using a laptop for doing low latency audio development? if so which brands and models? (i've seen rme-audio's list, but it's a bit outdated now). a few of the sony models look cool, like the r505. the ibook seems nice, no pcmcia though; are there any firewire or usb interf

2002-04-04 Thread Steve Harris
At least one person is dlopen-ing LADSPA plugins with RTLD_GLOBAL, and this can potentially cause problems with plugins that have clashing globals. Given that LADSPA plugins shouldn't be exporting global variables to the rest of the world anyway it would be better if this didn't cause any problem
