Public bug reported: Binary package hint: ardour
I'm running the latest karmic as of this writing (17-Oct-2009), and I'm using the 2.6.31-9-rt kernel. I launch ardour using the command "chrt 69 ardour2" to ensure it gets enough attention from the system. This worked flawlessly in Jaunty (with a custom-compiled kernel, though), but in Karmic I get: --- $ chrt 69 ardour2 WARNING: Your system has a limit for maximum amount of locked memory! This might cause Ardour to run out of memory before your system runs out of memory. You can view the memory limit with 'ulimit -l', and it is normally controlled by /etc/security/limits.conf Ardour/GTK 2.8.2 (built using 5396 and GCC version 4.4.1) Copyright (C) 1999-2008 Paul Davis Some portions Copyright (C) Steve Harris, Ari Johnson, Brett Viren, Joel Baker Ardour comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY not even for MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

Aborted (core dumped) --- This doesn't happen if I execute "ardour2" and then "chrt -p 69 $(pidof ardour-2.8.2)", so I guess that it is only at startup that Ardour's scheduling policy/priority is checked by glib. I guess the problem is really in glib, so I'll add it to the package list. I will recheck with the non-rt kernel to see what happens there. For the record, I'm also running jackd at a priority of 75, hydrogen (compiled from svn) at a priority of 69, and have increased the priority of the soundcard and rtc0 interrupts to 85 and 98, respectively [all of these with policy SCHED_RR].
