Whats the word on this? Has anyone used it with PD? Will this reduce pops? (for example with cpu-loads of 20%, and jack set with a latency of approx. 5msec, I get pops when I drag my mouse or sometimes when things happen all at once)

The Realtime Linux Security Module (LSM) is a loadable extension for Linux 2.6 kernels. It selectively grants realtime permissions to specific user groups or applications. -unsnip-
The realtime LSM allows you to run programs with realtime capabilities as a normal user. In terms of performance it boils down to the same as setting pd suid root, but it is more secure WRT to hackers.
This is very good news, especially if you want to have realtime performance and high security at the same time.
In order to use this, Pd needs a simple patch. This is because pd -rt currently checks if it is run under root permissions, and if it doesn't it won't set the realtime settings.

In general, try
- serial vs PS/2 vs USB mice? (serial & PS/2 drivers may impose lower
CPU utilization than USB) Note than using a USB->PS/2 converter like those supplied with Logitech trackballs and mice has the same advantages.
- reducing the mouse reporting rate? (Some default to 400/sec. 70/sec
is enough)
Just tryin' ta help, Lex
