hi all-
I've just been playing around with running softsqueeze on my FC3
machine. It plays fine, but whenever I do anything mildly processor
intensive like loading images into a web browser, the music skips.
I had previously had this trouble with xmms on this machine and found I
could get around it by writing a hack to launch xmms from a perl script
that automatically "niced" the process to give it kernel priority. Has
anyone experimented with nicing softsqueeze/slimserver? Should I be
renicing softsqueeze or slimserver (they are running on the same
machine)? I've experimented with both and neither seemed to work (I
could be doing something wrong). Also, is there another way to
workaround this issue?
cheers,
#!/ben
