Hallo, Frank Barknecht hat gesagt: // Frank Barknecht wrote:
By all I know, Ubuntustudio, Jacklab, Pure:Dyne and 64Studio already have limits.conf set up accordingly.
Or actually: I didn't check, so maybe they haven't (except pure:dyne, which has), but it may be worth to take a look at how they do it, if they do it, and if they don't, maybe indeed suggest a meta-package that sets limits.conf. A puredata package as well as jackd, ardour etc. could then recommend this package.
Just doing this for limits.conf would be trivial, but such a "tweak-realtime" package could also include some other stuff, like setting interrupts, checking for preempt in the kernel etc.
But to reiterate: IMO this is not something a Pd package should even try to do itself, especially out of respect for the various distribution policies.
Ciao
