TO ALL: IMPORTANT I spent much of today confirming that the -rt fixed worked for me. It did. I did my damnest to kill it: played a flash game while compiling 2.6.25 with web-radio cranking. Performance suffered, stability did not - across hours.
So -rt fixes this for some systems. See my post earlier in this thread at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/204996/comments/52 ...for a newbie-friendly way of making -rt work. MY SYSTEM SPECS: Acer 3680 lappy, 80gig SATA drive, Intel-based sound, Intel Celeron single-core 1.6gHz CPU with a 533 memory bus, 1.5gigs RAM, Atheros WiFi, Intel945 video. With .25 compiled with no errors, I'm about to switch to that. Wish me luck. I tuned that kernel to eliminate hardware virtual machine support I don't have, picked my specific CPU, etc. This is a "semi-geeky" process that some people starting out in Linux may choke on, while the -rt thing is very, very safe to at least try and you can jump back away from it with a reboot if it goobers on you. -- Linux kernel 2.6.24-12 lockup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/204996 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
