For a long time I have felt that there is an artificial disconnect
between "users" and "developers". Since when are developers not users?
Of course people want things to Just Work and will choose the path of
least resistance, but it's worth pointing out that in the case of
Linux audio the paths are neither straight nor understandable.

In the case of stuttering audio on modern laptops and desktops, a fix
was committed upstream last Tuesday. It may be integrated into Lucid's
kernel after sufficient testing. Certainly it will land for Maverick.

The best path forward is to file a bug against the alsa-driver source
package in Launchpad so that we have your specific hardware
information to effect workarounds and/or fixes.

Best,
-Dan
