on windows i measured a grid of ca. 11ms, or in other words the time between two key-events is a multiple of 11ms. on linux (ubuntu dapper without changing any settings) i measured a grid of 85.333ms. is this because of my x-settings or is pd on linux polling events only all 85.333ms?
It's because of your settings. Try "xset q" to see the current settings for autorepeat, and "man xset" for how to change them. Probably Gnome has a GUI tool for that as well, but leaning xset is good, too, because you could use it in [shell]
Ciao
the output of 'xset q' tells me:
auto repeat delay: 500 repeat rate: 30
these values seem to have nothing to do with the 'polling frequency' or how often keyboards events are received in pd from [key]/[keyup]/[keyname]. also when i hit a [bng] with the mouse, the timer measures allways a multiple of 85.333ms, which has nothing to do with the auto-repeat setting of the keyboard, or does it? this value seems to be quite big for a program that is used in a musical context.
does anybody else measure a different value on his system and knows how to change it?
"measurement"-patch:
[bng] | [t b b] | | [timer] | [print]
