hm...

i just wondered about what was the posix realtime extensions in the
kernel and compiled them in (3.0-RELEASE). the VeryFunnyThing(TM) is that
cdrecord does not complain anymore about not being able to set realtime
privileges (cdrecord -vv ... shows that) and i can burn 4x with minimum
buffer watermark at 98% and x running with netscape, building a kernel and
simultaneously make buildworld and viewing ps files in ghostscript. seems
to work smoothly.

/k
