For me, that aren't solutions, but ways to circunvent the problem, the problem |
| 24 |
is still there... |

Are you using the latest kernel? |
| 28 |
What are the drivers that you're using for sound? |
| 29 |
I have a iBook2.2 and I don't have any kind of problems.. |
| 30 |
the system is quite responsive, no sound "stalls/breaks" while compiling stuph |
| 31 |
with emerge. |

I've made a page when I used debian: |
| 34 |
http://mega.ist.utl.pt/~mmsf/ibook.html |
| 35 |
It's based on debian, but its mostly all valid, I still use those configs in my |
| 36 |
gentoo, maybe some day I adapt that page to the gentoo distro. |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
use Ben's kernels, they're quite good for ibooks/powerbooks. |
| 39 |
|

Also, xmms has a config option that says: |
| 41 |
Use real time priority if possible.. something like this, activate it! |
| 42 |
|

Hope it helps! |
