I don't know about the ata3/4 errors.

When I was running FC3, smartd was failing for me also.
I ignored it.

You say you've "loaded" the ccrma kernel.
I take it you mean that you've booted in to it, rather than
just installing it, but still running in the original FC3 kernel?

the "play" command I gave in the original "DAW in 2 hours"
post should still work... if all your proper mixer volume settings
are up, but it sounds like you've done that, so I think
someone more knowledgeable is going to have to answer that.

Sounds like other things are wrong too, if your system is
just crawling along.  What does 'top' show as your top
CPU hogs?  What does 'free' show as your free RAM/swap?

I'm going to be out of town all this next week, with poor
email access, so won't be much help until the following week.

Good luck !
