[10:52] <dubphil> hi !
[13:30] <Russ> Hello, I'm new to linux and I'm trying to use qjackctl and ardour to record music. My computer is a fairly nice build(amd phenom II 955 x4 with 8gigs mem, asus mb). I'm using the on board audio w/ my computer speakers. I use a light snake xlr to usb cable to record guitar/vocals. The problem I'm having is getting x-runs about every 20 sec. Clicks and pops and sometime it doesn't show the x-runs but I still get clicks and pops. As
[13:31] <Russ> The cable is connected to a shure sm58 mic
[13:32] <Russ> I'm using the kernel 2.6.38-8-lowlatency. The only one installed
[13:34] <Russ> here some more info http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1763633.

[17:00] <dubphil> Hello ! My laptop USB device is not compatible with : 1) my soundcard 2) Alsa 3) the kernel ? I've spent 800€ for nothing, I'm disgusted
[17:01] <dubphil> my laptop USB controller I mean
[17:01] <orngjce223> Try #opensourcemusicians they generally know slightly more about hardware
[17:01] <orngjce223> I'm just here to answer the n00b questions. :/
[17:02] <dubphil> ok orngjce223
[17:02] <orngjce223> Sorry 'bout that
[17:02] <dubphil> I hope it is alsa or the kernel
[17:04] <orngjce223> It's probably ALSA's fault, most likelyu
[17:04] <orngjce223> But again, I know very little
[17:14] <holstein> dubphil: i usually suggest looking at AVlinux and/or gnuguitarinix
[17:14] <holstein> AV uses the liquorix kernel, and gnuguitar has its own custom kernel
[17:15] <holstein> and both are live distros, so you dont have to install them to see
[17:15] <dubphil> hi holstein yeah good idea I will test this
