[gentoo-user] Prioritizing mpd

2009-06-12 Thread Grant
When I use the medium quality libsamplerate resampler with mpd, my CPU is around 15% and all is well. When I try to use the best quality resampler, the CPU stays around 99% and the sound frequently falls apart. Can I give mpd CPU priority? - Grant

Further steps reveal something re the problem: (8) reboot: restart KDE: ok; (9) restart FB: Krusader 'open with' ok (yes, these repeat steps 6-7 in the previous msg); (10) reboot: restart FB : try Krusader: "Cannot talk to klauncher" ! (click to close msg box) when Krusader starts, 'open w

Yet another step reveals the locus of the problem here at least: (11) try to run 'klauncher' from CLI : "must be started by Kdeinit"; (12) restart in KDE, fix Krusader + Apwal ; (13) reboot & restart FB but without 'kdeinit &' in ~/.xinitrc : Krusader 'open with' ok ! So my problem seems to

[gentoo-user] Keyboard handling weird... in 2.6.30?

2009-06-12 Thread Paul Hartman
I don't know if it is from kernel 2.6.30 or if something else changed, but my keyboard does not behave as normal. It seems like the "key up" signal from the previous key is causing the repeat of the current key to get interrupted. This happens everywhere, not only in X, but in console as well. For

I'm having a strange problem on my Q6600 that cropped up starting with the 2.6.29 series of the kernel, and is still present in 2.6.30. Essentially, at all times, I have four nice 19 processes running, which for the sake of this post, we'll call "dnetc". All four cores are utilized. At this poi
