No, not the current kernel, as soon as you start audio production, even a PREEMPT kernel won't do the job, you need a PREEMPT RT. Kernel 2.6.39.1 might work. I'll switch to mailing list digest and instead of being on-line I'll do a production using this kernel, as soon as I set up Debian testing completely. I'm under the weather at the moment, so I'm neither busy preparing my Linux, nor I'm jobhunting (nearly as important, as preparing Linux ;). spinymouse@debian:/usr/src$ ls linux-image* linux-image-2.6.33.9-rt31_2.6.33.9-rt31-10.00.Custom_amd64.deb linux-image-2.6.39.1_2.6.39.1-10.00.Custom_amd64.deb > what hope do they have of using Ardour Using > AVLinux http://www.bandshed.net/AVLinux.html could be an option, assumed that there will be no issues regarding to the hardware and 32-bit is preferred to 64-bit architecture.
