It's kinda odd... but this has simply never worked for me. My previous myth
setup on FC3 and my current FC4 installation simply refuse to allow realtime
scheduling of the display thread. I installed using Jarod's guide (and thus
Axel's rpms) but despite carrying out the instructions above (using the
appropriate path since the rpms don't install to the same place) I still get
this message:

Realtime priority would require SUID as root.

Any suggestions?

Cheers
