Hello,

I have the problem for month now.
Read all postings. I checked the Schedtool and saw that you can swap the
sheduler in the Kernel for better results:

> SCHED_ISO [ patch needed ] SCHED_ISO was designed to give users a 
> SCHED_RR-similar class. To quote Con Kolivas: "This is a non-expiring scheduler  
> policy designed to guarantee a timeslice within a reasonable latency while 
> preventing starvation. Good for gaming, video at the limits of hardware, video 
> capture etc."

Maybe this can solve the Problem we face within the game. I did not test it
because the default kernel need to be patched and ck Kernel are atm
discontinued because of differences between  Linus Torvalis / Ingo Molnar and
Con Kolivas. (Which is imho a shame for all of us)

I will see to it if I find the time maybe someone else wants to test this Idea
if it solves the issue.

Cheers

Peter
