[01:26] <tgm4883> Looking at this page seems to indicate there's still a linux-realtime kernel, but I can't seem to find it anywhere (all it says is to see the unofficial backports section. Is this something that still exists?

[03:21] <OvenWerks> tgm4883: this is true, there is no RT kernel in the ubuntu distro. Most of the RT patches have been folded into the mainline Kernel. The low latency kernel is quite close to the RT kernel while still able to use the same graphics drivers as the generic kernel.
[13:56] <tgm4883> OvenWerks: ok. I'll look for other ways to reduce xruns, already running low latency
[15:07] <OvenWerks> tgm4883: what kind of audio device do you have? USB devices often can be more stable just by changing the port it is plugged into.

[16:08] <tgm4883> I don't get  a ton, and this laptop's sole purpose is for audio, but it is pretty staticy when I get multiple people talking
