 | how's it going with 2.6.23-rt1? guess you're still experiencing the same
 | intermitent freezing problems?

 uname -a
Linux musix1.0r3b27dvd 2.6.23-rt1 #1 SMP PREEMPT RT Sun Oct 14 15:17:12 EEST 
2007 i686 GNU/Linux

No, those problems were related to Musix's minor bugs: Xorg --configure didnt 
worked if splashy was running ("fixed"), but, also it didnt produced freezes, 
I just pressed control+C and it continued booting... and the alsaconf problem 
was also a bug introduced by myself: when running on automatic mode, it used 
to stop "asking" something from a read... but I fixed those bugs and now 
there are no problems.

Because Musix 1.0 R3 test1 is changing so fast, I assumed that thoses errors 
where related to the 2.6.23-rt1 kernel, but, I wasnt right.

Also, Tapani, the kernel hacker, managed to patch 2.6.23-rt1 with aufs (now 
into our repos), so we will be using it from the Live-CD/DVD.

Sure!!
I should be on this mailing list! I am subscribing there right now.

 | every vote counts, I hope :)

hehe

 | cheers
