Re my comment #5 on 2009-12-26: Rythmbox, Exaile, and Totem all are
able to play perfectly the .wav file which I made using Audacity on
vista. Audacity on intrepid can't play it without many dropouts. Looking
at system monitors processes during playback with Audacity on intrepid I
note that
Using Audacity to transcribe from audio tape to disc, the created files
show short skips/dropouts. I can get a run of two or three in 30 seconds
followed by several minutes without any. I'm running Intrepid (8.10)
kernel 2.6.27-16-generic, 3.2 Gib ram, dual core intel E7400 @ 2.8 Ghz,
about 300
