thanks for the pointers. The setup of rt kernel is one of the main reasons I'm using planetCCRMA version (where nando manages to take care of these issues letting normal users access rt priorities). I am still baffled by the fact that I get synch errors from pd even when not doing any audio (no patch open. and these are not only the initial errors when launching pd). And also the fact that I can get good audio playback reliably from snd (soundeditor). Doesn't that suggest that the problem is not with jack/firewire but perhaps with pd?

I used to have to run Pd + JACK as -rt under sudo or root on Linux to get good performance. Maybe there's another way with permissions and groups and such, it's been a while since I fooled with it.

Hi Oded, sorry if it sounds obvious, but have you tried starting Pd with the flag -rt?
the flag will set Pd to get an actual real-time priority.

Yes, I'm using the rt-kernel from planet CCRMA.
