Can someone explain what use these extra kernels are? I've only found minimal info about these, and nothing that specifically states what makes them better than the original kernels. I see terms like "preemptive patching" and "low-latency" mentioned often, but no actual explanations about what these kernels would do on a normal PC. Is there any value to installing these kernels on a conventional system?
My take on the multimedia kernel is that it should be faster at opening new applications than the stock 2.6.3 kernel, and there should be less lag time (latency) or delays when doing certain jobs, but none of that is explicitly explained. I'd appreciate a bit of info on this.
Thanks in advance
Lanman
