I just installed the real time kernel in L. Mint and followed a few 
Ubuntu based threads on how to set priorities, Audio User Group, blah, 
but am not seeing any improvement in latency.

I do find trying to configure Linux audio is a p1ss poor experience.

Needless to say, I have managed to completely hang the OS quite a few 
times before giving up for the moment. When it did work, it was still in 
20 ms territory. In Windows, I can safely use about 5ms, which is 
generally OK.

Plus there's the problem with the MOTU XT parallel port version not 
working with Linux at all. Oh well.
