If you have a reasonably fast machine, this shouldnt be a problem; the 5.x branch can preempt that much thus far. Hence, youll never hear my music stop (1.6ghz athlon-xp, 512ram), even under the most extreme conditions (compiling, multiple programs opened on several workspaces), only time I hear it skip, is when im extracting a large bz2 archive, but I believe thats mostly due to the synchronous nature of the file system...just my 2 cents. - Julio Capote Wilko Bulte wrote: >On Sat, Jan 29, 2005 at 09:34:45AM +0100, Bram Van Steenlandt wrote.. > > >>Hi >> >>I am working on something that requires the pc to play mp3 continiously >>The pc does however has other tasks than this an once in a while the mp3 >>stops (when you start mozilla for example) >> >>with apple and iTunes he tune keeps playing no mather what you do (it is >>compiled into the kernel or something). >> >>Can I do this with freebsd, can I say something like: >>This program got to have 10% of the available cpu and disk time or >>something like it ? >> >> > >Have you looked at stuff like this in the kernel config (example >taken from 4.x btw): > >##################################################################### ># POSIX P1003.1B > ># Real time extensions added in the 1993 Posix ># P1003_1B: Infrastructure ># _KPOSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING: Build in _POSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING ># _KPOSIX_VERSION: Version kernel is built for > >options P1003_1B >options _KPOSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING >options _KPOSIX_VERSION=199309L > > > > >
