artsd trouble

2001-04-19 Thread Ax
Hi, 
  I'm using deb/sid with Xfree86 4.0.3, and new kde (4:2.2-alpha1-1), but 
this problem is older... when I login to KDM, a session starts.  During the 
splashscreen computer freezes for a few seconds, then artsd pops up window 
saying that's overloading CPU too much and dies. But if I start artsd before 
I log into kdm, there's no freeze and artsd uses some 1-2% of cpu time. If I 
restart it from control panel, it uses all available CPU, and then dies with 
exactly same error message. Does anybody know how to avoid this behaviour?

Thanks, 
   Ax

Hi,

Are you using the same command line options?   Here artsd uses:

-F 10 -S 4096

AFAIK the realtime priority is now on by default.  Just to make sure,
from a Konsole window:

artsd   ... same options as used by login script ...
and
artswrapper ...   ...

don't have the problem.

Btw. what soundcard?  Do you use ALSA or OSS?  What does artsd write to
~/.xsession-errors when it does not work during login?

artsd works fine...

 and
   artswrapper ...   ...

here goes the trouble... 

'artswrapper -F 13 -S 4096 -a oss -d -b 16 -s 60 -m artsmessage' causes 
trouble, without the -d (full duplex) it works fine. artsd works fine in both
cases. I can live w/o full duplex now, but will need it in near future...



 Btw. what soundcard?  Do you use ALSA or OSS?  What does artsd write to
Ensoniq ES1371 based SoundBlaster64 w. standard kernel driver.

 ~/.xsession-errors when it does not work during login?
nothing special.


Thanks for the info  
Ax
