I tried setting the mythfrontend binary SUID. The output from top and
schedtool is identical to what I posted above. The log file shows that
mythfrontend thinks it is using realtime priority.
On another frontend that is not set to use RT the output from top and
schedtool are the same. Either I am not using RT or I have no way of
telling that I am. Does anyone know a definitve way to tell it
mythfrontend is using realtime priority?
Thanks,
James
