The Saga Continues.

I can't run the TV proggie cause the video card is exceedingly cheap (
avanclogic ) and that box doesn't have X on it.  I export Xapps to another
box.

Whenever I run the rgb16 program xsysstats pegs out for about 20 seconds.
I'm not much of a C programmer any more ( hell, I'm a Pascal prgrammer
from the days of Turbo Pascal 1 under CP/M  :-)  ) so I'm really over my
head... but I'm trying!  What I've done was stick a coupla printf's into
rgb16.c so I could see what was running when the load peaked.  It of
course peaks right after it writes the ppm header to disk.  The drive
light is only flickering so I dont think its disk I/O thats slowing it
down.

Occasionally I get a console error :

bktr0: ioctl: tsleep error 35 237d5c

The last number is usually different and I get 'last message repeated blah
times'. but usually only Once per rgb16 run.

Hints/comments are appreciated.
