====== Linux Audio Kernels ====== | Reanidg this makes my decisions easier than taking candy from a baby. |
| |
Towards vanilla [[http://kernel.org|linux kernel]]s for sound production. | |
| |
To achieve reliable low latency the operating-system needs to support [[real_time_info|real-time]] capabilities; a feature that some [more specialized] gnu/Linux-distributions provide. Tuning audio workstations is a delicate task, distributing these tweaks even more so. Wide testing is as good as impossible and it even gets worse with increasing diversity of hardware and setups. | |
| |
Motivated by [[http://www.linuxaudio.org/search/swishmail/realtime+kernel|Recurring threads]] on the LAD/LAU email lists and [[http://www.linuxaudio.org/mailarchive/lat/2008/8/21/147847|discussing with members]], linuxaudio.org is going to provide cross-distribution community support for packagers, vendors and users to make our case to the kernel community. | |
| |
===== Who ===== | |
| |
[[http://64studio.com|64studio]], [[http://goto10.org|goto10]], [[http://musix.org.ar|musix]] and LAD's for by the linuxaudio.org community. | |
| |
We're in the progress to set up infrastructure for collaboration. - Join the discussion at [[http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-tuning|Linux Audio Tuning Mailinlist]]. | |
| |
===== Goals ===== | |
* supplement [[http://vger.kernel.org/vger-lists.html#linux-rt-users|linux-rt-users]] with input from the audio community. | |
* quality control | |
* tracking versions and collect patches used by various distributors | |
* provide //signed-off// ''.config'' kernel configuration | |
| |
===== Services ===== | |
| |
Until further notice, all communications happens via the [[http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-tuning|LAT]] and [[http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-dev|LAD]] email lists. | |
