i'm running itunes in the background, but when i open other apps or move the mouse, i get audio stuttering and glitching. now when i reset the pram and do the open firmware commands then boot into leopard, the stuttering isn't there. but if i shut down the mac or restart it after, it starts the stuttering all over again.

would this be an ssd issue or just an overall ppc problem?

running itunes 10.6.3
os x 10.5.8
powerbook titanium 1 ghz
1 gb ram
256 gb ssd

 
If you tried all the above, try reinstall of OS, but also create a new account and see if it happens there.. maybe home folder has corruption in it or somefin'
 
Have you used Activity Monitor or similar to see how much CPU iTunes is using? (it should be quite low.)

Is iTunes standard or bolstered by WebKIt?

Maybe try re-installing iTunes?
 
itunes is a standard install from apple using tenfourfox alternative.

i don't use webkit
 
i scrapped the leopard idea and tried the sorbet leopard and now i have a new ball of problems. so for this thread, i guess it can be deemed fixed?
