bzzt .. You are so right!
# nice --10 audioapp [audioapp-options]
i couldnt decipher man nice / info coreutils nice so i googled to find
out [1]
The following nice command executes command-name with a lower
priority by raising the nice number by 5 units.
$ /usr/bin/nice -5 command-name
In the preceding command, the minus sign designates that what
follows is an option. This command could also be specified as
follows:
% /usr/bin/nice -n 5 command-name
...
Also I've figured that to lower the nice number I'll need root
priviliges. After patching my kernel [ok, downloading a patched kernel
;-P] to be able jack and friends as my normal self?.. or does this
patch changes the situation?
I seem also not to be able to connect to jack without being root
(although the app runs suid root... )
[time passes]
no, it doesnt change:
