This cannot be fixed in the program itself, as it is not really a bug. While timer resolution (which is provided by kernel) has virtually no impact on your usual tasks (browsing the web, reading your email, even playing mp3s, where the notes are just prerecorded, not generated on the fly), for serious midi/audio applications, you need a high enough resolution that can guaranty that recorded/played back notes are exactly on queue, not a little bit later. For example, if 3 notes are supposed to be played at (arbitrary unit) 0.058, 0.059, and 0.06... If your timer resolution is 0.01, then all these 3 notes will be played together at 0.06. So your arpeggio gets turned into a flat chord on playback! To play this arpeggio properly, you would need a higher resolution timer (0.001 or less).
So, what the program is saying when you get this error message is: "Sorry but your current kernel does not provide a fast enough timer for proper operations". And there is nothing the program itself can do about it, you just need a different kernel. -- error when opening Rosegarden program: "System timer resolution is too low" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/67568 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
