You mean the X + mp3 player + audio visualization test? X+Gforce visualization have problems getting half of my box in the presence of two other heavy cpu using tasks. Behavior is _much_ better than RSDL/SD, but the synchronous nature of X/client seems to be a problem. With this scheduler, renicing X/client does cure it, whereas with SD it did not help one bit. (I know a trivial way to cure that, and this framework makes that possible without dorking up fairness as a general policy.) -Mike - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
