FS#40 - real-time, low latency kernel support

I was very happy to see both qjackctl and zynaddsubfx as part of the default elive packages so I presumed it was also going to come with a real-time kernel as I heard that, as of 2.6.18, this has entered the mainline kernel code. Sadly this doesn’t seem to be the case.

This is the biggest missing feature in elive for me, and other wannabe Linux musicians too I’d think. If real-time support can’t be enabled it the primary elive kernel for whatever reason then it would be great if it came with a second, rt-enabled one too.

enjoy a optimized kernel!

Sorry, real-time kernel is not posible to have for all the users, but you can compile your own with this little howto http://wiki.elivecd.org/index.php/Kernel%2C_drivers_and_stuff , compile a kernel is not really hard and with those steps are very easy, you have also this little howto for the real-time stuff http://www.muse-sequencer.org/wiki/index.php/Realtime-lsm_module

Anyways, if you don’t want to compile your own tunned kernel, you can use a prebuilded kernel with realtime (a debian packaged kernel from another distro, how a musical distro)

Future Elive kernels: low latency + 1000 Hz + CK patches (realtime stuffs and better management of the memory, better reply of applications in hard work, etc)

Since the version 0.6.1 (dev) of Elive, all those things are included, good enjoy! :)
