I haven't tried the patches before since I experienced only slight jerkiness - probably due to running a very light environment. No desktop, only Enlightenment as wm. This on a PII 400. And no audio skips in xmms (oss emulation of alsa). Compiling 2.6.0-test1 with O10int first gave a definite smoothness when browsing heavy pages with Opera 6.02. But the real surprise came when I tried Baldurs Gate I under winex3. That oldie but goodie has been impossible to play with all 2.4-s and 2.5-s (and plain -test1) due to extreme jerks in sound, mouse and screen panning. Now... almost as smooth as I remember it from a WinDos machine! With music and all the sound effects! I'm almost speechless. What a job well done.
