Bug Description

Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6-386

Hi all, after upgrading Ubuntu 6.06 LTS to 6.10 Beta I experienced a reduction in the realtime performance of the kernel. Running jackd from qjackctl I experienced occasional XRUN errors when using the 2.6.17-10-386 kernel.

Reverting back to the 2.6.15-17-386 kernel (leftover from 6.06 LTS) made the problem disappear. Booting again from the new kernel recreated the XRUN problem.

Because the bug can be turned on and off by booting the "right" or "wrong" kernel I filed this as a bug for the 2.6.17-10-386 package. For the record, the 6.10 beta came with jackd 0.101.1. The jackd config created in qjackctl did use the RT option.

Regards, Pim

We are sorry that we didn't get to your bug report earlier, but the 18 month support period for Edgy Eft, 6.10, has reached it's end of life and we are marking the linux-source-2.6.17 task as Won't fix. However, please note that I am opening a linux task for the actively developed kernel. It would be helpful if you could test your bug with the recently released version of Ubuntu - Hardy Heron. You should be able to test this bug with a Live CD which you can get from http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download . Thanks again and we appreciate your help.
