It does "work" just not smoothly.  Basically, I'm working on a simple audio
app. where I use gtk_timeout_add() to trigger a pulse or beat.  I then map a
slider to the timeout interval.  Unfortunately, the update seems erratic.
While moving the slider, updates are not always send in a timely fashion.
Instead, the update is not sent / received until I stop moving the slider.

I've done this very same thing (for a LJ article that never made it to print)
using the Unix setitimer() and signal() mechanism.  That works flawlessly.
It's inefficient here because I want to have a function AND it's data used in
the process.  The setitimer() and signal() technique only uses a function,
data has to be global.

Thanks,
