Hi Chris,
The way to avoid this is to run PD with the -rt flag so it runs in
realtime. If you are still getting the xruns then you can try
increasing PD's priority using:
chrt -f -p 50 `pidof "pd"`
50 is the priority that works for me, but you might have to experiment
with different numbers.
I hope this information helps (I'm using Ubuntu Edgy too).

Evening list,
Today i tryed playing around with pd for the first time, and enabled
the audio system to use jack, which works fine except for:
If I move the mouse and it crosses the boundary between two windows, I
then get reports of Xruns from within pd in the main window and the
sound crackles accordingly.
Qjackctl does not report any of these xruns.
This is getting a little annoying and may leave me having to leave pd
for now as i need to utilise my mouse whilst using it.
I am running Ubuntu Edgy with a 2.6.17-rt kernel and jack as realtime.
If I do not enable the audio system within pd then this problem does not occur.
Any help much appreciated.
Chris
