Having taken a quick look at the dependencies, I would think that you can install Sid's current version (2.13-8) of util-linux on a Lenny system. This one includes /usr/bin/chrt. (The problem is that Lenny is still stuck at Etch's version of util-linux, which assumes that schedutils is available as a separate package.) -- Regards, | http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
