Ah, are two of the four ethx interfaces really the firewire port? I
wondered what they were.

Do you use the pro-audio overlay? I was, with rt-sources 2.6.16-29rt I
think, and had very regular lockups, just starting rosegarden for
instance, and zynaddsubfx falling over after playing a few notes.

I had some teething troubles but other than hydrogen crashing once,
64-studio has been rock solid and the performance has been excellent,
although I have to admit I haven't tried running it with an smp linux
image yet. I will be doing that this weekend and hope to give it a good
thrashing.
