Doubtful. Playback is fine with XMMS through long playlists.
I did add the 'no-hlt' instruction to lilo.conf, that definitely fixed a
problem with mouse noise. I've been experimenting with various settings
for JACK, I'll put a report together when I've found my optimal values.
I'm a little suspicious about the nVidia card/driver combination. Anyone
else using a gForce with the nVidia driver ?
I'm also interested in anyone else's settings, experiences with, or
opinions on using an SBLive with JACK.
Best,
