So far, subjectively I feel the best sound quality is when running on Ubuntu Server 22.04 LTS (low latency kernel).

But I have no sound with Diretta ALSA driver and Diretta DST-00 I2S-LVDS target. It's perhaps a problem of buffer access. Diretta ALSA driver expects RAW mode and perhaps Audirvana uses MMAP mode. I will try with Ubuntu Server 22.04 LTS today. 😉 Of course, I think it will not work with Diretta ALSA driver; I suppose. I suppose you have seen this? (I don’t know anything about installing this driver, but this is something that came up in a web search.) https://patatorz.com/docs/diretta-for-linux-installation-of-alsa-drivers/ One never knows, do one? - Fats Waller The fairest thing we can experience is the mysterious.

So would I be correct in thinking USB and UPnP/DLNA will work, but I2S/LVDS remains a problem? One never knows, do one? - Fats Waller The fairest thing we can experience is the mysterious.

I get a request error when trying to add my ZFS pool, which it can see. Just a note here to mention you later resolved this, in case anyone else comes along and wonders if there’s a solution.

Jud Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 16 hours ago, BudhaNL said: This is fortunate timing as my Roon subscription just ended and as usual I have issues with payment for renewal. 'Just' a key question: is it possible to install this on a Silent Angel Rhein? The Silent Angel operating system is VitOS based on Arch Linux. There currently isn’t a prebuilt package for Arch that I’m aware of, so installation would take a bit of Linux knowledge (assuming that the operating system as configured by Silent Angel allows installation of third party software). If you’re asking whether you could blow away what’s installed now and start from scratch (none of the preexisting software or features) with something like Ubuntu, then it’s an Intel motherboard, so yes it should be possible.

Popular Post Jud Posted April 18 Popular Post Share Posted April 18 Just checking Audirvana for Linux on various distributions, and thought I'd share a few of the tracks I've been playing. My favorite distro for SQ so far (entirely subjective) is a minimal install, no GUI, of Arch Linux. Sound quality is excellent.
