Do you know a way to set the niceness of a process without typing renice at the command line after each reboot? Especially when renicing to -10, which needs to be root...
Problem : xmms skips sometimes due to the -ck patches ; I'd like to keep the patches, KDE is much more responsive, and setting xmms to -10 (everything else is 0). As a last solution, I'd cron a script as root to renice automatically, but I can't obtain a list of the xmms processes (' ps -A | grep xmms | awk "{print $1}" ' gives the whole line, same with 'cut -f1 -d" "' Thanks! PS : I've tried the schedutils, they don't seem t be useful. -- Christophe Courtois - Ostwald, Alsace, France http://www.courtois.cc/ - Clé PGP : 0F33E837 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- "Prior to MS Outlook, if you suggested to ANYONE that a mail client should be able to execute foreign code sent to you through e-mail, they'd have looked at you like you just grew an extra head."
