Hello,
I looked at MythTV setup docs to see about the "new" way of giving
frontend realtime priority, instead of running it SUID:
http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-5.html#ss5.4
I've done exactly as stated, but I get this errors that indicate that
something is wrong:
Jan 11 00:00:01 htpc pam_limits[7390]: unknown limit item 'rt_priority'
Jan 11 00:00:01 htpc pam_limits[7390]: unknown limit item 'nice'
Jan 11 00:00:01 htpc pam_limits[7392]: unknown limit item 'rt_priority'
Jan 11 00:00:01 htpc pam_limits[7392]: unknown limit item 'nice'
Kernel is 2.6.15 om amd64 so it shouldn't be too old.
This is my limits.conf, in which you can see that the neither the
rt_priority nor the nice item keyword is stated.
# cat /etc/security/limits.conf
# /etc/security/limits.conf
#
#Each line describes a limit for a user in the form:
#
#<domain> <type> <item> <value>
#
#Where:
#<domain> can be:
# - an user name
# - a group name, with @group syntax
# - the wildcard *, for default entry
# - the wildcard %, can be also used with %group syntax,
# for maxlogin limit
#
#<type> can have the two values:
# - "soft" for enforcing the soft limits
# - "hard" for enforcing hard limits
#
#<item> can be one of the following:
# - core - limits the core file size (KB)
# - data - max data size (KB)
# - fsize - maximum filesize (KB)
# - memlock - max locked-in-memory address space (KB)
# - nofile - max number of open files
# - rss - max resident set size (KB)
# - stack - max stack size (KB)
# - cpu - max CPU time (MIN)
# - nproc - max number of processes
# - as - address space limit
# - maxlogins - max number of logins for this user
# - priority - the priority to run user process with
# - locks - max number of file locks the user can hold
#
#<domain> <type> <item> <value>
#
#* soft core 0
#* hard rss 10000
#@student hard nproc 20
#@faculty soft nproc 20
#@faculty hard nproc 50
#ftp hard nproc 0
#@student - maxlogins 4
# MythTV Realtime fixes
* - rt_priority 0
* - nice 0
@audio - rt_priority 50
@audio - nice 0
# End of file
Am I missing something here? BTW, I'm on MythTV-svn built yesterday.
Best regards
