Regarding the rt kernel, it seems that the newer default Linux kernels 
seem to handle realtime audio quite well even without using a rt 
kernel.  I stopped using the rt kernel in Kubuntu 9.04, because the 
standard kernel seems to perform just as well, but without the 
instability the rt kernel brings.  Does anybody else have a similar 
experience?
