Linux Linux Kernel 2.6.21 has been announced. Linus writes: "So the big change during 2.6.21 is all the timer changes to support a tickless system (and even with ticks, more varied time sources). Thanks (when it no longer broke for lots of people ;) go to Thomas Gleixner and Ingo Molnar and a cadre of testers and coders." More info here and here.

Biteydog--- I do highly recommend rolling your own kernel for audio work. I was a complete newbie a few years ago and compiling my kernel was a daunting task, but it's actually pretty easy after the first couple tries. I guess what I mean to say is that changing the HZ setting from 250 back to 1000HZ is pretty easy (literally, the press of a few buttons) once you know how to roll your own.
