Hi Chun,
First: yes, ALSA wants to be modules. Always. You can either compile the built-in ALSA as modules, or emerge the alsa-driver package.
Second: you need to tell the realtime module who gets to use it. The line "modprobe realtime any=1" allows any user to gain realtime privileges, or you can specify a UID or GID [user/group ID]. Or add the "any=1", "GID=n" or "UID=n" to your /etc/moudles.autoload.d/kernel-2.6
good luck, d.

Hi there:
Finally got round to install realtime-lsm on my newly install gentoo (kernel-2.6.9)
I got realtime-lsm form emerge and then added "realtime" to /etc/moudles.autoload.d/kernel-2.6. Upon reboot, realtime starts ok but when I try to start jack with realtime using qjackctl as normal user. I got a error saying
Cannot load driver module alsa Could not connect to JACK server as client
Does this mean that I need to have the alsa support compiled as modules for the kernel like realtime-lsm instead of compile into kernel?
Many thanks
CHUN
