Maybe rtcap does not enable enough realtime > capabilities!!? This is a possibility, it's a bug in that case, I have a vague memory of something similar being reported some time ago. As for running MusE suid, this is in itself not a problem unless your machine is compromised, in which case you someone use it to lock up the machine (which is equally true for rtcap:ed muse). The prospect that someone has bothered to find a security hole in MusE to gain control of a machine through it's suid usage seems a tad unlikely. /Robert
