Hi Lucio.


 Still running on 2.6.24.7-rt17 here, which is the last stable version
I could emerge (and which suits me fine). This was the version used by
pure:dyne last time I checked.

I tried 2.6.26.3-r3, and reported here that it broke support for MIDI
over USB. Other than that, and quite frankly, I do not tend to notice
a big difference in responsiveness from user apps, between two
versions of the realtime kernel ?

Cheers.
