hiya,
...I grabbed the test11 of 0.37 and was surprised at the amount of lock ups I got on OSX...searching through the code, I found that the param.sched_priority "fix" has worked it's way into s_inter.c:833:848...if I remember correctly, this was a "fix" for audio glitches? The problem with using it and GEM is that it makes pd a higher priority than the window manager, and so it's very easy to get locked out, forcing a manual reboot! If audio people really need this (I thought the audio glitch was fixed elsewhere, too?), could we make a compile flag to disable this? Also would be a good idea to notify people who are using this current version and GEM to be ready for a lock out and sadness...
...which reminds me of a question I've had: does pd.watchdog only get invoked if using the "-rt" flag? I don't seem to notice it otherwise...and lately it doesn't print anything but a carriage return: is this correct?
l8r, jamie
