Ok, i have a question to the list !

So it sounds like i have a similar problem:

This is my setup:

Planet CCRMA kernel 2.23 - ReDHat 8 Hammerfall DSP +
Multiface PD 0.37

It all runs......so far, but now PD crashes - i still
didi not find out when exactly.

I reinstalled  RedHat8 with Planet CCRMA because i had
the same clicks described above ! And i thought Planet
CCRMA would solve that.......It did only partially,
well, and now it crashes.......Bad Deal, inst it !


So .... I am a "professional user" in so far that i
was used to Macs before... I think PD is a great
system and i love the "Open Source" Idea
but...........

The system like that is unusable.....The Clicks are,
as far as i believe unacceptable and you have to be a
HArdCore Hacker to apply all those patches, and tuning
things........

I thought everything you can do to  avoid clicks is
included in Planet CCRMA, but it does not look like
that .....



So i dont want to complain, i just wonder if you on
this list just see it in a different way......

An Audio system with this high probability of Clicks
is actualy "not working".

Whats the use of a realtime-system if i cannot use the
mouse because it produces clicks ???


Or maybe its just the configuration....

So here is my question:

Does anybody have a running system (it means, no
clicks, no crashes, stable) with PD 0.37, Jack, ALSA,
Multiface, Hammerfall DSP ????

What can i still optimize, check if sthg is wrong ???


Thanks a lot

Regards


Luigi
