David - not picking on you in any way, just want to get the message out there even more clearly: nice(1) has absolutely nothing useful to offer any issues connected with scheduling processes to meet hardware-determined deadlines (ie. your audio interface).

Its not just "not the best way", its completely irrelevant. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
