In linux, interrupt handlers and their children are not processes and thus don't have a priority. If they claim the processor, they'll get it. So just ajusting the polling frequency should do. I don't know how uzix does this. UZIX processes have priority. You can use a daemon

UZIX is multi-threaded. JoyNet send could be a thread and JoyNet receive another thread. It's not a good way to do it, Maarten. On "heavy systems", like a PC, it's a good solution. But on MSX, that has limited memory and clockspeed, it's not. You're wasting twice the
