Did you get any further with this? I had a look at the program, but
it's a bit of a hefty compile what with all the dependencies. Looks
pretty nice though!
I seem to remember rosegarden used to complain about rtc access (at
least it did in the past), but it never seemed to have a noticable
impact on performance (at least to my ears).
Thanks Ralf for the info on max-user-freq. I didn't realise this had
anything to do with rtc, but I did have to change it in the past to
get round some bad midi timing inconsistencies in seq24. Didn't know
the new way to set it.

Yes, followed the instructions by Ralf, seems to be ok now. Thanks!
Didn't realize this was a configuration step which has to be done still
these days.

Just some clarification as to the nature, Oom is based on MusE so the
same error can occur for us (with MusE that is).
I can see that the error message can be improved after reading Ralfs
reply, usually the reason is due to device file permissions, didn't
know it could actually be because of a value limitation. I'll give it
a look for improvements.
Also, having rtc timing is as someone noted not a strict requirement,
as it will fall back on the system timer, though on many systems this
is set too low.

Robert
