Just built a custom x86 Real-Time OS with #Buildroot! 🚀

Boasts a blazing-fast 2-second boot on QEMU, now ready for bare metal. This #RTOS is super lean on RAM & CPU, perfect for embedded & low-latency apps.

Thrilled with the #LinuxRT kernel (6.12.57-rt14)! Check out the screenshots for proof.

What a journey!

Endurance test on a 2009 Atom N450 netbook! 🛠️
​This Acer Aspire One always failed on standard Linux due to a frustrating #kworker CPU spike, making it unusable. We're challenging that with #BashCoreZ_RT for 48 hours.
​Goal: Prove our extreme #PREEMPT_RT optimization can permanently eliminate this hardware bug and revive the PC. Superior software rescues vintage hardware. Wish us stability! 🤞
​#LinuxRT #KworkerFix #VintageTech #LowLatency

The **BashCoreZ RT** supremacy continues! We just tamed a 2009 Intel Atom N450 netbook (2GB RAM).

MAX Jitter hit an impressive **112µs** (-t1). The difference when scaling to 16 threads (-t16) was only 42µs!

This confirms it: our zero-bloat #PREEMPT_RT architecture minimizes scheduling overhead on even the weakest legacy CPUs.

We're bringing guaranteed #RealTime performance to obsolete hardware. BashCoreZ RT makes ancient PCs viable again. Zero excuses. 👑

#LinuxRT #LowLatency #Netbook

Checkmate. The final #BashCoreZ #PREEMPT_RT test is in:

On a budget 2-core Celeron N4500 laptop (250€), Max Jitter hit an insane **39µs** after isolating network noise!

This proves it: Hardware specs count for little. The clean, zero-bloat kernel is EVERYTHING. We're delivering near Hard Real-Time performance with minimal cost.

29µs on i7 vs. 39µs on Celeron? The difference is negligible. BashCoreZ RT is the definitive, free Real-Time solution. 👑

#LinuxRT #LowLatency #Celeron #MITLicense

We didn't just win; we dominated. The ultimate #BashCoreZ #PREEMPT_RT test results are here.

On a clean, budget MSI i7 laptop (500€!), Max Jitter hit an insane **29µs**! That's the true potential of our "zero bloat" kernel 6.12 base.

(Context: Our previous "worst-case scenario" test, with some apps running, capped at only 239µs. Competitors struggle to hit that clean!)

BashCoreZ delivers Hard Real-Time performance without the huge price tag. Get building. 👊🏻

#LinuxRT #Embedded #Trixie

BashCoreZ just proved it's the ultimate Real-Time base! 🚀

Tested the ultra-minimal #BashCoreZ (Debian 13 + Kernel 6.12 #PREEMPT_RT) using #cyclictest, remotely piloted from a #BashLabOS host.

Result: Max Jitter stayed under 240µs! That’s incredible determinism for embedded, robotics, and industrial control.

The "zero bloat" foundation truly eliminates noise.

Linux 6.12 Features Are Super Exciting With Real-Time, Sched_ext, Intel Xe2 & Raspberry Pi 5

... Last but not at least various drivers, toolkits, helpers, scripts etc.: #a2jmidid, #Cadence, #CarlaPluginHost, #CatiaPatchbay, #ClaudiaLADISHFrontend, #DDPMasteringTools, #Harvid, #klickMetronome, #LinuxRT, #MephistoFAUSTCompiler, #MidiMatrix, #MoonyRTLua, #rtirq, #qjackctl, #qsynth, #xjadeo

and so on.

That's what I come up with to say #ilovefs and acknowledge developers work. But there many more to mention.

As the #linuxRT kernels are provided by a TU, I removed them from #coderkunAURaudio:

The one remaining package #tuxguitar has been moved to #coderkunAUR which makes the audio repo obsolete.
