Hey, it works for me. His (and your) mileage may vary. (He mentioned in his email that DMA was enabled, so clearly your advice was no better...) (And for the record, your man page says to use al least nice --18 "on systems that don't have UNIX International compliant realtime scheduling." I haven't read POSIX.4 or this "UNIX International" spec lately so I can't say if Linux 2.4.1X has it.) Oh, I did typo the fs argument, as there's no dash. Mea maxima culpa.
