Re: First trouble with core

Hi Marc,

Patch successfully applied and priorities are well changed. However, I still loose my mouse. In fact, this happens when I resize a window to a big size. I will try to investigate if there is some buffer overflow into nitpicker.

But, I have a question : IRQ thread into core process is still 0x10. May this cause trouble ?

Sure, on high load (e.g., large pixel-copy operations via CPU), an IRQ thread could be preempted at any time, getting delayed by a whole time slice of 10ms or even longer. Hence, boosting the priority of IRQ threads is certainly a good idea. The attached patch assigns the priority 0xc0 to these threads. Could you give it a try?

Regards Norman
