Hi


Now I can confirm that the sound is good in 2.6 when
it's like this: "P_HAS_SEMAPHORES, 0".

However if I have seti running then the sound get's choppy
and even more so if I don't use nice -19 so I guess that this
is becouse of the new scheduler but I am not sure about that.

Could it be becouse the scheduler dose not see GM as an intreractive
process?

I also have the preemtive on in the 2.6 kernel, and I can imagine that 
this could make problems for users with a 2.6 kernel togather with GM.
